My name is Daniel Kagan.  If you live in House District 3 (see map) I work for you in the Colorado House of Representatives.  We need government that is honest, effective and works to ensure opportunity for all Coloradans.  We owe it to our children to be good stewards of Colorado's resources, so we leave them the legacy they deserve.

As a member of the finance committee, I worked to balance our state budget and ensure that no deficit is passed on to our children.  That's right -- even in these challenging economic times, I am proud to report that our state budget is 100% balanced.  We asked everyone to share in the sacrifice to balance the budget -- including big business.  We closed their corporate tax loopholes to keep teachers in the classroom and class sizes small.

It is a priority to keep the business environment friendly, to ensure that we are attracting new jobs to the state, and ensuring that we keep the jobs we have created already.  We need to continue to make smart investments so we have an educated workforce and keep college within reach for middle class families.

I hope you'll find our views often coincide, but, whether we agree or not, please give me the benefit of your thoughts either by emailing me ( This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.

Sincerely,
