NEWS BRIEF

The Denver Post reports that a University of Maryland poll of 500 voters in Colorado’s 8th Congressional District found broad support among Democratic- and Republican-leaning respondents for government action on air pollution and emissions. The survey was conducted in May and June.

The poll found support across party leanings for making air-pollution reduction a government priority, setting an emissions-reduction goal, international cooperation, clean-energy tax credits and stronger vehicle fuel-efficiency requirements. The results describe voter views in the district and do not establish future policy outcomes.

What to know

The survey found majorities among both Democratic- and Republican-leaning voters in Colorado’s 8th District supported several environmental measures, though support levels were generally higher among Democratic-leaning respondents.
