Yes for Colorado Kids

Issue committee supporting Proposition NN and Amendment 87

Yes for Colorado Kids is an issue committee formed to support Proposition NN, a 2026 ballot measure that would allow Colorado to retain excess tax revenue to fund K-12 public education. The campaign is backed by a coalition of roughly 70 advocacy groups and school boards, and is led in part by the Colorado Education Association, the state's largest teachers union.

The committee is the primary registered group backing Proposition NN. As of September 2026, Yes for Colorado Kids had raised approximately $2 million. Its largest financial contributors include the Colorado Education Association and Gary Advocacy, the political arm of the philanthropic organization Gary Community Ventures. While state records initially listed the committee as a supporter of Amendment 87, a measure to implement a graduated income tax, news reports later clarified this was an error by the Colorado Secretary of State's office and the group has not taken a position on that measure.

The committee's registered agent is Ashley Stevens. The group's stated purpose is to support ballot initiatives that increase state funding for public K-12 education, specifically advocating for higher teacher pay, improved retention, and smaller class sizes.
