Colorado Dems Push Gas Pump Virtue Signaling

In yet another display of radical climate alarmism, Colorado Democrats are pushing a ridiculous new scheme to slap “global heating” warning labels on gas pumps across the state. Because apparently, filling up your car isn’t stressful enough—now you need a guilt trip courtesy of the nanny state.

According to reports, progressive lawmakers—egged on by environmental extremists—want to mandate labels at gas stations that will warn drivers about the supposed “climate impact” of fueling their vehicles because nothing says “freedom” like being scolded by your government while you’re just trying to get to work.

This is the same crowd that believes Colorado—a state responsible for a minuscule fraction of global emissions—can single-handedly alter the Earth’s temperature by shaming drivers into abandoning their cars. Never mind that China and India are building coal plants at a record pace while Colorado Democrats obsess over gas pump stickers.

This isn’t about “raising awareness”—it’s about conditioning people to accept ever-more draconian restrictions on their lives. First, it’s a label. Then, it’s a tax. Then, it’s an outright ban. The left’s endgame is clear: They want to control how you live, how you travel, and how much energy you’re “allowed” to use.

Meanwhile, Colorado families are already struggling under the weight of Bidenflation, skyrocketing energy costs, and a state government that seems hellbent on making life harder for ordinary people. Instead of addressing real issues—like crime, the housing crisis, or the failing education system—Democrats would rather virtue-signal with meaningless climate theatrics. Read below:
