I am currently a Colorado State Rep. for House District 49. I have served for the past 4 years. Prior to being elected I ran a successful small business for 25 years, manufacturing sport water bottles under the brand Polar Bottle.
  • We must continue to take action on Climate, energy and environment. I passed a bill in 2023 to study issues faced by oil and gas workers as Colorado transitions to clean energy. I want to pursue legislation based on that study in 2025. I also want to continue working to create greater resiliency for inevitable climate-driven challenges like fire disasters and drought. I have passed several insurance reform bills, and a bill to provide insurance options in communities where carriers have exited.
  • Housing availability and affordability is a significant challenge for people in Colorado. This session I passed a bill allowing more ADUs, and I supported the bill to increase density on transit corridors. I also supported protections for renters. If elected I will continue to work on policies to create more affordable housing.
  • We must provide adequate treatment for people with serious mental illness. Too many people are suffering in our streets in homelessness, psychosis, and addiction. We have to create adequate infrastructure to stop this cycle before it starts. I passed a bill to consider involuntary care in the most extreme cases, similar to California’s CARE courts. That study was recently completed. I plan to build on this progress through legislation in the Senate.
Addressing the needs of people with serious mental illness is a passion for me. My family and thousands of Colorado families have been profoundly impacted by the lack of effective care for our loved ones.
Elected leaders have to act with integrity and empathy. We have to recognize the humanity in everyone even those we disagree with.
This work is about more than passing bills. It is about being a leader in the community, connecting constituents to state services, and working with other officials at all levels of government to solve problems for people.
I was a Courtesy Clerk at City Market for my last two years of High School. During my time there we joined a union. I also taught skiing and was a babysitter.
Having a good working relationship with the Governor's team is important. Listening to their concerns and making adjustments to policies when possible helps get bills signed into law.
Creating an economy that works for everyone. We have made significant progress this past session with the earned income tax credit increase, the family tax credit, the tuition tax credit as well as other progressive policies. There is more work to be done.
Yes. I thing that experience is valuable especially in the State Senate where you are asked to weigh in more policies and where each member's vote has more impact.
Yes. It is critical to build relationships with fellow legislators on both sides of the aisle. It is also important to have good relationships with other stakeholders in the Capitol and in the community.
I met Janet Van der Laak when I first started running. We both had adult sons with serious mental illness. We were testifying in front of the Governor's first task force on Behavioral Health. We had similar experiences with regard to getting care for our kids. Her son Matt was homeless. Every morning she made him a lunch. She drove around looking for him and if shouldn't find him she would give the lunch to someone else on the street.She was a fierce advocate and made an impact every time she spoke. During COVID, she told me that her other son had taken his own life. She was struggling with profound grief. Months later I found out that she had taken her own life. I wondered who would advocate for Matt without her. Recently I learned that Matt died in March at the age of 31. Our system failed this family and I am determined to continue to work on this issue.
I will be introducing a bill regarding getting to net zero emissions in 2040. I will also be introducing a bill regarding changes to the mental health care system for people who are incapable of managing their illness. I will also be looking at a renter protection bill for those living with housing vouchers and other assistance.
Congressman Joe Neguse, Governor Jared Polis, Senate President Steve Fenberg, Speaker of the House Julie McCluskey and many other elected leaders in Senate District 18 and around the State. Colorado Education Association, Boulder Valley Education Association, AFL/CIO, Colorado Chamber of Commerce, Services Workers International, Stand for Children and many other organizations.
I have been a member of the following committees in the House: Business and Labor, Chair; Judiciary; Appropriations; Public and Behavioral Health, State Affairs and Legislative Council. I have also been on several interim committees including: Treatment of Persons with Behavioral Health Disorders in the Criminal and Juvenile Justice System, Chair; Jail Standards Legislative Oversight Committee, Chair; Transformational Task Force on Behavioral Health; Committee on Defining Recidivism. In the Senate I hope to be a member of the Business and Labor Committee, Health, Judiciary and the interim committees listed above.

