Paul Lundeen

Former District 9 State Senator

Terri leads powerfully on the marquee Republican issues. At the same time, she does something that escapes most legislators: she exerts meaningful conservative influence on every piece of legislation considered by the General Assembly.

During our time together in the State Legislature, Terri was a tireless, passionate fighter in committee and on the House floor against the Democrats’ bills that limited individual freedom and imposed their progressive, socialist agenda on our state.

Michael Allen

El Paso County District Attorney

As a lawyer and as a person deeply committed to protecting our communities, Terri was always my 1# legislator to do battle against the Democrats’ “soft on crime” bills. Terri was the legislator the Colorado District Attorneys Council went to for bills to increase criminal penalties and hold criminals accountable.

We need Terri Carver back in the state legislature! We need her leadership, her knowledge, and her ability to fight effectively to help restore sanity back to our criminal justice system.

Colorado Fraternal Order of Police

Representative Carver is a dedicated pubic servant and an asset to the district she sees to represent. Her community problem solving skills, knowledge, fairness, and dedication to doing the right thing for her constituents is exactly what our state needs to move in the right direction. Her respect, open access, and willingness to listen to the issues affecting Colorado set her apart from many elected officials. She recognizes that community bond with its government is an absolute necessity. She focused her effort as a legislator on true issues of concern to her constituents and citizens throughout Colorado, including transportation, public safety, protecting crime victims, human trafficking, wildfire mitigation, peace officer wellness, affordability, and regulatory reform, among other things.

Dave Donelson

El Paso County City Council

Terri was known for holding frequent town halls and listening to her constituents. I saw her in action, when we held a town hall together. We both just spoke briefly and spent most of the time listening to comments and responding to questions. Terri listened – and took action. Many of her bills came from town halls like this one.

Bill Wysong

El Paso County Commissioner

I lived in the area devastated by the Waldo Canyon Fire, during one of the most challenging times our community has faced. As our State Representative, Terri immediately stepped up in the aftermath, helping us protect our flood mitigation efforts from needless water court lawsuits and supporting efforts to rebuild.

Cory Applegate

El Paso County Commissioner

Terri Carver fought hard against the unfunded climate change mandates that are driving up our utility rates and worked closely with Colorado Springs Utilities to protect our city-owned utility. I know Terri Carver will continue to work hard to protect our El Paso County residents from the higher costs being imposed by the Colorado General Assembly.

Steve Durham

State Board of Education

As a member of the State Board of Education, I have had the opportunity to witness firsthand Terri’s commitment to the conservative principles that affect the education of our children. She has been a staunch advocate for civics education, school choice, and accountability. She has fought hard to preserve the rights of all parents to direct the education of their children, and to ensure the best quality education possible.
