Colorado's Ask First Initiative

"Ask First" is an innitiative that is currently being debated in the Colorado congress. It proposes that government companies should get employee permission before automatically withdrawing money from their paychecks to submit to unions, among other things. It gives the decision to be a part of a union to the employee, which it should be, especially since unions tend to lobby heavily for the democrat party. That's taxpayer money that goes directly to one party, which, somehow, just doesn't seem right.

A great member of the Colorado Alliance of Illustrators for many years now, in addition to producing beautiful children's books and paintings with also extremely multi-talented wife Cherish. I look forward to seeing more politixcartoons at the .com and in papers and magazines!"

"Benjamin Hummel possesses the single most important characteristic required of an editorial cartoonist: a passion for the issues. His point of view is never in doubt. When you add a sense of humor, a feel for irony and fine-tuned art skills, you have here a cartoonist worth your attention."

--Mike Keefe, Denver Post Cartoonist

"Finally, an editorial cartoonist who leans right, lives his faith, sees the funny side of politics, and can draw. Conservatives are going to like Ben's pen."

-- John Andrews
Former President, Colorado SenateHost, Backbone Radio
