District 35 supports Joyce Foster

"Joyce has proven as a City Council person to have two very important characteristics: she is both a smart and effective leader. I have full faith in her ability to continue this kind of leadership in the Colorado Senate."

Bruce Hoyt

"Joyce Foster clearly cares about people. In a time in which our state faces critical financial issues and horrendous stress we need more people oriented leaders like Joyce in the state Legislature."

Ray Springfield

"Joyce has an unusual competence and expertise in some of our most critical issues of transportation infrastructure, urban development, environmental quality and social justice. Her successes in bringing people together and getting workable and fiscally prudent solutions has been proven on Denver’s City Council and on the Denver Regional Council of Governments (DRCOG). We need her in the state Senate."

Bert Melcher

"When we were worried about the broken down University Hills shopping center, Joyce listened to the community and worked tirelessly to the redevelop the shopping center in a way the entire community appreciated.

Dinah Layton and Peggy Lane

U Hills

"I am a co-chair of House District 9B (HD9B). I got to know Joyce Foster on our trip to South Africa. I respect her for her integrity, resourcefulness, and compassion for people. She is a very loving, warm, and fun person."

"My husband and I have lived in University Hills for 48 years. During this time, we have seen many changes in this area. Through Joyce’s efforts and those of the University Hills Neighborhood Association, this area has been rejuvenated and has become a prime destination for families to come and live. I believe that Joyce Foster is the best candidate to succeed Ken Gordon in the Colorado Senate."

Charlene St. John

U Hills

Herb and Ro Padezensky

Tamarac Hills

"Joyce Foster is someone you can trust. She truly cares about the needs of her constituents and has long worked to serve a diverse range of interests. This is why she is our choice for state Senate District 35."

James and Rachel Simpson

Mik Velez

East Gate

"Joyce served in the early days of Regional Emergency and Trauma Advisory Council (RETAC) development where she was a major voice in advocating for a strong and well coordinated emergency medical and trauma system for this heavily populated area. I know she will bring the same kind of courage and insight to the state Capitol."

Stephanie Thomas

(Denver Health Medical Center)
Southern Hills

Mark Hogan

(former Lt. Governor)
Wellshire East

"As a former member and President of Denver City Council, Joyce Foster showed that she had the depth of knowledge about the issues that saved the city of Denver. We are convinced that as the state Legislator for District 35 she will bring those same qualities to the state Capitol. We urge you to join us in supporting her candidacy."

Drs Samuel and Barbara Batey

Forest Park

"We support Joyce because of her can-do spirit, record of accomplishments on City Council and her ability to negotiate. She is an initiator and that is why we want Joyce to represent us."

Tom and Ralphie Lutrey

Windsor Gardens

"Joyce has been my neighbor and through the years has shown herself to be a caring, enthusiastic and positive person that takes all points of view into consideration."

Susan Fox

Lowry

"When you are responsible for public involvement for a major project like I was on T-REX, the last thing you want to hear is that a "politician" wants to be heavily involved — unless that person is Joyce Foster. Joyce not only brings the political smarts necessary to make projects happen, she also brings the empathy and ability to listen to all sides of an issue to ensure her constituents’ needs are truly met."

Amy Ford

Lowry

"Joyce represented us well in the City Council and she’ll do the same as our state Senator. We’re lucky to have a candidate of her quality to succeed Ken Gordon."

Steven Katich

Lowry

"I’m voting for Joyce Foster because: 1) Ken Gordon, our current District 35 Senator and Colorado Senate Majority Leader, strongly endorses her as the best candidate to replace him in his term-limited position, 2) she served us well for 10 years on Denver City Council both as our representative and as President, and 3) she will continue to listen with an open mind to her constituents’ differing concerns and will work towards a reasonable, considered way to represent them. Joyce says, "I bring a willingness to listen to all sides and relentless determination to bring all sides to common sense answers and action." From my experience, I know this is an honest statement."

Jan Frame

Lowry

"Joyce is results-oriented and a consensus-builder. When she served as our city council member, we contacted her about adding our neighborhood park to the Summer in the Parks program, and she quickly cut through the red tape to make it happen. Joyce cares about her constituents and knows how to get things done."

Jamie and Mark Idelberg

Willow Point

"Joyce’s leadership made the light rail Dayton Station a reality, which has made life, work, and play that much easier for all of us down south. She’s committed to expanding light rail and other alternative forms of transportation."

Bill McMullen

Cherry Creek Townhomes

"Joyce proved she is willing and anxious to listen to her constituents. We need that kind of listener at the state Capitol."

Jim and Sandy Corlett

Dr. Marti Friednash

Guy and Julie Holliday

Bible Park

"Joyce never forgot the needs of south Denver residents and was our voice at the Denver City and County Building. We’re supporting her because we know she will serve Senate District 35 very well."

John and Carolyn Stoffel

Val Lunka
