Colorado Latino Agenda

A research initiative of Voces Unidas and COLOR

Launched in 2021, the Colorado Latino Agenda (CLA) is a statewide public research initiative co-led by Voces Unidas and Colorado Organization for Latina Opportunity and Reproductive Rights (COLOR) that publishes relevant and timely in-depth reports about Latinas and Latinos in Colorado.


The Colorado Latino Policy Agenda (CLPA) is our annual, nonpartisan report designed to provide insights into the demographic makeup and views of Latino voters in Colorado on pressing policy, political, and social issues.


The Colorado Latino Exit Poll is conducted every two years on Election Day to capture Latino voter trends, preferences and values.

2023 Legislative Scorecard released

Voces Unidas Action Fund released its 2023 Legislative Scorecard, tracking the votes of 5 local state lawmakers representing Garfield, Eagle, Pitkin, Lake and Summit counties against our legislative priorities during the 2023 legislative session.

Legislative Scorecard

At Voces Unidas, we like transparency. This is why we track and publish every vote by state lawmakers against our legislative priorities. We score every one of our priority bills and then rate each lawmaker based on their actual votes. We invite you to look at our scorecard and see how your lawmaker voted.
