Is bret baier. There was a famous saying in the 1800s go west young man. Millions took that advice hoping to find opportunity in the vast openness to wethe west represend a place they would fill their lives in build their lives in a way they saw fit and live the American Dream. Which is why we came out to colorado for where many of the travel levers ended up. We are hereq th in denver while American Dream could be something each citizen must discover in the 21st century what the government does can have an effect on how easy or senate race between democratic incumbent mark udol and republican challenger millions of citizens are focused on an election that could strongly effect their future. The American Dream to me is have an opportunity to have the promise if you do the right things you succeed and can grow. As a child robin bray now 588 had the classic wish millions of American Kids had before him. It was my dream to be a cowboy. That is exactly what he became. Of course it helped that he was raised by his familys ranch. Today mr. Bray is the Owner Operator of bray ranches. 60,000 acres in red veil, colorado on the western slope of the state. Ranch life is hard work. But he gets plenty of help from wife melissa and their four kids. Darren, zandon lance and chase. They worry about whether he will be able to pass on the life he loves to his kids and to their kids. It is erg for that generation. That is why we are still doing what we are doing. One thing robert never dreamed of when he wanted to be a cowboy how much time he spent wrangling with Government Agencies on the phone. I spent all of my time in the office dealing with the bureau of o[x management. He says his biggest obstacle is environmental regulation. He used to raise sheep along with his cattle. Lost his sheep permit to government policies. I havent passed on the wilderness government issues. That is huge for us. That is one of the reasons we are out of the sheep business. T worries he is more attuned to concerns of the environmental lists than those of ranchers. Heia 6n sponsored significant violation to legislation and donors are environmental activist group. He comes to boulder colorado those are his constituents and he followslrg that line. Now the epa wants to add more rules to regulate ditches and streams making it even more costly to run a ranch. So the brays sent son zando nsh and his wife sara to washington, d. C. In the hope to get udol see his side. That is not the first time they have had to go. Our goal is to get the story out to the senators. They will have a chance to talk with them. The next morning they met with the agricultural team. How did the meetings go . It was helpful for us to kind of give them an insight they may not have had. They heard you. Historically hadthat has not been the case. It has been a little iffy for us with the issues we believe in i talked to the candidates about the concerns. Agriculture is big deal. Agriculture is part of the economy. Some of the farmers and ranchers you talked to like what you said but they are worried about harry reid and the Democratic Senate pushing that epa agenda from the administration. Senate reed is from the west he understands theno 4 importan. I am going to be making the case we need to work with the sector. His republican opponent wants to exploit his odds to environmental regulation. We have watched this. The environment has gotten more involved. Threats to regulate dirt roads and now threats of regulating every molecule of water they love to deal with or address. When he says i am going to tackle those issues, too, he supported him 99 percent of the time. He voted for him on every regulation. He is going to once again miss the mark. Back at the ranch they tried to deal with the effects of those regulations and worrying about their future. Well want to call everybody together and changing of the season, the fall is the beginning. We have hunter showing up this week. Robert is referring to the annual cattle sale a once a year shot at making ends meet. One bad day could mean disaster for the ranch. W. Ona year. This is a payday for us. We work yearround for this day. We have really good years and really poor w . S years. It is feast or maam famine. A nail biting moment for thek brays. When we return we go from the grassy terrain to another type of grass that is turning colorados economy greener. E. Up to 27 more brush movements.

