When Mike Lee tried to sell off 3 million acres of our public lands last time, we shut him down. I'm leading the fight to make sure no one can try to auction off our public lands through a backroom budget deal ever again. Our kids' inheritance is not for sale. www.kunc.org/regional-new...
The Trump Administration must clear this backlog immediately so that Dreamers serving Colorado as first responders, law enforcement officers, healthcare workers, and firefighters can continue to serve and protect the communities that depend on them.
Colorado will not be intimidated. Our election system is secure, transparent, and trusted by Democrats, Republicans, and unaffiliated voters. We will not dismantle a system Coloradans trust to satisfy a president still peddling election lies.
From launching a food truck to earning one of the most prestigious honors in the culinary world, I am thrilled to celebrate Chef Wong and her remarkable team on this recognition.
Happy Father’s Day to all the dads across Colorado! My girls are the reason I continue to fight every day for Colorado’s future, making our state better for them and the generations who will inherit it.
This was a taxpayer-funded slush fund to reward Trump loyalists, including Tina Peters. If it's truly dead, rescind it. Put it in writing. The rule of law demands more than empty assurances.
Lynn Bartels was a force in any newsroom. Colorado will miss her inspired and intrepid voice and her sharp wit. Susan, the girls, and I send our love to Lynn’s family with gratitude for her great service to journalism and to our state.
This day marks a critical milestone in our nation's fight for freedom, one that demands we continue to push towards the highest ideals of equality that our Constitution has always promised, but has never fully delivered.
Happy Juneteenth, Colorado! Today, we commemorate the end of slavery and honor the legacy of Black Americans who have helped build Colorado and our nation.
Trump let DACA renewal wait times balloon 360%, putting their families and livelihoods at risk. I’m leading the charge with @neguse.house.gov to demand the Trump Administration immediately expedite DACA renewals for every Coloradan in this absurd backlog.
The Iranian regime remains in power, retains nuclear material, and keeps its leverage over the Strait of Hormuz — while Trump offers the release of frozen funds and $300bn for reconstruction, even as American families pay more at the pump because of his war. The American people deserve better.
President Trump has announced a "deal" to end his reckless and costly Iran war. Ending this war is necessary. But Trump’s deal appears to be a bad one.
President Trump is doing exactly what he said he'd do: taking a wrecking ball to the Department of Education. By offloading special education and civil rights offices' onto agencies that have no business or experience running a classroom, it's Colorado's most vulnerable kids who will pay the price.
