To see that the Colorado state constitution is amended to include pre-born from the moment of fertilization as having their "personhood" clearly established, so that they may enjoy equal protection under the law.
Life Counts!
The term "Person" or "Persons" shall include any human from the time of fertilization.
We have now entered the
"NO SIGNATURE LEFT BEHIND"
phase of the campaign.
Remember that every signature is a wanted signature. We need all the signatures that are out there and we need them now! Thank you so much for all of your hard work; now we must be diligent to gather up all of those signatures.
We will be holding petition notarizing events in different parts of the metro area coming up this weekend.
These will be times when you can deliver your petitions directly to the campaign and we will even have a notary available to notarize them on the spot!
May 6th is the last day for you to mail in your petitions. After that they may not get to us and your signatures could be worthless. You could overnight the petitions to us, but it would be best to just drop them in the mail today!
In special circumstances we can even come pick up your petitions, but please, ONLY AUTHORIZED CAMPAIGN STAFF can pick up petitions. This is very important for security reasons. So unless you hear from myself (Keith Mason) or Mike Burton, do not give out your petitions!
I hope to see you at one of the following events, please tell everyone you know that has petitions to bring them to one of these events if they have not mailed them already!!
We will be meeting at different Panera Breads in their community rooms at the specified times.

Campaign Staff will be there at 11 am to process any last minute petitions that come in. Parking is $8 for the day in the lot next to the hall or there are many meters near by. We will be delivering the petitions before 2 pm so this will be the absolute last chance to turn in signatures.
Come join the celebration, and march with us to the Secretary of State's office to turn in these petitions. You earned it!

Colorado for Equal Rights was founded with the goal of protecting human life. Every human being deserves equal rights under our laws, regardless of the stage of life he or she is in. Colorado for Equal Rights will stand up for the protection of every innocent human life... from the very beginning until natural death.
LIFE COUNTS!
Colorado for Equal Rights is sponsoring a ballot initiative for Colorado’s 2008 election. This proposed constitutional amendment will define a person in Colorado as a human being from the moment of fertilization, the moment when life begins. This amendment will establish a cornerstone for protecting human life in our society... and we all know this is the right thing to do.
This campaign is not about the power of money... it is about the power of truth. We are giving Colorado voters an opportunity to vote their conscience and protect the most innocent and helpless ones among us.
If life is protected from the very beginning, Colorado for Equal Rights believes that we can transform our nation from a culture of death into a culture of life. Therefore, we are taking the necessary action to allow Coloradoans to guarantee every person equal rights under our laws.
