The Colorado Union of Taxpayers (CUT) is proud to present the 2024 Colorado Legislative Taxpayer Protectors. These elected representatives have consistently stood up for taxpayers, defending your hard-earned money against the constant push for increased taxes and special interest agendas.

CUT works diligently to identify and support those in the legislature who fight to protect your financial freedom.

Taxpayer Protector Rating System
The Colorado Union of Taxpayers assesses legislators in both chambers of the Colorado General Assembly—the Senate and the House of Representatives—based on how closely their voting records align with CUT’s recommendations on key taxpayer-related legislation. Legislators are rated using a tiered system that reflects their level of commitment to protecting taxpayers. The highest designation, Champion, is given to those scoring 90% or above. Guardian is the next tier, awarded to those scoring between 80% and 89%. Finally, legislators earning a score between 70% and 79% are recognized as Warriors. This rating system allows taxpayers to easily see which representatives in each chamber are truly dedicated to safeguarding their financial interests.
