Douglas Bruce was riding high after TABOR’s big win in 1992. But the afterglow didn’t last long. And when the economy fell off a cliff, the political establishment mounted a massive attack on TABOR.
Douglas Bruce was an ex-lawyer with a love for the U.S. Constitution when he moved to Colorado in 1986. He earned a reputation as a rabble rouser and was seen as little more than that. Then he won, and changed everything.