Gov in 2012 the citizens of colorado passed amendment 64, which legalized the possession of marijuana for recreational use. 55 of the public saw it as a good idea. 45 saw it as a bad idea. And a handful of citizens saw it as a chance to make money. As soon as you get a taste of it, youre back on your path again. Including the hackett sisters, robin and sher ri. In january they opened up a shop near denver. So we rolled joints and we preweighed out cannabis and we said to each other, we dont know if were planning the Biggest Party ever or if nobodys going to show up. So on opening day we kept them warm and we had a coffee vendor. We probably served about 750 people. I dont know how to explain that chaos. It was just person after person after person after person. And we did a we did a show every 90 seconds. For the next i think it was 21 days we served 600 people a day. They called their dismenpens rebotanicare. Its a family run business. Her 25yearold daughter pifs in as needed. I maintain all of the marketing and all of the online menus, social media but i also do retail sales when it gets really busy during the end of the day. We roll joints, everybody has to do everything around here. But for all of their success they have problems. The state may have okayed it but under federal law businesses are subjected to special scrutiny. Most banks avoid doing business with them. They are forced to operate on a cash only basis. You ought to run a business without taking your employees is impossible paying rent. My money comes from marijuana. All of that cash can be dangerous. My staff is in danger. I am in danger. The people that walk in with cash. If you are shopping for a months you are going to spend 1500 in cash. The season year citizen invvi parking lot are walking in with a lot of cash. It is dangerous for them. The fdi classified marijuana as a schedule 1 drug. A dangerous substance sthat has no recognized medical use and has a hypotension for abuse. Bq will go to things and they are like the program we are offering. We are like we would like to participate. You cant because your marijuana this is a fedv9 really fu funded program. Evenoyx; paying taxes are n easy. Our sales volume we pay 80,000 a month in sales tax. We have to take the cash. It takes us four money hours to count our money. They picked up armored trucks to count the money. Colorado soon added insult in injury. Now we have to pay with cash. I have to pay my tax and pay a penalty for paying cash. The state may see marijuana sales as legitimate business the federal government sees it as an illegal enterprise. The entire industry could go to pot if the feds decide to over ride amendment 34. These sisters already knew the marijuana business no matter how legitimate can be problematic. Robin and sheer relived in pain for years. ]j prescribed. It is something i had not felt in 15 years. After they passed a law she went into the cannabis business a small step toward the retail boom in Recreational Marijuana that was coming soon. Though they had been legalized they were always looking for an angle to stop it. One day there was a knock6yn one door. They said we hear your a major your honunder ground grow. Local Law Enforcement came in to inspect the plants. They looked in the house and put it in a bag and came up stairs and said we dont know if you are breaking lat you. Itting changed five days ago. They were charged with a felony. They brought her into the prosecutors office. They took a plea bargain i got it the rest of my life. I am not a drug addict. There would be no more plea bargains. I said think about it robin. You are in an 8 by 10 room. You sleep on a steel bed. The sink is on the back of the toilet. Can you do this . Can you spend 10 years of your life over this cause and what you believe in . I was scared to death but i didnt break the law and i am not going to be bullied. She held fast and practically on the courtroom steps the other side caved in. Here we go. It led the sisters to the marijuana dispense rebusiness they are in today. If the threat of prison didnt stop them it may end up banking regulations squeezed representative gardner. Well tell you the headway theyve made when we come back to this story. But first, two ore sisters with a business but very different issues. I take prilosec otc each morning for my frequent heartburn. Because it gives me. Zero heartburn prilosec otc. The number 1 doctorrecommended frequent heartburn medicine for 9 straight years. One pill each morning. 24 hours. Zero heartburn. Here in colorado democratic senator mark udall is fighting for his political life. Which may explain why udall kept his distance from politically active president obama when he was in denver this past july. But it was a different story when first Lady Michelle obama. Rising democratic star senator Elizabeth Warren and former secretary of state Hillary Clinton came this far. Womens rights here at home and around the world are clearly at risk. Those connections may appeal to women. And udall has gone allin on a gender gap strategy. In fact, udall has been relying so heavily on womens issues like abortion and contraception that its earned him a nickname. Mr. Udall, your campaign has been so focused on womens issues that youve been dubbed mark uterus that was lynn bartles of the denver post bringing up the her paper has the largest circulation in colorado