Help military families this holiday season

The Military Family Relief Fund was established last year through bipartisan legislation carried by State Representative Morgan Carroll, D-Aurora, and State Senator Ed Jones, R-Colorado Springs. The fund helps families who are experiencing financial hardship as a result of active military deployment.

"The difficulties due to deployment can be devastating. This is one of the most concrete actions we can take to put our money where our mouth is and support our troops and their families,” said Rep. Carroll.
