Absence of U.S. Rep. Jason Crow from 6th District during campaign has been noticed

Laurie Arnold, who lives in Colorado’s 6^th U.S. House District, wonders why her current representative, Jason Crow, is spending his time, money and energy campaigning for Democrats in Georgia, North Carolina, Delaware and Pennsylvania, rather than the people in Colorado’s 6^th District.

“Our district is falling apart, it’s crumbling. Jason Crow is so arrogant and he takes the voters for granted. He just assumes that he is going to win, even though he has spent no time in the district listening to the concerns that we have,” Arnold said.

John Fabbricatore, the Republican candidate in the 6th District, who is running against Crow, hears Arnold’s concerns loud and clear.

“I’ve been talking to people all over the district, Republicans, independents and Democrats, and I keep hearing the same thing.  Jason Crow is everywhere but in his district,” Fabbricatore said. “He’s in Indiana right now stumping for other people’s candidates.  He doesn’t want to do town halls, meet and greets, or debates.  He doesn’t even show up to events that are sponsored by local Democratic party organizations.”

Fabbricatore has spent his career in law enforcement; First in the U.S. Air Force as a security expert, and then for the Department of Immigration and Naturalization Services, and finally Immigration and Customs Enforcement, where he retired after serving as the field director for Colorado.

Through his listening sessions while campaigning, he said, “I’ve talked to a lot of people [on all sides of the aisle] who will not be voting for Crow. Tons of people are tired of him taking their vote for granted and getting very little in the way of representation for their district.”

Continuing, he said, “While he’s in the district, he spends his time in front of a media machine that allows him to mitigate the concerns that people have about the TdA presence in their community. “

According to Fabbricatore, Crow hasn’t had a serious contender run against him since 2019. “He, just like our governor, tells people they are moderate. They are not moderate. Crow’s voting record in Congress is to the left of Alexandria Ocasio Cortez and Cory Bush.”

While Crow has spent time convincing the legacy media that the TdA problem is not real, more than 300,000 children have crossed the border and have been lost and many of them victims of human and sex trafficking,” Fabbricatore says.

“The crime is horrible; it’s scary in our neighborhoods,” Arnold said. “The only time you see him in the district is when he is talking to illegal immigrants, who he calls his ‘constituents’ on social media. He seems to be representing people who can’t vote and ignoring the people who are citizens and can vote.”

Arnold said she started getting suspicious about what Crow really cares about when she was looking through the records on the Federal Election Commission’s website. She was looking at Crow’s expenditures and was shocked that he seemed to be spending money everywhere except where his constituents are.

“I don’t even know why he keeps getting elected. He doesn’t seem to care about the people here,” she said.

Arnold says she doesn’t understand why the media and local elected officials won’t call Crow out for denying and minimizing the crime, the very violent and dangerous Tren de Aragua gang activity that has been exposed in Aurora.  She is upset that Crow keeps denying the danger that TdA presents to the residents of the 6th District.

Fabbricatore said he wanted to remind people that the power of the government comes from them, and that Crow should not be in power if he can’t show up for the people that he is supposed to represent.