Representative Judy Amabile was elected to the 2021 Colorado Assembly representing House District 13. She currently is running for re-election in the newly created House District 49. Rep. Amabile is a mother, business person, community activist, environmentalist, and legislator. She earned a BA and an MBA at the University of Colorado in Boulder. She is co-founded and for 25 years operated Polar Bottle, a Boulder company that manufactures smartly designed sport water bottles. In the Colorado Assembly, Rep. Amabile has sponsored successful measures concerning access to mental health care, fire insurance reform, gun safety, and criminal justice reform, among others.
  • I am working to improve access to behavioral health care in Colorado, especially for people with serious mental illnesses and addiction disorders.
  • The impacts of climate change are driving devastating wildfires and an unprecedented water crisis in our state. These problems do not distinguish between rural/urban or political divides. We must address them together, with urgency and pragmatism.
  • Prohibitively expensive housing, income inequality, and price gouging by bad actors are just some of the complex factors driving economic hardship. We must stay focused on the core tenets of good economic policy: strengthening our middle class, supporting workers, increasing housing, and investing in education.
I am passionate about mental health access. I’m one of a legion of parents who know the despair of trying to access mental health services in a system that seems designed for failure. As we are learning, the costs and consequences of a broken mental health care system are devastating to people, families, and society at large. I lead efforts in the 2022 Colorado Assembly to allocate hundreds of millions of dollars toward improvements. We also need to disentangle mental illness from jails. Criminal justice reforms are key to unknotting the terrible problems of untreated serious mental illness.
My first job was bagging groceries at City Market in Aspen. I worked hard and all the checkers loved me for it. We joined a union while I was working there and it was exciting to be in the fight. Management was not happy, but I got a big raise.
The impacts of climate change are driving devastating wildfires and an unprecedented water crisis in our state. These problems do not distinguish between rural/urban or political divides. We must address them together, with urgency and pragmatism.
I currently serve on the committees Business Affairs & Labor; Public & Behavioral Health & Human Services;
State, Civic, Military, and Veterans Affairs; Treatment of Persons with Mental Health Disorders in the Criminal Justice System; and I am the Chair of the Jail Standards Commission Legislative Oversight Committee. In 2022, I served on Colorado's Behavioral Health Transformational Task Force.


Compromise is necessary and desirable. The vast majority of legislation I sponsored earned bipartisan support in the Colorado Assembly, proving that it’s possible to be simultaneously strongly progressive and pragmatic.

For example, when I proposed major changes to the insurance claims process for people who lose their homes in a wildfire, I was told it would be impossible to gain the support of the insurance industry, without which the bill could not succeed.

But by bringing all stakeholders to the table early and often, considering all good ideas, and negotiating with both intensity and good faith, we passed HB22-1111 with the support of the insurance industry. The bill provides major improvements for policyholders who lose everything in a wildfire, while ensuring insurance remains affordable and available in our state.

One stakeholder in the process said about my work:

“Your tenacity, commitment, hard work and speed at solving the problem is beyond impressive. When I raised the issues I was seeing on East Troublesome claims at the town hall meeting last summer, I would have never in a million years imagined that legislative change would be legislated in less than a year.”

In every effort, my goal is to lead with empathy and intelligence, while insisting on progress.

Judy Amabile is a mother, businessperson, lifelong Democrat, and proven leader who will build bridges to the future we want for Colorado. Judy has strong progressive values, and an impressive track record in both business and community activism. She co-founded Polar Bottle, where she demonstrated her commitment to workplace fairness. She established the non-profit organization Good Business Colorado to further these ideals in our community. Judy is committed to addressing climate change with bold solutions, creating greater economic equity for all Coloradans, and improving access to health care, specifically mental health care, in our state. Judy has been a proud Coloradan for almost 50 years, and is passionately devoted to this amazing place and its people. Throughout her life and business career, she has helped bring real solutions to bear on significant challenges facing our communities. Sas is known for creative problem solving, open-mindedness, and pragmatism. Judy is strong on the issues she believes in, and skilled at bringing people together to build consensus. In essence, Judy gets things done.
  • I will take bold action to address climate change. I have a plan to help Colorado transition successfully to a clean energy economy.
  • I stand for workers and will fight to bring economic opportunity to ALL Coloradans. As a business owner who advocated passionately for my employees while turning a profit, I bring a high degree of credibility to the discussion.
  • The lack of access to mental health treatment parallels staggering increases in homelessness, opioid drug addiction, incarceration, and suicide. I will work to bring better mental health care to our state.
I have an adult son with serious mental illness. Like legions of parents in Colorado, I have experienced firsthand the anguish caused by inadequate access to quality mental health care. I am on the Board of Mental Health Colorado and a member of the Boulder County NAMI advocacy committee. In 2019, I provided testimony to a Colorado Senate committee considering House Bill 1117, also known as the "red flag" or "extreme risk protection order" bill. I was gratified to see that bill become law in Colorado, giving families like mine a tool to help keep our loved ones safe from preventable gun violence.

Scorecards

Ascorecard evaluates a legislator’s voting record. Its purpose is to inform voters about the legislator’s political positions. Because scorecards have varying purposes and methodologies, each report should be considered on its own merits. For example, an advocacy group’s scorecard may assess a legislator’s voting record on one issue while a state newspaper’s scorecard may evaluate the voting record in its entirety.

Ballotpedia is in the process of developing an encyclopedic list of published scorecards. Some states have a limited number of available scorecards or scorecards produced only by select groups. It is Ballotpedia’s goal to incorporate all available scorecards regardless of ideology or number.
