Beetleboob: Over-Regulation Cost Me My Restaurant

“Colorado’s west slope used to have a booming energy production economy. Unfortunately, we’ve been regulated into poverty in Colorado’s third district. I remember when I owned a small business, roughnecks used to come into my restaurant and I knew it was going to be a good, successful, profitable day because I had mud on my floor to clean up. But through regulations, there was no more mud to clean up on nearly any of our business floors and many businesses shuttered forever.” – Rep. Lauren Boebert, in a floor speech today that contradicts her own claim last year that her landlord had decided not to renew her lease in a “purely business decision with no political motivation.”
