Voters in Douglas County are deciding whether to become a home rule county. With ballots due June 24, the issue is stirring up a lot of strong feelings, amidst competing claims about what it would mean for this fast-growing part of Colorado. County commissioners say home rule status would give Douglas County more legal standing to fight back against Democratic policies coming out of the State Capitol. But the experience of Colorado's only two existing home rule counties shows that home rule is more complicated, and less far reaching than they may hope.On this episode of Purplish, CPR's Stephanie Wolf joins CPR's Bente Birkeland to break down home rule: from how the idea got its start in an armed conflict on the steps of Denver's city hall, to the role it's playing today in the fight over housing policy.You can read the full story here.Purplish is produced by CPR News and the Capitol News Alliance, a collaboration between KUNC News, Colorado Public Radio, Rocky Mountain PBS, and The Colorado Sun, and shared with Rocky Mountain Community Radio and other news organizations across the state. Funding for the Alliance is provided in part by the Corporation for Public Broadcasting.This episode was edited by Megan Verlee and sound designed and engineered by Shane Rumsey.

Mandy talks about why you should vote no on Home Rule for Douglas County with former County commissioner Steve Boand, she spoke with Mark Perez about competing in the international dragon boat championships, Jefferson county schools being investigated by the Department of Ed, the drama around a proposed Buc-ees in Palmer Lake, why non-Thai people can't have Thai hot, what childless, non working people on Medicaid do with their time, and why teaching kids to hate America has made them hate America.
MORE ON WHY YOU SHOULD VOTE NO ON DOUGCO ON HOME RULE I've said it before, I am NOT opposed to the concept of moving Douglas County to a Home Rule style of governance, but I am very much opposed to the way this is being handled in Douglas County and will be voting no. If you need more reasons to vote no, listen up at 1 when longtime GOPer and former County Commissioner Steve Boand joins me with a list of reasons.

To see disenfranchisement in action, look no further than Washington DC, whose 700,000 residents pay the highest taxes per household in our nation and yet have no voting members in the U.S. Congress. This inequity has persisted through both democratic and republican administrations and is intensifying in the 119th Congress and the Trump presidency. For almost 3 decades, DC Vote, a local nonprofit with national reach has led the movement for DC Statehood. It achieved the passage of Home Rule, but our elected leaders still do not control their budgets, and their legislation can be overturned by members of Congress who do not respect the right of a majority Black and Brown citizenry to govern itself. In this episode of Power Station I speak to DC Vote's Organizing Director Kelsye Adams whose political savvy and organizing know-how is generating powerful pro-statehood coalitions across the nation. Kelyse, an organizing superstar, co-founded Free DC, which invites everyone, not just the organizationally affiliated, to advocate for democracy. Along the way she found time to launch Long Live GoGo, which celebrates the official music of DC and catalyzes civic action at the intersection of art, politics and culture. Listen and share!
Send us a textMayor David McDavid brings decades of public service expertise to this revealing conversation about Zachary's governmental evolution. After examining the city's 15-year-old Home Rule Charter, McDavid recognized the need for updates that would clarify operations and improve efficiency as Zachary continues its growth trajectory.The proposed charter changes address several critical areas of governance. Council member residency requirements would be strengthened, ensuring representatives actually live in the districts they serve. Leadership protocols would shift, with the mayor pro tem running council meetings while clearly defining who takes charge during a mayoral absence. Department head residency requirements would be eliminated, expanding the talent pool Zachary can draw from for key positions."We're not asking people for millage or anything like that," McDavid explains. "We're just trying to clarify some things to make sure that the city operations are clear and more efficient." His pragmatic approach balances progress with fiscal responsibility, emphasizing that changes to compensation structures wouldn't take effect until future terms.Beyond charter reforms, McDavid shares exciting developments for Zachary's infrastructure and growth. From annexation plans that could extend city boundaries to the Mississippi River to new public safety radio towers improving emergency communications, his administration is laying groundwork for Zachary's future. Economic development initiatives are attracting new businesses while maintaining the city's clean, attractive appearance that continues drawing positive attention.As Zachary embraces its "Thriving '25" theme, McDavid's vision combines practical governance with ambitious growth plans. Don't miss this opportunity to understand how your vote on May 3rd could reshape how Zachary operates for years to come. The future of our city government is in your hands – be sure to make your voice heard at the polls.Support the show

