GOV. RITTER PRAISES REP. MCGIHON
Gov. Ritter issued the following statement today praising Rep. Anne McGihon, who announced her resignation today:
"Rep. McGihon has been a tireless leader on issues affecting public health. Most recently, she succeeded in passing the revised Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Commission rules that focus on air and water quality. She helped lead the effort to create the 208 healthcare reform commission and has demonstrated a strong commitment to the uninsured. Her accomplishments in this arena are too long to list, but she has been a solid ally and her efforts have benefited all Coloradans, not just people in her district. I wish her continued success with her legal career."
