Ms. Cooper told The Villager that she trusts Weiser because of his values, explaining, “He is concerned about people’s right to live their life as they choose without government interference, about there being enough water for Colorado’s farmers, individual freedom and women’s rights. He is very concerned about the opiate epidemic that’s killing young people. Phil has defended the Affordable Care Act and prevailed in the case of Colorado Department of State vs. Baca, protecting our election integrity. He is fair and he is brilliant.”
