Legislator of the Year

The Public Policy Council is grateful for the hard work and dedication that our State Senators and Representatives undertake throughout each legislative session. Each year, the Public Policy Council selects one Senator or Representative who most embodies the League’s focus of alleviating systemic poverty for Colorado’s women and families and whose dedication to public service stands paramount. This award is a token of gratitude and recognition of the hard work and support the legislative community has in the advancement of the League’s Mission.

The JLD Public Policy Council is proud to honor Representative Lorena Garcia as 2025 Legislator of the Year!

Rep. Garcia has co-sponsored many of the bills supported by the JLD, including this year’s Healthy School Meals for All Program (HB25-144). She has been a leader in legislation designed to improve the lives of women and children in Denver and across Colorado. Thank you for your service, Representative Garcia!
