## Resource

The legal fight over the gender-affirming care clinic at Children’s Hospital has taken another twist; the hospital says it’s ready to follow a court order and resume care, but its doctors are afraid they’ll face federal sanctions. Then, in Mesa County, the Republican primary for clerk could put an election denier in the office once filled by Tina Peters. And detailed new elevation calculations mean the official mile-high mark in Denver is about to move, again. Email us at coloradotoday@cpr.org . Colorado Today is supported by CPR’s members .
