Building bridges across Colorado

​​“I’ve known Jeff Bridges for many years, and I’ve seen his commitment to public service up close. When Jeff worked for me in the U.S. Senate, he brought together Democrats and Republicans to save a program that protected American soldiers’ lives in combat. That’s who Jeff is. As a legislator and as Chair of Colorado’s Budget Committee, he’s shown that same courage, compassion, and commitment to working together that Coloradans expect from their leaders. Jeff Bridges will make an outstanding State Treasurer.”

—Ken Salazar, Former U.S. Secretary of the Interior, U.S. Senator, and U.S. Ambassador to Mexico

“I’ve spent much of my life in public service, including serving as Colorado’s State Treasurer, and I believe we need more people like Jeff Bridges in elected office. There is no better preparation for this job than the four years Jeff has served on Colorado’s Joint Budget Committee. That experience has given him a deep understanding of how to use Colorado’s dollars to expand opportunity and improve affordability across our state. Jeff Bridges will be an excellent State Treasurer.”

—Roy Romer, Former Governor and State Treasurer of Colorado

“I know what it takes to serve as Colorado’s Treasurer, and I know Jeff Bridges has what it takes. I’ve watched him lead with integrity, humility, and a deep commitment to doing right by people. Jeff is someone I trust, not only because he understands the numbers, but because he never forgets what those numbers mean for families across Colorado. That’s why I believe he will be an exceptional Treasurer.”

—Cary Kennedy, Former Colorado State Treasurer

“I’ve known Jeff Bridges for decades, and I can tell you he’s the real deal. Jeff has always understood that budgets are about more than numbers, they’re about people. As Chair of the Joint Budget Committee, he’s proven he can balance the books while still investing in what matters most for Colorado families. He brings both financial expertise and deep Colorado values to everything he does, and that’s why I’m proud to endorse him for Treasurer.”

— Joe Neguse, U.S. Representative for Colorado’s 2nd District

“I’ve known Jeff Bridges for years, and what stands out to me isn’t just his expertise with budgets, it’s his leadership. Jeff shows up, he listens, and he does the work with humility and integrity. I trust him because I know he’ll always put Colorado families first. That’s the kind of Treasurer we need.”

—Jason Crow, U.S. Representative for Colorado’s 6th District

“Jeff will make a great Colorado Treasurer. He’s smart, he’s tough, and he knows how to bring people together to get things done for Colorado families.”

—Ed Perlmutter, Former U.S. Representative for Colorado’s 7th District

“As a business owner and as a former candidate for Treasurer, I know how important it is to have someone who not only understands the numbers but can also turn them into opportunities for small businesses and families. Jeff Bridges has the experience and vision to make Colorado’s dollars work harder for all of us.”

—Betsy Markey, Former U.S. Representative for Colorado’s 4th District

“I know what it means to fight for rural Colorado, for our farmers, ranchers, and working families. Jeff Bridges understands that our economy is only as strong as the communities that keep it running — from the San Luis Valley to the Western Slope to the Eastern Plains. I trust him to be a Treasurer who invests in every corner of Colorado.”

—John Salazar, Former U.S. Representative for Colorado’s 3rd District

“I’ve served alongside Jeff Bridges for nearly a decade, and I’ve seen him lead with heart and skill. Jeff is a husband, a father, and a public servant who never forgets why the work matters. As Chair of the Joint Budget Committee, he helped balance a billion-dollar deficit while protecting Colorado families, schools, and small businesses. Jeff brings people together to solve tough problems and deliver real results. That’s the kind of steady, values-driven leadership we need in our next State Treasurer.”

—James Coleman, President of the Colorado State Senate
