  • EDUCATION REFORM SUCCESS

    Mutch GR identified legislative supporters as sponsors in order to expand high school graduation guidelines. Proactive legislation was introduced and later received unanimous approval by the Colorado legislature and signature by the Governor.

    ACCOMPLISHING UNANIMOUS APPROVAL

    The overwhelming legislative support was accomplished as Mutch GR partnered with a dedicated education leader, providing a hands-on presence at the Capitol. Together, we implemented an enormous stakeholder outreach to the educational community and its various advocacy organizations, followed by meetings and feedback with Colorado Department of Education and members of the Board of Education.

    The stakeholder outreach successfully addressed opposing concerns allowing for broad legislative support and/or neutral positions from all sides of the education spectrum.

    POSITIVE MEDIA COVERAGE

    Following the successful legislative passage, Mutch GR accomplished positive media coverage and worked with the client on an open-house for legislators and coalition partners – including a public bill signing event with the Governor.

  • HEALTHCARE REGULATORY ACHIEVEMENTS

    Mutch GR successfully influenced the legislative and regulatory processes in tandem, resulting in a positive regulatory outcome that evens the playing field among provider groups.

    INFLUENCING LEGISLATIVE AND REGULATORY PROCESSES IN TANDEM

    MUTCH GR was engaged following legislative approval of an imbalanced medical billing procedure. There was a need to influence the resulting regulatory process with the goal of achieving better parity within the regulations.

    A MULTI-PRONGED APPROACH

    Our multi-pronged approach to the regulatory process (participating fully in the public regulatory process with testimony & comments, outreach to coalition partners for support, and working with a group of supportive legislators who could dialog with the Administration), resulted in a favorable compromise that was adopted through the final regulations.

  • REFERRED MEASURE ACCOMPLISHMENTS

    Mutch GR was engaged as part of an eleventh-hour compromise between the Governor, legislative sponsors, diverse stakeholders, and an influential industry opposition group.

    COMPLEX NEGOTIATIONS

    The complexity of the negotiations pushed the legislation to an introduction under the very tightest deadlines: the legislature’s final three-day legislative deadline which created the most limited opportunity for legislative passage.

    AROUND THE CLOCK MOBILIZATION

    Mutch GR worked around the clock to mobilize a massive outreach to targeted legislators using client supported networks of influencers and targeting a bi-partisan group of legislators. By the end of those three-days, and following marathon negotiating sessions with numerous stakeholders, the legislation was successfully approved through the legislative process -- and was later approved by the voters as part of a multi-million-dollar ballot campaign.
