Over the past year, we've learned a lot about democracy: how precious it is, how vulnerable it can be, and how much it depends on our collective power.

As CEO of LWVUS, I've seen democracy at work for years. And in 2025, I've also seen it under threat.

I'm sharing what I've learned, and how we can defend our rights in the days to come, in our 2025 State of Democracy.

We were pleased to welcome CEO Brad Buchanan from the National Western Center as our primary speaker for our briefing on the center Tuesday, February 18. We also heard a brief interview with Councilperson Darrell Watson, who represents Globeville and Elyria-Swansea, the neighborhoods surrounding the center.

Our council includes students from Metropolitan State University and Denver School of the Arts High School.
