Instead of ending his trade war and bringing down costs to help struggling ranchers, President Trump is prioritizing his friendship with Argentina’s president & his country’s beef producers over our own.
Colorado ranchers and their families deserve stability, not politically driven trade policies.

Higher premiums will force working families across the state to choose between health care and other necessities like groceries or rent.
And yet, Republicans refuse to extend this critical lifeline.
(2/2)
Coloradans who purchase health insurance through the ACA marketplace may see their premiums double or triple next year.
This is unacceptable.

The proposed acquisition of Tegna — the parent company of 9News — by Nexstar, would make it the largest local broadcasting company in the country & threaten local journalism in Colorado and beyond.
Proud to partner with @bennet.senate.gov in imploring the FCC to reject it.
Next year, a couple in El Paso County could be forced to pay $950 a month for health insurance.
This is the real cost of Republicans' refusal to negotiate to extend premium health care tax credits for working families.
Coloradans cannot afford it.
If Republicans don’t work with Democrats to prevent health care premiums from skyrocketing:
A couple in Jackson County would pay over $1400 a month for health insurance.
There are real costs to Republicans’ refusal to negotiate, and Coloradans cannot afford it.
We must protect this landscape, its vital wildlife and ecosystems, and the sovereignty of Arctic Indigenous peoples.
(2/2)
President Trump’s repeated attempts to exploit one of the last truly wild landscapes in America will have irreversible consequences.
The Arctic National Wildlife Refuge is simply too precious and culturally significant for oil and gas development.

As many federal workers continue to work without pay, I’ve refused to accept my own and will donate my salary to Colorado organizations in need once Republicans come to the table and finally end their shutdown.
Up to 100,000 Coloradans could lose their health coverage if ACA premium tax credits aren’t extended.
This is an issue of life and death. Republicans must come to the table now to prevent the loss of this lifeline before it’s too late.
Amid Putin’s barrage of attacks – and his unwillingness to seriously negotiate an end to this conflict – we must provide greater support for Ukraine’s air defenses, continue intelligence-sharing, and, in concert with our allies, leverage Russian sovereign assets on Ukraine’s behalf.
(2/2)
These long-overdue sanctions on Russian oil producers should be the first of several steps to increase pressure on Putin to end his war on Ukraine.
(1/2)
This is a betrayal of Colorado's ranchers, and I will do everything I can in my position on the Senate Ag and Finance Committees to fight for them.
(2/2)
Drought and rising costs continue to crush Colorado ranchers.
President Trump has needlessly inflicted more pain with his trade war, and by bailing out Argentinian beef producers at the expense of our own.
(1/2)
We are less than two weeks away from a health care crisis in this country, with premiums set to skyrocket, and Republicans refuse to work towards a solution.
That’s why I voted NO for the 12th time against their partisan budget bill.
Republicans must negotiate now.
Skyrocketing health care premiums are blindsiding families, with some rising thousands of dollars more a month.
Republicans must negotiate to extend ACA premium tax credits or force households to choose between affording their health insurance or their rent & groceries.
We’re running out of time.
Thank you to everyone who joined my virtual town hall yesterday to make your voices heard on the Republican shutdown and other issues impacting Colorado.

Coloradans are receiving letters that their health care premiums are going to double or triple, and yet Republicans continue to push their partisan budget bill that ignores this looming crisis.
I voted NO for the 11th time to stop them.
It’s time to negotiate.
