Trump's Surgeon General nominee is wholly unqualified to lead the nation in making informed public health decisions.

Private prison contractors profiting from people detained at the Aurora detention facility is a moral failure we cannot ignore.
I will keep fighting for real accountability, transparency, and human dignity at every level of our immigration process.

I will continue to oppose Steve Pearce’s nomination.
Pearce has shown he will be the first to sell off our public lands which sustain Colorado’s economy and way of life. He will be an enforcer of Trump's reckless 'drill baby drill' policies and demolish the protections that ensure our kids and grandkids will benefit from public lands as we do today.
Steve Pearce’s nomination to lead the Bureau of Land Management is an insult to all Coloradans.
I will continue to fight for truth and protect Colorado communities suffering under Trump’s lawlessness.
Coloradans have witnessed the reality: American citizens shot and killed in U.S. cities, families living in fear and struggling to afford health care and groceries, and small businesses fighting for survival under the weight of Trump's tariffs.
President Trump has once again tried to convince us that what we have seen with our own eyes is not the truth.
Donald Trump wants you to think he’s brought back the Expanded Child Tax Credit.
He hasn’t. Under his plan, 19M children will be left out of the full credit — meaning hungry kids, struggling parents, and families falling behind.
For all his promises of peace, Trump has left America more isolated and the world more dangerous.
In one year, President Trump has ordered military action against seven countries and deployed federal troops to American cities without Congressional approval.
He has undermined NATO, the most successful alliance in history and alienated key U.S. allies with his tariffs.
Tonight, Trump is trying to sow distrust in our public elections.
The SAVE America Act will only make it harder for millions of American citizens — women, rural voters, seniors — to vote.
The SAVE America ACT is voter suppression. We won't stand for it.
Our priority should be expanding access to health care for our families. That’s why I will always fight against Republican efforts to cut Medicaid, take away ACA benefits, and strip funding and resources from rural hospitals.
While President Trump brags about his economy, Coloradans are struggling to afford the health care they need.
I'm fighting to return oversight authority to Congress and put an end to this costly trade war that is crushing Colorado families and small businesses.
After the Supreme Court ruled many of President Trump’s tariffs illegal, he doubled down and imposed additional tariffs that will continue to drive up costs and increase economic uncertainty across our state. His actions challenge the checks and balances of our democracy.
As the President delivers his State of the Union tonight, Colorado families are facing sky high prices on everything from housing to groceries.
President Trump is about to deliver the State of the Union.
Most Americans believe the state of the union is not strong — and that we're worse off than we were a year ago.

When Coloradans lose faith in the government, they turn to the leaders in their communities for guidance.
Thank you, Andrea Loya, for your courageous work at Casa de Paz — fighting for the dignity and humanity of immigrants facing detention and the families devastated by separation.
I will fight to make sure no taxpayer dollars are used to bankroll President Trump's cruel immigration agenda in Colorado.