and shocked the state, indeed the nation, when it endorsed gardner on october 10th. The post backed udall last time. But hes since lost their confidence. The endorsement said udall is trying to frighten voters rather than inspire them. And his obnoxious oneissue campaign is an insult to those he seeks to convince. Some see it as a sign that the war on women strategy has exhausted itself. But cory gardner has a gender politics problem himself. It has to do with amendment 67, which would define unborn children as persons in the colorado criminal code. Congressman gardner has been accused of hypocrisy flipflopping on the colorado personhood amendment. A lot of people gone today. You did change your mind on the personhood amendment at the state level, but you kept your name on the federal act, is that true . The federal act is a statement i support life. Senator udall said himself when he changed his mind on gay he said that good faith change position should be considered a virtue not a vice. How do you respond to this is not a war on women the democrats paint it as being . If you look at the polling numbers this is depiction they built. A number of yours or groups tied to you talk about person hood and contraception and that is clearly a focus. Freedom is a big deal for millions of coloradans. If they limited those freedoms we would have some other conversations. Reproductive rights aren issue for me. Who has a right to be able to decide over what a women does. Annette and victoria are the kind of voters they are betting his senate seat on. The two are business women who co founded the denver base. We are roughly 10 million in sales and employ about 80 people in colorado, wyoming, minnesota areas. I think having the businesses, having your own dest iny and being able to create a dream is fantastic. Socalled womens issues are only a small part of what concerns them. For instance as Business Owners healthcare is very much onf2mgyr minds. One is the real life healthcare package. We are told one of the compelling things about joining our company. The sisters of hope obamacare will workout. They change things in ways they cant control. We have been managing it but even the experts we are talking with are saying are we in compliance are we doing the right things to set up and the dates kind of change. It has already cost 340,000 for Health Insurance plans increasing costs dramatically. They decided to vote on obamacare and said they would do it again. Of course there would be some reforms but hindsight 2020 if i could name a couple of them we want to make sure we keep it 7n affordable. Then they are seeing Immigration Reform. It has a big impact on the labor pool since 911 it significantly ruled back. I dont want to be voting for candidates whose position on immigration are to do nothing. How important is that in colorado . Congressman gardener wants to taken one step it will be a key part of this game. I believe we need Immigration Reform thate;b÷ actually works. That is more than personnel or equipment. We havepoy to address the entrd exit system address the issues. Got to have a steady hand today. They are concerned about Immigration Reform. We got here from spain he can be found in Colorado Springs almost 70 miles south of denver. There is the shops founder carlos his son tony and tonys son brian and charles. He is the tall one in the family. Others are entitled to an American Dream. It is not just a dream for america it is a dream for the world. Definition of the American Dream i think its the idea of making a better life for yourself and for your kid. The aguilars are trying to expand the business. It can be successful ott one store can you replicate it on another store. As you do that can you keep the reigns back and still oi÷ be abh swe control everything. What happens in government becomes bigger and bigger and harder to keep in check. I understand why they are regulating there is a safety and risk aspect. Senator recently came through town. I have one question for you and the taxpayers from the states perspective the fires that happened during that time stopped us from expanding because they shut down the whole area. How do we prevent that from 6 happening . I work really hard in the front end to keep fires from happening but we have to have the assets on s airplanes and t infantry. When they get on the ground it is awesome. Love talking with you. You guys are doing i lit. They are generally both democrats and it helps confirm who they will be supporting in the election . I am probably going to vote for udal again. Who the sistersrnj voted fo come november . 6s[sdrias answer as of this summer may surprise you. I dont even know who is running if you want to know ÷ truth. Whoa. Yes. I dont. I will ven actually but i dont right now. When we come back an issue that goes deep fracking. Later we will return to the bray ranch to see how the make or break cattle sale went. Ke ride. I didnt think id have a heart attack. But i did. Im mike, and im very much alive. Now my doctor recommends a bayer aspirin regimen to help prevent another heart attack. Be sure to talk to your doctor before you begin an aspirin regimen. Can you start tomorrow . Tomorrow were booked solid. We close on the house tomorrow. Tomorrow we go live. Its a day full of promise. And often, that day arrives by train. Big day today . Even bigger one tomorrow. Csx.

