Q

A nonpartisan policy group in Colorado

The record was always public.
Now you can actually read it.

We write real, ready-to-file legislation. We grade every Colorado lawmaker against one public standard. All of it is open, and any of it can be checked by anyone who wants to.

See how your lawmakers are actually doing.

The Accountability Hub scores every Colorado lawmaker on the bills they file and the votes they cast. One number, one formula, published in full. Every score can be checked against the public record, and every change to a score is logged where you can see it.

Live in Colorado. Updated every Sunday.

Every lawmaker held to the same standard.

What we do not do, so you are not surprised later

We only cover Colorado right now. We do not score city or county offices. The federal and judicial scores are built but not live yet, and we would rather leave them dark than publish something we cannot stand behind.

The Q Score also measures one thing: a public record against seven pillars. It cannot tell you whether someone is decent to their staff, whether they return your call, or whether they were right about something the record does not capture. Use it for what it is, and use your own judgment for the rest.

When we get something wrong, we correct it in public and leave the old number visible. Every change is in the audit log.

We follow the seven pillars, wherever they lead.

We do not pick a team. We pick the seven pillars of life stability, and we follow the evidence wherever it goes, including past people who assumed we were on their side. Here is where that shows up in the work.

Where workers and employers meet

FWMRA

Honest grounds and fair process for workers. Capped, predictable liability for employers. Unions do not get a blank check and chambers do not get pure at-will. Both sides give something to get something.

Security, without new taxes

CESA

Real economic security, funded through TABOR-compliant enterprise structures with no new taxes. It is too much government for one side and not enough for the other. That tension is deliberate.

The letter after the name is not an input

The Q Score

Every lawmaker is scored on the same formula, against the same public record. The letter next to a name is not an input, because it does not tell you anything about whether someone showed up.

Built to hold together.

Each framework holds up the one above it, from a Colorado family’s stability all the way to the Constitution. State, federal, regional and constitutional. Together they form the maveriQ Doctrine: real legislation and real tools, built as one connected whole.

State, federal, regional, constitutional.

Someone has to put their name on it.

An organization that grades named public officials should not get to stay faceless itself. My name is maveriQ B Jackson. I founded The Q Collective, I write most of what is on this site, and I live in Colorado.

If you think we got a score wrong, you know exactly who to tell.
