Families not Politics

Families Not Politics is a Colorado issue committee and coalition formed specifically to oppose Propositions 134 and 135 on the 2026 ballot. The committee is the primary organized opposition to the two measures, which would restrict transgender students' participation in school sports and prohibit gender-related surgeries for minors. According to state campaign finance records, the group has raised nearly $1.4 million to defeat the initiatives.

The coalition is led by LGBTQ+ advocacy organizations, including One Colorado, Rocky Mountain Equality, the Transgender Law Center, and Inside Out Youth Services, alongside reproductive rights groups such as Planned Parenthood of the Rocky Mountains and Cobalt. Major financial contributors to the committee include the One Colorado Education Fund, the Rose Community Foundation, the Planned Parenthood Action Fund, and philanthropist Merle Chambers.

In its public filings, Families Not Politics states its mission is to defend the privacy and rights of Coloradans by keeping politicians out of private decisions. The group argues that families and healthcare providers should have the freedom to make medical decisions for children. Regarding the sports measure, the coalition contends that Proposition 134 is vaguely written and could subject students to invasive scrutiny.
