On May Day, we recognize the enduring role that labor unions and workers have played in building a strong middle class in America. Through solidarity and collective action, they fought for and won fair wages, better benefits, and safer workplaces.
Today is 60 days since President Trump launched his reckless war in Iran. Under the War Powers Resolution, the President must withdraw U.S. forces after 60 days without congressional authorization — which we have not granted.
Without this program, rural hospitals in Delta, Montrose, Glenwood Springs, and San Luis Valley could lose a vital source of funding and may be forced to cut critical services or close their doors entirely — requiring rural Coloradans to drive hours to access the care they rely on.
Today, we introduced the Public Lands Integrity Act to stop federal public lands from being sold off to fund Republican’s spending sprees. This bill ensures that public land sales cannot be fast-tracked through budget legislation, keeping our public lands in public hands.
Glad to see the federal appeals court blocked the Trump Administration's mass-detention agenda — sending a clear message that due process must be upheld. No one, regardless of immigration status, should be imprisoned without basic constitutional protections. www.cbsnews.com/amp/news/app...
Trump’s Supreme Court continues to chip away at the Voting Rights Act, opening the door to voter suppression nationwide.  Congress must act now by passing the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act and the Freedom to Vote Act.
Today, we’re introducing a bill to make sure we can override the President’s political games, making sure our cities and counties get support when they need it most.
When Colorado faced historic flooding and wildfires, President Trump denied disaster relief to our communities. Disasters don’t care about state lines or politics — and neither should our President’s emergency response.
We held the line against Trump’s voter suppression bill. Now we’re fighting to block his illegal executive order targeting mail-in and absentee ballots. Stripping Coloradans of access to vote-by-mail is a desperate attempt to silence voices and undermine our gold standard elections system.
That should be a call to action for all of us—especially the Secretary of Health and Human Services. If Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has changed his view on vaccines, now is the moment to make that clear and help protect America’s kids.
World Immunization Week is a reminder that we have the tools to save lives. Last year’s flu season was devastating for children, and 89% of the kids who died were unvaccinated.
A time-honored event dedicated to the First Amendment and a free press was disrupted by violence that has no place in our country. Grateful that those in attendance are safe, and thankful to the Secret Service and law enforcement who acted swiftly to protect lives.
From gutting NIH research to slashing Medicaid and bankrupting rural hospitals, Trump and RFK Jr.'s assault on public health is hurting families all across America. The United States should be leading the world on public health, not dismantling it.
