Policy Soup stir the pot ALPHA

I won't stop fighting for a complete overhaul of leadership and operations at DHS.

I voted NO on the Republican DHS bill, as it does nothing to hold ICE agents accountable or stop families from being torn apart. Senate Republicans refused to guarantee basic accountability measures, leaving critical agencies like FEMA and TSA without funding while the Senate takes week off.

Trump and Senate Republicans have abandoned the middle class—weakening our economic security and leaving future generations to pay off trillions in debt.

U.S. Budget Hole Set to Deepen by Trillions

President Trump's so-called "Big Beautiful Bill" will add over $3 trillion to our national deficit. While Trump hands tax cuts to billionaires and large corporations, deficits are soaring to the highest levels since World War II.

The budget deficit will widen over the next decade as interest costs consume an increasing share of spending, the CBO said in a forecast that highlighted the country’s long-run fiscal challenges.

I will continue to fight so Colorado taxpayers get the health care resources they've paid for.

Trump administration slashes Colorado public health grants, but full impact unclear

President Trump's reported CDC cuts will gut programs that prevent disease and address health disparities across Colorado's rural towns and most vulnerable communities. This isn't about budgets. This is the latest stop on Trump’s Colorado revenge tour.

Colorado hasn’t received notice of the canceled grants and can’t comment on the amount of lost funding or what projects it will affect.

For the second time, President Trump and his Justice Department have failed in their blatant political prosecutions. @crow.house.gov — and the rest of our congressional colleagues — deserve better. I continue to stand in this fight with them.

Donald Trump’s DOJ just tried—and failed—to indict me in front of a grand jury. We will continue to fight back against their rising tyranny. Don’t Give Up the Ship.

The Trump Administration's continued attacks on scientific integrity and technological advancement will have devastating consequences for Coloradans and our nation's energy economy.

Colorado's National Laboratory of the Rockies has been leading the world on energy innovation for decades. The researchers are global leaders in their fields, and staff across the Lab are committed to upholding the highest standards of excellence regardless of who is in office.

Colorado athletes dominate winter sports. In Milan Cortina, Colorado has more Olympic athletes competing than any other state. From Steamboat Springs to Durango, Coloradans are representing our state on the world stage. Colorado, let's bring home the gold!

Congress must make Russia pay a further price for its aggression and clarify the U.S.’s long-term commitment to Ukraine’s sovereignty and security – an effort I look forward to helping lead.

I was glad to see Chairman Stefanchuk again last week to reaffirm Congressional support for continued U.S. military, intelligence, and economic support for Ukraine.

Amid Putin’s intransigence in negotiations and daily attacks across Ukraine, the Ukrainian people remind us every day what it looks like to fight and die for democracy, for their country, and for the West.

Colorado is not only home to the U.S. Olympic and Paralympic Committee, but at the 2026 Milan Cortina Winter Olympics, we also have the largest delegation of athletes representing America. Let’s bring home the gold!

Colorado is sending more athletes to the Milan Cortina Winter Olympics than any other state

With the Olympics underway, I am looking forward to cheering on Team USA, and I applaud these athletes' commitment to excellence, team spirit, and fair competition.

The skiingest state in the U.S. is sending 29 skiers and snowboarders, two figure skaters and a bobsledder to the 25th Winter Olympics

The President of the United States posted an abhorrent, racist video on social media — and he’s refusing to apologize or admit it was wrong. It’s a disgrace and it’s well below the Office of the President.

Today, I conducted an oversight visit of the Aurora ICE detention facility. Now more than ever, we need more oversight—not less. I won’t stop fighting for access, transparency, and accountability at every level of our immigration system.
