Marchman Hosts Loveland Town Hall, Discusses Legislative Priorities

Marchman: “I look forward to continuing to fight for the issues that matter most to District 15 in the Capitol”

LOVELAND, CO – Yesterday, Senator Janice Marchman, D-Loveland, held a town hall at the Loveland Fire Station to hear directly from constituents and discuss priorities as the legislative session ramps up. 

During the town hall, Marchman detailed her legislation to improve behavioral health outcomes in rural Colorado. Her bipartisan bill, SB24-055, would better connect farmers, ranchers and their families to behavioral health care resources. Additionally, SB24-034 would increase access to school-based health care via telehealth, mobile services and referrals – which particularly supports rural and agricultural communities.

“It was great to connect with folks in the Sweetheart City ahead of Valentine’s Day,” said Marchman. “I’m laser focused this session on championing bills that support rural and aging communities, improve behavioral health outcomes, and bolster our schools. I look forward to continuing to fight for the issues that matter most to District 15 in the Capitol.”

Members of the community expressed concern about the potential increase in natural gas prices after the February cold snap. Last session, Colorado Democrats passed legislation to improve accountability and transparency for utilities while saving people money.
