Tina Peters left prison exactly as she entered it: repeating the same debunked lies and conspiracy theories that got her there. No remorse. Just lies. I will keep fighting to protect our democracy and stop Trump’s taxpayer-funded slush fund before a single dollar is paid out.
Handing Bill Pulte the keys to our deepest, most sensitive national security secrets is reckless and dangerous. I will do everything in my power to fight his appointment.
Today’s ruling is a critical step in the right direction for science, the hundreds of public servants at NCAR, public safety, and Colorado. Read my statement ⬇️
We must stand united against the unprecedented surge in antisemitism – with the Jewish community, for freedom of speech and religion, and against fear. We must fight for a nation where all people can protest peacefully and practice their faith free of hate. Hate has no home in Colorado.
One year ago today, a horrific antisemitic terror attack devastated Boulder's Jewish community. We mourn Karen Diamond and remember the countless lives forever changed by this act of hate.
Tina Peters is out of prison and already spreading the same false claims about Colorado elections that led her to commit four felonies in the first place—all in service of Trump’s Big Lie. That’s not what remorse looks like. Read my statement⬇️
✅ Ensure U.S. intelligence support for Ukraine — now and throughout any peace deal ✅ Strengthen intel cooperation with Indo-Pacific allies and partners to deter China ✅ Require national security assessments before exporting advanced AI tech
Recently, I sat down with our spring class of D.C. interns to learn what excites them about public service. I'm deeply grateful for the work our interns do to show up for Coloradans each day.
President Trump's executive order attacking mail-in voting is illegal. Colorado decides how Colorado votes. Not Trump. I'm fighting to defend every Coloradan's freedom to vote.
Colorado's mail-in voting sets the gold standard for the country, and I will not allow Donald Trump try to take it from us. Make no mistake: this isn't about our election system security, this is about making it harder for Coloradans to vote.
Donald Trump’s slush fund is an illegal abuse of taxpayer dollars. Plain and simple. It’s baseless corruption and we're going to stop Tina Peters and Trump's allies from getting CO taxpayer money one way or another.
Eid Mubarak, Colorado! Wishing our Colorado Muslim community a joyful celebration of Eid al-Adha. May this holiday be filled with faith, community, and peace.
I'm working with Rep. Jason Crow to expand Colorado's approach nationwide, helping communities around the country better respond to mental health crises while strengthening public safety.
Coloradans are paying 60% more at the pump because of President Trump’s reckless war. He is forcing Colorado families to make an impossible choice between a full tank of gas or food on the table. Trump must end this war NOW.
We honor his memory by refusing to look away and by strengthening our resolve to continue the work ahead. Public safety and justice go hand in hand, and our work is not finished.
