On this edition of the Mandy Connell Show, the conversation gets heated as Mandy dives into the proposed ballot initiative, Prop NN, which promises to increase education funding but may actually be a tax hike in disguise. Joining Mandy in the studio is Nash Herman from the Independence Institute, who breaks down the complexities of the proposal and its potential impact on Colorado taxpayers.

In this episode, Mandy and Nash discuss the proposed increase in the TABOR limit, which would allow the state to keep more tax revenue and potentially lead to a massive tax hike. Nash explains how the proposal would change the formula for calculating the TABOR limit, basing it on prior year K-12 education funding rather than population growth and inflation. This could result in a significant increase in taxes, with some estimates suggesting it could be the biggest tax hike in state history.

Mandy and Nash also discuss the potential economic impacts of the proposal, including the effects on Colorado's business competitiveness and the state's ability to attract new residents. They also touch on the role of the teachers' unions in supporting the proposal and the potential for a constitutional amendment to codify the right to hunt and fish in the Colorado Constitution.

If you're concerned about the future of Colorado and the impact of Prop NN on your wallet, tune in to this episode to hear Mandy and Nash's in-depth discussion. Don't miss their analysis of the proposal's potential consequences and the importance of staying informed as a voter.
