Trump is denying veterans the autonomy to make choices about their own health. Congress must immediately overturn this ban and restore full access to the reproductive care that every woman deserves. Veterans who sacrificed for our country shouldn’t be punished for their service.
Alex was an ICU nurse whose last moments were spent helping a woman who was harmed by immigration agents. We cannot let this administration continue to lie to the American people. I won’t stop fighting for truth and justice for the Pretti family.
Coloradans Susan and Michael Pretti, the parents of Alex Pretti who was shot and killed in Minnesota, are urging us to get the truth out about their son.
On #HolocaustRemembranceDay, we honor the six million Jews and millions of others murdered by the Nazi regime. Never again demands more than remembrance – it requires us to confront antisemitism, hate, and bigotry wherever it takes root.
My mother was born a Jew in Warsaw one year before the Nazi invasion of Poland. My mother and her parents escaped the Holocaust, but lost nearly everyone else in their family.
I am horrified to hear ICE murdered another person in Minneapolis this morning. This violence is wreaking havoc on our communities and it must stop. The President needs to remove these federal agents from our cities now. Kristi Noem must resign and the dehumanizing policies must end immediately.
This legislation hands ICE a blank check without sufficient safeguards or accountability. The Senate must reject this bill—and Kristi Noem must resign. (2/2)
From Colorado to Minnesota, ICE is detaining children, separating families, and patrolling American cities. I refuse to bankroll Kristi Noem's cruel agenda. That's why I'm voting NO on the DHS funding bill. (1/2)
This legislation hands ICE a blank check without sufficient safeguards or accountability. The Senate must reject this bill—and Kristi Noem must resign. (2/2)
In 2022, the Trump-appointed Supreme Court made history for all the wrong reasons—stripping away a constitutional right for the first time in generations. Colorado stood up in 2024 to safeguard reproductive freedom in our state constitution.
Trump has spent his first year back in office making life more expensive for Coloradans. He has hiked health insurance costs, driven up energy prices, and cut taxes for the wealthiest—all while his tariffs add thousands in annual costs for working families.
Earlier this month, President Trump froze over $300 million in vital support for Colorado families based on unsubstantiated claims of fraud. I led a bipartisan effort among members of Colorado's delegation to demand immediate answers from this administration.
Today we honor MLK Jr. as a leader who challenged America to live up to its highest ideals. As hate surges and civil liberties are systematically eroded across the nation, we are falling short of his vision of justice.
These tariffs will raise costs for American families and undermine our national security. They will only make life more expensive and less safe. Congress must reclaim its authority and reject these efforts before Trump does further damage to our most vital alliance. apnews.com/article/gree...