Under normal circumstances, there is only one pathy5w to t u. S. Rci[ senate. That is by7 winning an electio. We come to colorado to look at one of the elections. We have talked to all types, ÷[ ranchers, hairdressers, cannabis sellers and many others try to find what they are looking for in a politician. The two main senatorial gardener. They are neck and neck and with each citizen we talked to we discovered another issue that could make or break this race. 10 years ago. Pnrn the word sd like an insult, trackfracker. To some it sounds like the salvation of the american economy. To others like the destruction environment. Whatever it is fracking or hydraulic fabbing touring they got oil andj gas out of the ground is a contentious issue out of colorado. Jc barred done and his son john had been running stratcom. An Energy Consulting firm since 2008. There are about 7 of us mb i the office fulltime. We can range anywhere from 1540 contractors. Working in the small office and deal with big ideas. One of those ideas is fracking will knotted only make money but could also make America Energy independent. An important goal for jc. And a legacy for his children and grandchildren. I havecyp reached the point my life where i am sensitive to if i time and i feel pressured to accomplish a lot more in a short period of time. I feel a sense of responsibility to leave it in a better place that i found it. There is a larger group ready to wage war to deal with fracking. They are initiatives 88, 89 andj 121 on the colorado ballot. We could be shut down tomorrow by an election over an issue of how fardt ray way fro limit we should 6x ÷drill. The prospect of having oil and gas initiatives on the ballot in m4 colorado made democrats on issue. They remove the measures from the ballot they made a commission for recommendation for next year. The battle is not just instinct its aoyetek a senator might consider. You mentioned you are pro fracking. It means jobs and future. Over 100 are at work because of the industry. If high drawl can fracking was banned statewide it would cost colorado an estimate 68,000 jobs and a billionar3 dollars Economic Activity over five ej n years. Do you think that this issue, fracking is important . Safe, it has led ec. You want to protect the Public Health the communities where fracking takes place. You want to protect the job sxir creation. Bkq÷ we have a Blue Ribbon Commission taking place to find that sweet spot. But we also protect our job. Fracking is a key issue might not get much of a clue from answers like that. Theres another energy issue the whartons worry about keystone hype line. The project that will carry huge amounts of oil from canada to thexus gulf of mexico. Under this issue theypaf disa. Than once to stop it from goingc forward. A lot of people want to do the track route to the ypj pipelin. The wrart tons froegsnal life requires that to confront personal life does as well. You want a hat and a bow . Recent divorce from my wife being a single father is American Dream. He has a 2yearold daughte< autumn grace born geoff inaone year a ear and now losiaoy hearing i the other. Personal issues are difficult. I get to make it8hqn a part of American Dream. Complete life to hear music and other childrens laughter. Healthcare is really important employed. He has tohehdu take care ofu we not transformed him to the providing the benefits. At a personal level the rise of insurance premiums and things as a self employed individual in watching my children and i sky rocket has been pretty yjtough. They wonder if obamacare is at issue. Great britain and canada and other country is great. I dont really think what we have is the answer either. That is some plates we need a of worksz on it is hard to be critical when i cant proposein solution this is some place they have to go and they have to be the . Nknbest. They are onshnn opposite end the sfek trum. As we have seen corey gardener would repeal obamacare central udol would keep it and try to fix the flaws. The ,n whartons have a good id who will get their votes. I think it is time that maybe we do have some newjz9 t uim in the senate in the state ofm colorado that will be more representative of the people here. When we come back we revisit marijuana retailers the hackett sisters. What will happen in a state where politicians have to poor people the feds still consider ;ndealers. Love. Its what makes a subaru, a subaru. This business grew so fast this year that i havent made my i vvenlt made my decision because i havent made recall, robi they opened up a thriving marijuanatznox dispense rein ja. To operate as a cash only business. Which is why sherriurum hackett recently went toa ps corey evs c a0 i am a cannabis business wx owner. I have been in here to talk about what corey gardeners position is on marijuana especially the banking side of