    Ep. 24 - A New Conservative News Media Platform for Colorado... the Rocky Mountain Voice!

    Ep. 24 - A New Conservative News Media Platform for Colorado... the Rocky Mountain Voice!

    A New Conservative News Media Platform for Colorado... the Rocky Mountain Voice!



    Introducing the Rocky Mountain Voice, a new conservative news media platform for Coloradans to be the VOICE of your VALUES. 



    The Rocky Mountain Voice will report REAL NEWS to allow Coloradans to have the knowledge to make better decisions - in government and culture. We will be:




    Building Trust through  Truth
    Inspiring the Next Generation of Colorado
    Always Pro-Citizen, Pro-Liberty and Pro-Colorado
    Honoring our Heritage of Rugged Individualism



    One of the most monumental challenges that Coloradans face is that it's hard to find the truth. Not only is the mainstream media biased and controlled by the Left, but the right has few effective outlets for distributing the truth - lots of great individual journalists, and some regional resources - but not one platform that is the go-to for freedom lovers across the state. 

     

    The Rocky Mountain Voice will share news from other reliable freedom loving voices in Colorado, as well as our own original content.  We will provide citizens the information and knowledge they need to be educated and informed regarding policy and government, without the ridiculous liberal bias we haven’t been able to escape. 

     

    As a 501(c)(3) organization, the Rocky Mountain Voice will not participate in partisan politics. As a result, the outlet will remain nimble and call “balls and strikes” no matter the offender, R or D.

     

    The Rocky Mountain Voice will create and aggregate content (we’re not competing with other conservative news outlets, we're supporting them). We won’t be run on advertising dollars, subscriptions or paywalls. 



    It’s free – all the content, all the time. 

     

    Rocky Mountain Voice will consist of a robust, constantly updated, online news center,  RockyMountainVoice.com, with active social media engagement, podcasts, documentaries, and newsletters.  And it’s not just about news, it’s about community, it’s about having fun again as conservatives.  We’ll also host fun, engaging events across the state!



    Our Mountain Minute newsletter will be a quick 5 minute read on the news of the day. Our weekly RMV newsletter will be a deeper dive and a compilation of the news from that week as it’s critical to keep all of you informed as often as the news changes.

     

    Our goal with RMV is to provide reliable, quality news, build community and empower you as citizens!

     

    You ready to get our state back? Let’s do this, sign up for Rocky Mountain Voice at RockyMountainVoice.com to get in the loop and get ready for a fun, hard charging, game changing year ahead where WINNING Is the name of the game!

    💵 If you would like to donate to our 501c(3) to help us bring Rocky Mountain Voice to life around our beautiful state, please donate here: https://secure.anedot.com/rocky-mountain-voice/donate 



    We’d love to sponsor or attend events around the state as we build our movement and tell the stories of everyday Colorado citizens. Please contact us with tips on news, stories, and upcoming events you think we should attend.

    Ep. 23 - New Year, New Healthcare: Ditching the Bureaucratic Model in 2024 (Dr. Kelly Shockley and Dr. John Dygert)

    Ep. 23 - New Year, New Healthcare: Ditching the Bureaucratic Model in 2024 (Dr. Kelly Shockley and Dr. John Dygert)

    In the midst of the pandemic, Colorado's legislature pushed through a little talked-about state-controlled plan that would majorly impact the delivery of healthcare services in Colorado. Why are some elected officials so eager to change things and put the government in charge?

    Dr. Kelly Shockley and Dr. John Dygert joined me on Unleashed this week to discuss the problems with our current system and how they’re innovating a new healthcare future in our state. 

    The Truth Unleashed: Governor Polis and the Democratic leadership here in Colorado are on a mission to lead our state towards universal healthcare, or socialized medicine, that jeopardizes medical miracles with bureaucratic barriers and false promises for affordability. 

    The Lies Exposed: What’s so bad about the Colorado Affordable Health Care Option? Let’s take a look…


    With unintended consequences to quality and access, it may force hospitals to eliminate some critical care functions.
    Health insurance premiums in the individual market went up 10% during the law's first year (2023) and are expected to rise again next year, contrary to promises of affordability.
    Insurers are leaving the exchange market, reducing options for Coloradans, despite its promises of accessibility.
    So far, only one-third of the individual plans and 80% of Colorado Option plans on the small employer’s market are hitting the state's targets.
    Government control in healthcare could jeopardize the existing high-quality care and innovation in Colorado's healthcare system.
    Colorado Democrats have even taken a unique step by providing state subsidies to 11,000 undocumented immigrants for their healthcare needs.

    In contrast, a free-market approach to healthcare, combined with a direct primary care model, can offer a viable solution to our healthcare challenges. Here's how I propose we fix healthcare in Colorado:


    Embrace free-market principles and encourage competition among healthcare providers, insurers, and pharmaceutical companies
    Grow a Direct Primary Care Model where patients pay a monthly subscription directly to their primary care physician
    Remove barriers to entry for healthcare providers
    Promote price transparency to empower patients to make informed decisions about their care
    Educate the public about their rights and options in a free-market healthcare system
    Establish a non-governmental group responsible for monitoring the impact of these changes
    Allow medical professionals to keep achieving remarkable results without red tape, overregulation, and government control

    How can we take action?


