It’s been five days since election denier Tina Peters walked out of prison and went right back to spreading lies about Colorado’s gold-standard election system. Her release doesn't make those lies any more true. Colorado's elections are secure, and conspiracy theories won't change that.
For months, House and Senate Democrats have pushed War Powers Resolutions to reign in the President's recklessness. We must pass this resolution immediately.
My colleagues and I are demanding Trump answer for these skyrocketing prices and explain his plan to bring them down. The President is squeezing working families with rising costs and must deliver relief to Colorado by ending his war now.
We need to stop Donald Trump's corrupt DOJ deal that protects him and his family from tax audits and ensure no future administration can abuse government power in the same way. I'll keep fighting his lawlessness.
I’ve also filed amendments to ensure critical ICE reforms, which Republicans have repeatedly refused to adopt. Whether it's election deniers, unaccountable immigration enforcement, or a President who thinks the rules don't apply to him, I'll keep fighting lawlessness and defending the rule of law.
Tonight, I filed amendments to eliminate the "Anti-Weaponization Fund," block Donald Trump's corrupt DOJ settlement that shields him and his family from tax audits, and prevent any future administration from creating similar schemes.
Trump's corrupt deal with his own Justice Department tries to put the President above the law. I'm leading the charge to demand answers from the Treasury Secretary and IRS CEO about this DOJ settlement that handed the President and his family a license to dodge IRS scrutiny and accountability.
I’m leading members of the Colorado delegation to welcome $1.8M+ for the Colorado Small Business Development Center — critical funding I've fought to release so that small business owners across all 64 counties have the resources and support they need to sustain and grow their businesses.
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
