CUT rating

The Colorado Union of Taxpayers (CUT) rates how often legislators vote with its positions on taxes, spending, TABOR and other issues, including property rights and parental rights.

CUT rating (2024): 9%
CUT rating (2025): 13%
CUT rating (2026): 14.2%
Average of listed CUT ratings (2024, 2025, 2026): 12.1%

The guide gives each listed year equal weight, omits years without a rating and rounds only the final average to one decimal. This is a guide calculation, not a CUT-published lifetime score.
