Info | ANGELA WILLIAMS is the current Colorado State Senator representing Senate District 33. She is proud to serve such a dynamic and diverse community. Regarded as a leader who gets things done, Williams puts Coloradans first, working collaboratively on both sides of the aisle in a persistent effort to prioritize consensus on complex issues.
Williams is known as the Democrat Business Champion of the Colorado General Assembly. Williams’s primary focus is to open up the lines of communication between government and the private sector. During the interim, Williams travels throughout Colorado to have a dialogue with business organizations about how to improve the business climate in Colorado.
