(COLORADO) — On Wednesday, Nov. 6 Governor Jared Polis released a statement on the election of President-Elect Donald Trump and Vice President-Elect JD Vance. "Congratulations to President-elect Donald Trump. Colorado remains strongly committed to protecting freedom, choice, and the opportunity for everyone to build the life they want in our great state. That is true no matter who is serving in the White House and I will work with the President-elect however I can to save people money, create more good-paying jobs, increase access to housing Coloradans can afford, protect our water and air quality, and improve our roads and bridges. I hope President-elect Trump and Vice-President-Elect Vance take this opportunity to try to unite our country and set aside the campaign's divisive rhetoric. No matter what, the Free State of Colorado will remain a beacon that reflects the values of economic liberty and personal liberty that this country was built on, and we will do everything in our power to protect all Coloradans and our freedoms," Governor Jared Polis FOX21 NEWS ELECTION RESULTS PAGE Governor Polis also thanked Vice President Kamala Harris for her service to the county and the way she ran her campaign.
