I mean, he's trying to meet the needs of Colorado. So we've been focused on we talked about reducing taxes, removing barriers to housing. We also eliminated sales tax on a number of products. We implemented free universal preschool, which is a very big priority for us, preparing all kids for success. It prepares kids for success.
The long-term longitudinal studies show that, and I love your data point that data is important. It also saves families $6,000 a year in the here and now of four-year-olds. Preschool is very expensive. So really just trying to meet the needs of folks where they're at and grow our economy and prosperity.
I'm not an expert in coastal politics, so I can't.
I can't say all the factors. You're the NGA. I could talk more about what we did do, right? So, I mean, we also, in addition to cutting income tax, we cut property taxes too, and we capped any future property tax increases of 5%. So, you know, really just trying to address people's costs and concerns.
We've had a thriving economy in Colorado, and that's kind of, in fact, what led to the run-up in housing prices, right, along with the artificial constraints on supply that we're trying to systemically disassemble and allow more housing to be built.

And I was glad that my parents, who are now 80, did stay home a lot. And when they went out, wore masks. And that was very important.
I guess that's my point. I don't honestly remember what he was saying yesterday. during COVID. I don't remember if he was responsible or what he advocated during that. But as I said, on reducing chronic disease, improving health, diet and nutrition. These are the shoe job side for the American people, if that's what he focuses on.
And there'd be downside if he were to focus on making vaccines harder to get or reducing our vaccination rate.
Yeah, I'd be happy to grab a few. Let's let's we'll strategize. You know, nobody comes straight to mind. I'm just worried that they're going to fall asleep before they make it through all 16 of your principles.
Wes is terrific. Anybody else?
That would be great to get her, absolutely. So we'll strategize. I think we absolutely, this is not partisan. We should have a lot of great folks, and whether they're D's or U's or R's, they ought to be part of this, because this is just on the heels of another little conference called CPAC. You may have heard of it. And I said, you want to be bigger than CPAC, so you've got to grow next year.
That's the goal. You've got to be bigger, bigger than CPAC. Look at that.
