Jenna Ellis says eight years ago, before the state lost its one-seat Republican majority in the Senate, the Centennial State would not have called to "Decriminalize Commercial Sexual Activity Among Consenting Adults."
That Republican majority had shielded the state from considering legislation like Senate Bill 26‑097, which she describes as "completely off the rails."
"The fact that this is being introduced in Colorado is no mistake," she tells American Family News, asserting more bills like it are on the way.
"They're not afraid to do these outrageous bills because they want to ... make this so outrageous that they'll be litigated and go up to a Supreme Court that will allow them," the attorney submits.
Ellis says Colorado is following blueprints set up recently by other states.
In Virginia, for example, there is an effort to change state law so that parents would not know what sexually explicit materials are in the hands of their students.
Senate Bill 19 would make key changes to Senate Bill 656, the 2022 law that requires school districts to adopt policies ensuring parental notification whenever instructional materials with sexually explicit content are used and allowing parents to review such materials and request non-explicit alternatives for their students.
The new proposal would narrow the definition of "instructional material" so that objectionable materials would no longer trigger the notification requirement unless a teacher assigns them. It would also "clarify" the scope of parental notification and prevent "censoring" or removal of pornographic books from school libraries.
In Seattle, Washington, activists have been publicly advocating for sexual relationships with children.
Since no state is immune to the Left's war on family values, Ellis says it is impossible to overstate the importance of local elections.
"State and local government matters just as much, if not more, than who the president is," she insists. "I think every state needs to be paying attention."
