A Denver Post report (highlighted by the Adams County GOP) exposes how Colorado home insurance premiums have exploded faster than anywhere in the U.S. under Democratic leadership. Average costs have doubled since 2020 and are on track to top $4,000 per year in 2026—now higher than California’s $2,455. Families are ditching vacations, delaying car buys, and facing quotes as high as $11,000. The post pins the blame on a toxic mix of skyrocketing property taxes, soft-on-crime policies that let roofing fraud and “storm chasers” run wild, open-border spending that prioritizes non-citizens over taxpayers, and the same failed big-government playbook that ruined California. It calls Colorado a “high-risk zone” on par with Florida and urges voters to hold Democrats accountable or watch the Centennial State become unaffordable for working families.
Spot on, @Adams_GOP! Colorado used to be the place Californians fled to for affordability and freedom. Now, thanks to one-party Democrat rule in Denver, we’re the cautionary tale. Skyrocketing insurance isn’t “climate change” or bad luck—it’s the direct result of reckless spending, property tax hikes, defunded cops, and a revolving door for fraudsters and illegal immigrants who get the red-carpet treatment while Colorado families get the bill.
When honest homeowners are forced to choose between insuring their house and feeding their kids, it’s not a “market correction”—it’s progressive governance failure on steroids. The same people who scream about “affordable housing” have made owning a home impossible.
Time to fire the Sacramento-wannabes in the state legislature. Vote Republican, restore law and order, cut the waste, and put Colorado taxpayers first again. The “New California” experiment is a disaster—let’s end it before every Front Range family is priced out of their own backyard.
