U.S. Rep. Lauren Boebert wonât compromise with people who donât share her values or opinions, the freshman congresswoman said Friday at Club 20âs spring conference.
That in response to a question from San Miguel County Commissioner Kris Holstrom, who said that as a Western Slope Democrat sheâs learned to reach compromises with people on both sides of the political aisle in her county on a variety of issues, and asked Boebert if she was willing to do the same with voters in her own politically divided district.
âMy concern is, Iâm not feeling that thereâs very much room for compromise in what Iâm hearing from you,â Holstrom said. âYou have a varied district as well, and several voters in your district did not vote for you. Club 20 has tried very, very hard in the last few years to listen to the different voices on the Western Slope, so I would be really appreciative of a little more compromise on your behalf.â
