It has been a busy few weeks for our team down at the Colorado State Capitol!

From hosting multiple client days at the Capitol, to watching bills move through committee, the pace of the legislative session is definitely picking up. Our team has been spending long days under the dome working with legislators, stakeholders, and partners to move important work forward.

And while there has been plenty happening on the policy front, the biggest news from our office might just be a new addition to the team. Iris recently adopted a puppy named Oliver at Humane Colorado’s adoption event at the state capitol, and it is safe to say he has already stolen all of our hearts.

As we approach the halfway point of the legislative session, we are grateful for the opportunity to work alongside incredible clients, partners, and lawmakers who care deeply about the future of Colorado.

We want to hear from you! What issues or bills have you been following this session?

Here’s to a strong second half of the session and many more days of collaboration under the dome 🏛️

Senator Winter was a passionate public servant whose commitment to improving the lives of Coloradans. Through her work on transportation, energy, civil rights, and environmental policy, she made a real difference across our state. Her courage, compassion, and belief in community lifted up countless families and individuals.

On behalf of the entire team at Aponte & Busam Public Affairs, we extend our deepest condolences to her children, partner, family, friends, colleagues, and everyone who had the privilege to know and work with her. In this moment of grief, our thoughts are with all whose lives she touched.

🎓✨ Huge congratulations to Jocelyn on her graduation from the CLLARO Capitol Fellowship Program!

We were incredibly proud to host Jocelyn as the first fellow in our office, and she set the bar high. From day one, she impressed us with her ability to quickly digest complex policy issues and turn them into thoughtful, impactful advocacy.

During her time with us, Jocelyn lobbied on a wide range of issues and truly immersed herself in the day-to-day work of the firm. Her dedication, insight, and passion for public policy were evident in everything she did.

We were especially honored to attend her CLLARO graduation, where she delivered an outstanding presentation on strengthening Colorado’s foster care system — a testament to both her growth and her heart for community impact.

We know this is just the beginning of a bright future in public service. Congratulations again, Jocelyn — we can’t wait to see what’s next! 👏🏽🌟
