Colorado Governor Polis delivered his 2024 State of the State address in mid-January, focusing on the issues that matter most to Coloradans like reducing housing costs, expanding access to transit and making Colorado one of the ten safest states.

“I challenge everyone to envision how we want our state to look in 2026 when we turn 150, and I am excited to continue working to achieve these shared goals. This means building more housing options for every budget, expanding reliable transit across the state, and improving public safety throughout Colorado,” said Governor Jared Polis. “If this work was easy, it would’ve been done already. I look forward to saving people money, reducing housing costs, and ensuring Colorado remains the best place to live, work, and raise a family.”
Focusing on housing, safety, and education, Governor Polis was joined by a Coloradan who has benefited from having an accessory dwelling unit on his property, two recipients of Nonprofit Security Grant Awards – who have used funding to make security improvements – as well as two Bright Spot Award recipients.
“The future of our state depends on our ability to work together to deliver real results to Coloradans,” said Governor Polis. “So as we prepare for the year ahead, know that the State of our State is strong. When we work together, nothing is beyond our reach.”
