Champion of Small Business and our Environment
Jill would make an excellent Councilmember because she is reasoned, thoughtful and fair-minded. She is champion of small business and her commitment to protecting our wonderful natural environment and outdoor life in Colorado Springs is second to none. Jill has my full support in her race for Council District 5.- Richard Skorman -
The right skill at the right time
Jill has the right skills, life experiences and philosophy to make a great councilwoman. She is a fiscal conservative who understands the needs of people and I am supporting her in her run for election to Colorado Springs City Council. ~Kathy Loo

Brings a fresh view as a “socially moderate” conservative
Jill Gaebler, at 46, brings a fresh view as a “socially moderate” conservative with supporters from all philosophical sides. Her involvement with the nonprofit sector has given her an understanding of the local homeless situation — likely to be a big issue in 2013 — and she admits “our city is in trouble. “I see cranes in Denver, but there’s no building here,” meaning commercial or industrial.
She’s paying enough attention to notice that “our Business Alliance is spending too much time trying to bring business here. My tack would be to give more support to local businesses, especially those trying to improve our existing blighted areas.” We also like her interest in young professionals, saying, “Creative capital goes where it’s welcome.”
