There is no doubt the minimum wage leads to increased labor costs among employers. However, economic research does not support the assertion that Denver’s higher minimum wage is the cause of the loss of restaurants Denver has seen over in 2024.

CCLP had so much fun at Colorado Coalition for the Homeless's Lobby Day!
Yesterday, the Colorado Coalition for the Homeless held its annual Lobby Day! Coalition staff, clients, and community members visited the Capitol to advocate on behalf of bills impacting people experiencing homelessness and at risk of homelessness. Advocates addressed legislators on three specific bills this session: - HB25-1032 - Improving Infrastructure to Reduce Homelessness - SB25-008 - Adjust Necessary Document Program? - HB25-1168 - Housing Justice for Victim-Survivors of Gender-Based Violence While Coalition staff advocate all session long on behalf of our top policy priorities—homelessness prevention and resolution, housing availability and access, healthcare, and economic justice—this is our favorite day of the session as it allows those with personal and professional experience to come to the peoples’ house and speak to their experiences. Additionally, Representative?Junie Joseph?honored the work of Colorado Coalition for the Homeless and Haven of Hope by having members of both organizations as guests on the floor of the House of Representatives. She also led a toiletries donation drive among House members and staffers, and the donations will be split between the two organizations. Thank you to the individuals and organizations who joined us, legislators who engaged with us, and especially to Representative?Manny Rutinel?and Representative?Meg Froelich who took time out of their busy schedules to welcome us.