it. He may have missed him that day but we caught up with both and talked to them about marijuana. It is a laboratory state, could will col. Now you have this experiment on marijuana. Far. You have 12 million more and 40 million in Law Enforcement are you happy about the ÷magnu . When it comes8 to the isf m intended the laboratories of democracy. Industry forward . There are certainly problems that have been created banking issues and Financial Services issues have to be worked out. Wh x0z he is guarded in his ÷ see legalizing marijuana as an over all positive for the state. The voters showed the country he is we have libertarian streak here with policies that didnt make sense it increased crime rates and perhaps gave moek men tum. We as a state decided to do an experiment which is what the founders wanted the states to do. I think so far it is working. We called on congress to remove the status. Most important we need to provide access to the banking system. Right now it is a cash only business. While that may sound like it has up sites it becomes a Public Safety root. That sounds more like what the hacketts want. Votes not when we last checked they were both leaning toward the straight laced conservative republican corey gardener. I am a conservative person i would say. I tend to vote republican because they tend to have theum conservative that i do have. My sister the liberal and the democrats set marijuana free and industry. Health can change in a minute. So cvs health is changing healthcare. Making it more accessible and affordable, with over 900 locations for walkin medical care. And more on the way. Minuteclinic. Another innovation from cvs health. Because health is everything. Family, it is makeq3kiju break time. This is a payday for us. They arez y getting ready f annual scattle. Everything has to work. The last few weeks have been busy. We have ridden for 10 days straight 10 hours a day. The to make matters worse they are down a man. Roberts oldest son brandon is about 350 miles of wagonon hg from government officials about changing regulations. It is hard enough to keep a businedc9 running. The thenk;z9n when you have they hand of government y every y threatening you with another regulation thats really hard. If the sale doesnt go well the future ofsmhkn the bray ran could be in h nquestion. Keeping it in the family in the future is important. Ive apfjn daughter i would lov see her be a part of this ranch for her life. Her life is probably 10 times more complicated and n 10 times more expensive now. When i first start if i could netes . 250 to 300 a calf i mige able to stay in business one more year. No you we are going to sell provide 03rethat. Later that morning the cattle are driven to a scale to be weighed. Then a tense moment. Robert and the buyer look at the numbers. Comes out to 377. In the end thei. E tape was year. Pit in my stomach. I dont haveqono that feeling . It was a good tnday. The sale went well. They got to deal with a . ,f big picture a growing effect their future profits. Something thd. S threatens to break up many a3loit sr y busin. ;n huge issue. My grandparents died one in 2005 the other in 2006. My dad and our ranch has been kpy issue for almost ten years now. We have had to Sell Properties and do things that diminish myv sykids future. We are almostmp n 60 years old going to pay this stupidzc k inheritance tax for tree times in the first place. My grand dad and mom and dad spent their entired2n lives to build what we have today for the at close to half of whatr our ranch is wo that is acu÷devastating. It is another reason the bray family is focusing ong[k n who represent them in the u. S. Senate. Senator udol voted forsi the greatest increase. He voted to lift tax rates on billionaires and millionaires increasing tax rates on middle class and working people. They have been behind several bills in the house agriculturally support i have. We saw senator udals office step back from those things. It was disappointing after speaking with them for a while in dc. Jjn feel it fits our culture better our lifestyle better. We feel more strongly about this one than a lot of them. It is such a close race i wouldnt be surprised if we look at numbers and it would justkn come out to are you going to go out and vote. Which brings us to one final twist in our story. With how they vote with later registration above all near universal voting by man. Voting not who they voted for. It can ballots up to voting day. This will make voting available to ever rrw whiem opponents fer it would make voter fraud more likely. How it will play out on election how it will play out on election dayizm we know the citizens of colorado were ran from ranchers to oil men to not only which candidate they support and what they sees the best direction for their country for their state and for themselves.
