Stop Mesa County’s $120,000 Political PR Contract – Demand Transparency & Accountability!

Recent signers:
Felicia Gracie and 19 others have signed recently.

The Issue

Mesa County residents deserve responsible, transparent, and ethical use of taxpayer dollars. Instead, our county commissioners have quietly approved a $120,000 contract with EIS Solutions, a politically connected PR firm with ties to dark money donors and partisan operations.

This contract was approved without public input or transparency, and there is no clear benefit to the people of Mesa County. Instead of funding roads, infrastructure, economic development, or public safety, our tax dollars are being used to pay a political consulting firm to influence policy.

Key Concerns:
💰 Misuse of Public Funds – Why is our money going to a PR firm instead of funding real community needs?

🤝 Political Favoritism – EIS Solutions has strong political ties, raising concerns that this was a backroom deal rather than a contract awarded on merit.

📢 Lack of Transparency – The contract was approved without public discussion or competitive bidding transparency.

🚧 PR Over Policy – We need investments in our roads, businesses, and community services, not in a firm known for political spin.

We Demand the Following Actions:
1️⃣ Full transparency – The county must release all documents related to this contract, including selection criteria, emails, and meeting minutes.
2️⃣ Justification for spending – Commissioners must explain how this contract directly benefits Mesa County residents.
3️⃣ Rescind the contract – This deal should be canceled, and the funds should be reallocated to essential services.
4️⃣ End political favoritism – Future contracts must go through a transparent, competitive bidding process to ensure the best use of public funds.

Sign this petition to demand that Mesa County leaders stop wasting our tax dollars on political PR firms and start prioritizing the real needs of our community!

📢 Your voice matters! Sign and share to hold our county officials accountable.
