Colorado Democratic Gubernatorial Primary Debate

Published | Video Starts at 18:24

And you haven't joined that lawsuit brought by a former state worker. Briefly, this is one, just for 30 seconds here. What made the deputy in a Republican county worth suing but not the Democratic governor? I have the responsibility as the attorney general to enforce an important public policy. Colorado law enforcement does law enforcement and only law enforcement. I want immigrant communities to know that when you call 911, you're not jeopardizing your family's potential safety. I also know that we don't have enough law enforcement. (18:24–18:35)
