Welcome!
Welcome to State Senate District 26!
I am the proud Colorado State Senator representing much of south metro Denver; Bow Mar, West Centennial, Cherry Hills Village, Columbine Valley, Englewood, Greenwood Village, Littleton, Sheridan, and parts of Aurora. Click here to see what's going on in the cities of SD 26!
As a community, you won’t find more Colorado variety, from small-town community groups; unique shops on main streets; quaint theatre venues to metropolitan business and high-cuisine delights to horses, wildlife, and the Platte River.
Demographically, we have all economic backgrounds, a myriad of ages, ethnicities, religions, and a vast variety of professions. Racially, we’re close to 69% Caucasian, 15% Hispanic, 9% African-American, and the rest non-white. Culturally, we’re seeing a growing trend of returning to our country’s roots of a “melting pot” of heritages with close to 50 languages spoken. We are proud to have some of the lowest crime rates in the state in our district.
Politically, we have one of the most “purple” districts in Colorado, meaning a true blend of Democrats, Republicans, Unaffliateds, Libertarians, Green Party, etc. And that is why I work so hard at the Capitol to bring the people of the parties together to gain consensus in win-win lawmaking. This way, I can stay true to representing my district and maintain long-term relationships across the aisle, which most often, delivers the best policy.
As Colorado “suburbanites,” we treasure education with our award-winning public and private education schools, including the #1 community college in the Colorado; Arapahoe Community College. We’re also home to the birth of Colorado light rail with four light rail stations going directly to downtown businesses, campuses, and theatre and art facilities.
If you ever want a tour of our district or a tour at the Capitol, please email us at Linda.Newell.Senate@gmail.com. Would love to host you!
To find out what’s going on at the Capitol or in the district, please join us at any of our monthly nonpartisan town halls:
Second Saturdays of the month at Bemis Library in Littleton, 9:00am
Third Wednesdays of the month at Heather Gardens clubhouse in Aurora, 6:30pm
Please note a couple of changes in October town halls:
During session, you’ll hear regular legislative updates of what’s going on at the Capitol. And during the interim, there are presenters on the latest issues or topics people have requested. These are also your opportunities to ask questions or give me input.

Thank you for your continued support. We’re still in this together. And together, we can make Colorado an even better place to live!