    Seek Alternative Health Care Options: Consider exploring healthcare options outside the traditional medical system, such as chiropractic care like Dr. Shockley, concierge medical services like Dr. Dygert, or functional/integrative medicine that focuses on personalized, root-cause treatment.
    Advocate for Personal Health Choices: Encourage discussions, advocate for healthcare choices that align with personal values and principles, and seek healthcare providers who respect and accommodate these preferences.
    Adopt Healthier Lifestyle Practices: The current system thrives on us already being sick, so the best thing you can do for yourself and your family is to take control of your health! Implement healthier lifestyle choices, particularly in diet and exercise, and focus on teaching these values to your kids to instill healthy habits from a young age.

    Ep. 22 - Colorado Crime & Safety: How Bad Is It REALLY? (Former ICE Director John Fabbricatore)

    Ep. 22 - Colorado Crime & Safety: How Bad Is It REALLY? (Former ICE Director John Fabbricatore)

    How real are the statistics about Colorado’s increasing crime rates?



    John Fabbricatore joins me on Unleashed this week to discuss the implications of bad immigration policy here in Colorado that is leading to terrifying statistics like these. And yes, the stats are REAL and as bad as they let off. 



    The Truth Unleashed: Polis’ open border and sanctuary state policies are the major contributing factors to our state’s dire reality when it comes to crime and safety. 



    What’s happening because of Colorado's sanctuary state policy?


    We are one of the top cartel activity states in the country. They come here because of our sanctuary state status. Fentanyl is getting worse. Trafficking is a huge issue and Colorado is a hub for it. 
    Why? They know they’ll stay out of trouble because of our soft-on-crime policies. They know the state’s not going to report them to ICE. And logistically/geographically, Colorado is an ideal hub for drugs and trafficking with access to the southern border by I-25 and easy routes east/west through I-70. 
    Another big reason illegal immigrants come to Colorado is they know they can get a driver's license within a week of being in Denver. They use our resources and our taxpayer money, then take that DL elsewhere. 



    The Lies Exposed: Have Democrats taken it too far? Now that they’ve seen the dark side of the open border, are they just too afraid to go back on their promises and admit they were wrong? Here are some lies John exposed during the episode…




    ICE is not the bad guy. They are not dragging people out of restaurants or taking people from their job sites. They are busting drug dealers, cartels, and traffickers to keep us safe. 
    We are not anti-immigration. We are anti-ILLEGAL immigration. Jobs, resources, and taxpayer dollars should be reserved for LEGAL immigrants. 



    How can we take action?


    Get rid of sanctuary state policy so we can collaborate with federal agencies like ICE to combat crime. 
    Teach our children vigilance, confidence, and awareness. 
    Protect and support our Second Amendment.

    Ep. 21 - The Big Lie: Prop HH, Anti-Trust & Govt. Growth (Pete Sepp with National Taxpayers Union)

    Ep. 21 - The Big Lie: Prop HH, Anti-Trust & Govt. Growth (Pete Sepp with National Taxpayers Union)

    This week, we're diving headfirst into a hot-button issue right here in Colorado: Proposition HH. This ballot measure, an initiative being heavily pushed by Governor Jared Polis and his dark money groups, aims to destroy the Taxpayer's Bill of Rights (TABOR) - one of the most important pieces of legislation we’ve had in Colorado history - by eliminating the surplus payments back to taxpayers OVER TIME. While Prop HH claims to lower property tax in the short term, the long-term effect will cost taxpayers tens of millions of dollars in taxes. Heidi explains the repercussions of Jared Polis’ growth of government during his tenure, uncovering some of his contradicting stances on taxes during the campaign, as well as his reckless spending and future government aspirations.



    Heidi interviews Pete Sepp from the National Taxpayers Union on the importance of TABOR and why we must protect it at all costs, not just for Colorado, but for our nation. They also discuss Attorney General Phil Weiser’s involvement in an alarming anti-trust lawsuit against Google and why it should be a concern for taxpayers. 



    Remember to VOTE NO on Prop HH if you want to hold the government accountable for their overspending! If you have questions, please feel free to email me at heidi@heidiganahl.com or reach out to your local legislators.

Colorado’s voice for the people

Heidi is a honest voice for the people of Colorado who love freedom and equal justice under the law.

Lily H. Baca ,

Unleashed

Should be called Unhinged. This woman has no clue. She thought the RNC would be a well-oiled machine for her. Does she know what the N stands for? The Republican Governors’ Association might have provided some assistance had she shown she was capable of running a campaign.

Deranged

This woman is mentally ill - another conspiracy brained MAGA lunatic who is actively making everything worse.
