Colorado property
$501,045 at the county assessors' values, 1 parcel we matched to the property on their disclosures.
| Kind | County | Assessor's value |

| home | El Paso | $501,045 |
The county assessor's actual value (the 2025 reappraisal, an estimate of market value in mid-2024), from the state's parcel records. We match parcels by the owner's name where their office or race is, or by the legal description or address on their disclosure; we don't show addresses, parcel numbers or co-owners. Property held in a name we can't connect to them isn't here.
Personal Financial Disclosures
Income listed: up to $349,997 on their latest disclosure with entries: the top of each range they selected, added up (the form asks for ranges, not amounts; a range with no top counts at its figure).

Findings
Worth a look Late or missing
TRACER lists a penalty for a late financial disclosure (February 11, 2026)
The Secretary of State's campaign finance system lists a “Late PFD” penalty dated February 11, 2026 on their candidate record; its status: open, waiver requested. A disclosure is due within ten days of a candidate affidavit, and by January 10 each year for those in office; a late one accrues $50 a day until it's filed.
What to check- The penalty on the candidate's TRACER page (Penalties tab): the date, status and any waiver.
- When the disclosure was then filed (their disclosures on this page).
Rule: A penalty for a late financial disclosure
“A $50 per day late filing penalty that will accrue until the statement is filed”Form CPF-13 (Rev. 06/2026), instructions: Candidate Filing Penalties ✓ quoted from the saved copy · how this rule works
Context Late or missing
Their 2026 annual disclosure is dated September 7, 2026, after the January 10 deadline
As a member of the General Assembly, they file a disclosure by January 10 each year (January 10, 2026 was a Saturday, so we count January 12, 2026 as on time). The first we found for 2026 in TRACER's Document Search is dated September 7, 2026, 238 days after the deadline.
What to check- Whether they took office after January 10 that year (an appointment or a new judgeship).
- The document's date in TRACER is the date it was received or entered.
Rule: An annual disclosure after January 10, or none found
“The following state officials must file a PFD by January 10th each year 24-6-202(1), C.R.S.”Form CPF-13 (Rev. 06/2026), instructions: Annual Filing Requirements ✓ quoted from the saved copy · how this rule works
Context Lobbying
26 bills they voted on were lobbied by donors to their campaign ($200 from 1 client)
Clients of professional lobbyists that gave to their 2026 campaign took positions on 26 bills they voted on (their latest floor vote). The largest: Rocky Mountain Gun Owners ($200). Where those donors clearly supported or opposed a bill, their vote went the donors' way on 15 of 17. Two public records read together: it doesn't mean either one caused the other.
What to check- The bills and each client's position (Bills their donors lobbied on, on their page).
- Most lobbied bills draw clients on both sides; a vote with one donor can be a vote against another.
Rule: Bills their donors lobbied on
How this rule works
Context Income · the statement
No income from their office as State House District 22 on their 2026 disclosure
They hold office as State House District 22, which pays a salary, and their 2026 disclosure lists 3 sources of income (USAF retirement; Citizens of Colorado; Commercial Aviation) but none that is the office. The form asks for every source of income, an employer included.
What to check- The disclosure itself: whether the salary is listed under another name, or in an attachment.
- Whether they took office after the year the disclosure covers (an appointment late in the year).
Rule: No income listed from the office they hold
“List the names of any sources of income, including capital gains (whether or not taxable) for yourself, your spouse, and minor children residing with you.”Form CPF-13 (Rev. 06/2026), instructions: Income ✓ quoted from the saved copy · how this rule works
Context Late or missing
Their 2025 annual disclosure is dated October 3, 2025, after the January 10 deadline
As a member of the General Assembly, they file a disclosure by January 10 each year. The first we found for 2025 in TRACER's Document Search is dated October 3, 2025, 266 days after the deadline.
What to check- Whether they took office after January 10 that year (an appointment or a new judgeship).
- The document's date in TRACER is the date it was received or entered.

Context Errors in the record
1 error in their public record: a disclosure that doesn't say why it was filed
We found these in the records as filed or as TRACER lists them, and read each as meant (shown here so anyone can check the reading): Their 2025 disclosure doesn't say why it was filed: none of the boxes (appointed, candidate, annual filing, amending) is ticked.
What to check- The original filing in TRACER for each one.
- These don't change what we show: we use the amount, name or date as meant.
Rule: Errors in the record
