State Executive Board
Chairman
Josh Sonnenberg
Josh’s political roots run deep—he was campaigning in parades by age 8 and became 2nd Vice Chair of the Logan County GOP at just 19. Now, as a 4th-generation Colorado rancher and seasoned conservative leader, he’s bringing Eastern Plains grit to the statewide stage. When he’s not managing Sonnenberg & Sons Cattle with his wife and kids, you’ll catch him behind the plate—umpiring baseball or coaching his boys’ teams. As Chair, Josh is on a mission to grow the bench and keep Colorado’s conservative movement charging forward. Let’s ride!
Co-Chairwoman
Laci Williams
A proud Colorado native and CU-Denver grad, Laci has been a driving force in the conservative movement from the start. She spent seven years with Turning Point USA, working her way up to South Central Regional Manager—leading teams and building campus chapters nationwide.
Now the social media manager at Rocky Mountain Voice, Laci brings sharp strategy, bold leadership, and unapologetic conservative values to everything she does.
When she’s not in the trenches, you’ll find her golfing, tuning into The Ben Shapiro Show, or walking her Yorkie sidekick, Nitro.
Vice-Chairman At Large
Sean Verhoeff
A proud Lamar native and retired U.S. Army Staff Sergeant with the 101st Airborne, Sean brings unmatched grit and grassroots firepower to the team. Since taking on government overreach in 2006, he’s founded the Young Conservative Leaders of Colorado, trained RNC canvassers, and knocked on over a million doors in support of GOP campaigns. He now runs his own insurance agency in Colorado Springs—but his favorite title? Dad. Sean cherishes time with his daughter and loves hitting the mountain trails on his bike when he's not in the fight for freedom. We’re lucky to have a battle-tested leader like Sean back on board! 🇺🇸
