Interview with Savannah Wolfson

As a mother of two, Savannah Wolfson’s love for her family clearly motivates her desire to serve constituents of Colorado’s 26th House District (formerly HD57). She is running against Republican opponent Glenn Lowe in this month’s primary election on June 28.

Wolfson and her family moved to Colorado in 2016 following what she describes as “a difficult time” in the city of Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

“There was a lot of crime, we were actually robbed after we tucked in our kids at night, and had an invasion, and we actually saw the robbers, and had no way to defend ourselves,” explained Wolfson.
