BONUS INTERVIEW: A Progressive Income Tax in Colorado is Coming to a Ballot Near You (Feat. Christina Soliz of New Era Colorado & Chris deGruy Kennedy of the Bell Policy Center)

Two of the state's leading progressive organizations are taking the fight for tax fairness and TABOR to the ballot in 2026

This week on the Get More Smarter Podcast, it’s a special interview-only episode! Jason was volunteering in Siberia on a sabretooth tiger preserve so Ian reached out to old friend of the pod Chris deGruy Kennedy and new friend of the pod Christina Soliz to hear about the initiative their coalition is working to place on the 2026 ballot that would cut taxes for 98% of Coloradans while raising them on anyone making over $500,000 per year. We get into the policy, the politics, the numbers, and the rationale for this push into tax fairness, and you’re not going to want to miss this interview!

That’s it for this episode!
