His commitment to equality demands we never give up. As his dream remains unfinished, the work falls to us.

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.

President Trump’s threat to impose tariffs on our European allies — part of his absurd quest to take over Greenland, a part of Denmark — risks splitting the NATO alliance, much to China and Russia’s delight.
President Trump's continued, dangerous threats to annex Greenland risk shattering NATO, the most successful alliance in world history, and inviting further Russian aggression.
Congress must reject the President's threats.
Denmark is a model NATO ally whose troops have fought and died alongside ours. Both Greenland and Denmark's leaders have made it clear that Greenland is not for sale.
NOW: I'm on the Senate floor to defend funding for the National Center for Atmospheric Research. This is the latest attack by the Administration in their pursuit of vengeance against Colorado.
Tune in to watch!
I've introduced bills to extend these critical programs, which support American jobs and U.S. national security – including by countering China's influence in sub-Saharan Africa. The Senate must reauthorize these programs without delay. (2/2)
This week, the House passed bipartisan legislation reauthorizing trade programs for sub-Saharan Africa and Haiti. (1/2)
I will not vote to advance any further nominees to the Federal Reserve while this attack on the institution remains ongoing.
President Trump's clear attack on the Federal Reserve's independence threatens our economic stability and our position as the world's largest economy. It does nothing to reduce prices, create jobs, or support Colorado families.
Thank you, Stephen, for your dedication to our students' future and to teachers across our state who serve their students and communities every day. (2/2)
Congratulations to Stephen Paulson on the historic honor of 2026 Colorado Teacher of the Year AND as the first educator in the Greeley-Evans School District to be selected for this incredible recognition. (1/2)
He has built an economy that does nothing for Colorado families but make a middle class life more expensive and less attainable for themselves and their children. (2/2)
Yesterday’s jobs report makes clear: President Trump is more interested in political retribution and self-enrichment than creating opportunities for working Americans. (1/2)
DHS owes the American people full transparency on what happened in both Portland and Minneapolis, and the federal government must work with local and state governments to deliver an accurate and trustworthy investigation.
That's why I'm pushing Congress to uphold our duty to check Trump's recklessness and hold hearings on Trump's plan to work with Venezuela's authoritarian regime and exploit its oil.
[2/2]
The American people deserve clarity as to why President Trump, after capturing Maduro, has kept our military off the coast of Venezuela and what his plan is moving forward.
[1/2]
The DOE should focus on lowering costs and working with communities on their energy transition, not accelerating Trump’s vengeful attacks on our state.
The Trump Administration's decision to force an outdated coal plant in Craig to stay open puts even higher costs on Coloradans already struggling with rising energy prices.
