Letter from Jerry Sonnenberg - Colorado State SenatorRandy Baumgardner Representing Senate District 8 The Capitol Cowboy

Senator Randy Baumgardner is a leader and spokesperson for all of rural Colorado and has been a staunch defender of his Senate district.

He has earned respect from both sides of the isle on issues affecting transportation as he chairs the Senate Transportation Committee. Senator Baumgardner’s leadership is also evident in the Colorado House as Randy also chairs the Transportation Legislative Review Committee which consists of both House and Senate Members.

His leadership skills and conservative principles makes him an ideal chairman of the Capital Development Committee which is charged with overseeing the states assets. Senator Baumgardner’s work to make sure the money allocated for property be prioritized to first be spent on maintaining our current buildings before building new assets has led to better management of the state owned property.

Randy makes his living as a rancher so he understands what it is like to face the same issues as the people he represents and then uses that experience at the capitol to be that strong voice his constituents expect. Just like on his ranch, Senator Baumgardner’s work ethic is unmatched as he is normally at the capitol before anyone else arrives to make sure he is prepared for the day.

Very few legislative districts have the opportunity to support such a compassionate person that has proven he will give the shirt off his back and help those that need help, as well as being a conservative that has been recognized as a steward of your tax dollars.

The people of this district are educated voters and won’t let the out of touch recycled message by former disgruntled candidates to keep them from sending Senator Baumgardner and his leadership back to the capitol.

Senate District 8 has the unique opportunity to re-elect a true advocate for his constituents in Randy Baumgardner.

Colorado Senator
