Kevin Priola is concerned about the direction of the state of Colorado. He has a broad and diverse background in business, community service and higher education. He's served on two corporate boards and two charitable boards. He's the father of three young children and a husband to Michelle, his wonderful wife of 15 years. Kevin has been educated in finance and economics at the University of Colorado. He knows what it takes to get our Colorado economy back on track and to keep our energy prices down.
Kevin Priola is running for the House District 56. He has deep roots in Adams County, Colorado, going back 120 years. A strong community leader in the Brighton and Commerce City area, Kevin believes that "Our Colorado way of life is important. I'll work hard to preserve it for future generations."
Kevin will oppose new tax and fee increases and believes private property rights are important. Our free enterprise system is critical, and he will work to promote small businesses in the community so they can thrive, grow, and provide good jobs to the Brighton, Aurora, Bennett and Watkins communities.
Mr. Priola has farmed most of his life and understands how important water is to his district. Kevin believes in smart growth and will work hard to improve transportation and build more infra-structure to serve our growing area.
Although she is now focusing most of her attention on raising their three children, Kevin's wife also teaches in the public schools, like many in his family. Education is important to him and he will work hard to improve performance and promote parental involvement in our schools.
