Innocence
       There have been 156 people who were tried, convicted and sentenced
       to death who have since been proven innocent in the United States.
       A wrongful death sentence has happened before in Colorado and it
       can happen again.

Fair and Equal
       Our criminal justice system should treat all people equally,
       regardless of where they live, how much money they make, or the
       color of their skin.

It’s Time!
       It’s time for Colorado to repeal the death penalty – – no more
       innocent lives at risk, no more botched executions, no more waste
       of precious human & financial resources!

       It’s Time!


   Colorado’s death penalty is a failed public policy that is beyond
   repair. The death penalty risks the lives of the innocent, exacts a
   huge toll on the families of murder victims, traumatizes the guards and
   wardens forced to perform executions in our names, is unfairly
   applied, and costs millions in taxpayer dollars. A coalition of
   Colorado citizens made up of civic leaders, clergy, law enforcement and
   victims’ families are working together to advocate for repeal of the
   death penalty. Coloradans know that the time to end Colorado’s death
   penalty.
