Question about Graduated Income Tax. Avila supports it. Nelson does not.

Sean Beedle @beedle.bsky.social · 22/09/2026
Talking about public safety. I think Puma (Avila’s guide dog) has the right idea. I first met him while working for the Indy, and since then he has turned into an old man.

Sean Beedle @beedle.bsky.social · 22/09/2026
Question about Buc-ee’s. Of Course. 🦫 Nelson is probably sick of talking about it.

Sean Beedle @beedle.bsky.social · 22/09/2026
Avila says “access and transparency” are issues with Republican control in El Paso County. Mentions Jeff Crank, in an earlier question mentioned Trump. She is trying to tie things to federal politics, and Nelson trying to keep it local.

Sean Beedle @beedle.bsky.social · 22/09/2026
First question about issues in the district, both talk about affordability.

As a chamber event, this is really a debate for all our military contractors. Lots of questions about Space Force, golden dome, and defense acquisition contracts. Killin tries to shift the focus to affordability and health care, child care.
070
Sean Beedle @beedle.bsky.social · 18/09/2026
Next question is about preventing government shutdown. Killin says she supports legislation to prevent a shutdown. Crank blames Democrats for the shutdown. “That is beyond shameful.”

Sean Beedle @beedle.bsky.social · 18/09/2026
Crank uses one of his two rebuttals. Says he didn’t want to hold the process hostage. “I’m tired of the selfish members of congress who make it all about them.” Killin says he “added $5 trillion to the national debt” and mentions increased costs due to tariffs
140
Sean Beedle @beedle.bsky.social · 18/09/2026
First question is about economic priority for El Paso County. Crank points to his record, and Space Command. Killin critiquing Crank for not using leverage to keep Space Command, but mentions need for housing and health care, impact of tariffs.

Sean Beedle @beedle.bsky.social · 18/09/2026
Opening statements, Crank mentions he used to work for the Chamber, touts his work on the economy. “When I took office the economy was in rough shape.” Ah, yes, because things are great now, right?