Over the weekend, the City of St. George voted for its leaders. Interim Mayor Dustin Yates was officially elected, as were city council members who took office unopposed or won their elections. Still, the election wasn't quite the outcome city officials hoped for, when voters rejected the proposed home rule charter. Patrick Sloan-Turner, political reporter for The Advocate tells us about the irony behind this vote and what happens next.The Trump administration's crackdown on immigration has led to a string of arrests at colleges and universities. Across the country, immigration officials are targeting foreign students and professors, detaining them and often revoking their visas despite their legal statuses. While many had been involved in pro-Palestinian activism, some say their involvement was limited to online posts – or they had no traceable involvement at all. New Orleans immigration attorney Marco Balducci tells us more about what this says about First Amendment rights – or lack thereof – for non-citizens. —Today's episode of Louisiana Considered was hosted by Adam Vos.

Ireland may have been England's first colony but, by the 17th century, Irishmen were carving out their own imperial legacies in India. Gerald Aungier, an ambitious East India Company official, saw Bombay as a new frontier for plantation and trade. Drawing from his family's plantation experience in Ireland, he laid the foundations for the establishment of the legal and economic framework that would define colonial rule in India for centuries. A hundred years later, John Nicholson, an Ulster-born soldier, became a symbol of British military might - and brutality. Known for his extreme violence during the 1857 uprising, Nicholson led savage campaigns against Indian rebels, earning both devotion from his men and horror from his enemies. His actions, once celebrated in Britain, are now remembered as some of the worst atrocities of colonial rule. At the height of the Raj, another Irishman, Lord Dufferin, presided over India as Viceroy. Deeply aware of Ireland's own history under British rule, he feared that Indian nationalism would follow the same path as Ireland's Home Rule movement. So, how did these Irishmen shape the empire that once subjugated their own people? Listen as William and Anita are once again joined by Professor Jane Ohlmeyer, author of Making Empire: Ireland, Imperialism and the Early Modern World, to uncover the contradictions of Irish imperial history. _____________ Empire UK Live Tour: The Booze & Brews live show is going on a UK tour!

D.C.'s autonomy could be in jeopardy now that Republicans control the executive and legislative branches of the federal government.
While many District residents are concerned a Republican-led Congress could rescind the city's autonomy, not everyone sees doom and gloom. The chair of the Republican Party of D.C. Patrick Mara got behind the mic to explain why a Trump presidency will be good for the District of Columbia.Mara said public safety and concerns over crime could lead the federal government to assert more control of the city. He said he's heard from both Republicans and Democrats who blame the D.C. Council for not taking enough action."The council has to do a much better job on public safety....the Council is not seen in a good light on either side of the Hill," Mara said, who made clear he's a "staunch advocate" of D.C. Home Rule.He also weighed in on why more District residents voted Republican than in 2020 and 2016.Someone vandalized a kosher restaurant in D.C. this week in what may have been a hate crime. We asked Ward 3 Councilmember Matt Frumin to weigh in.

For 112 years, Ohio has had Home Rule protections in its Constitution that give communities the right to determine their own policies on important issues involving governing. But during the past couple of decades, cities and towns throughout Ohio have seen some of their power erode as the state has increasingly taken control over key policies. In this episode, Ohio historian Tom Suddes talks about the tradition of local control in Ohio. Ohio Public Media Statehouse News Bureau Chief Karen Kasler and podcast host, Jo Ingles, explore what is happening to local control now and changes that might lie ahead. And Rep. Sara Carruthers (R-Hamilton) talks about a piece of legislation she's sponsoring that would give some local control back to communities when it comes to cracking down on puppy mills.
