Americans agree: Presidents and Vice Presidents shouldn't profit from personal crypto schemes while in office. This week alone, President Trump is set to make over $90M from issuing memecoins. (1/2)
Right now, Senate Republicans are forcing over $1B in cuts to public broadcasting. This attack on news outlets like NPR & PBS threatens stations across the country and in Colorado that are lifelines for rural & tribal communities. I will keep speaking out & fighting against these disastrous cuts.
I joined my colleagues to demand that the Trump administration end the weaponization of immigration court hearings as an inhumane trap to arrest immigrants. These tactics are a manipulation of the law and a cruel replacement for proper immigration enforcement. (1/2)
The Republican Budget Bill abandons the historic progress we made towards building a clean energy future and burdens Coloradans with higher energy costs as a result. I urge every Coloradan to take advantage of the clean energy tax credits before they expire as soon as this year.
As Republicans' budget bill slashed Medicaid for the most vulnerable, it quietly cut off access to abortion and critical reproductive care for thousands of Coloradans. This is an attack on publicly-funded health care and a blatant attempt to take away Americans' reproductive freedoms.
Today is Black Women's Equal Pay Day, a reminder that Black women are paid just $0.64 for every dollar paid to their white male counterparts. It is unconscionable that this pay gap still exists. Congress must pass the Paycheck Fairness Act & fight for policies that ensure equal pay for equal work.
157 years ago today, the 14th Amendment was ratified, enshrining Americans' rights to equal protection under the law, due process, and birthright citizenship. As the Trump Administration tries to erode these fundamental rights, I'll keep fighting back.
Republicans campaigned on the promise of balancing the budget and reducing our deficit. On July 4, they passed a bill that will add trillions to our national debt. For too long, Republicans have promised one thing and done another. The American people will pay the price.
It's great to hear that UFCW Local 7 union members in Colorado reached tentative agreements with Safeway/Albertsons and King Soopers this weekend. Congratulations to the UFCW Local 7 Bargaining Committee – I am grateful for their hard work in this fight, especially over a holiday weekend.
Colorado's parks are a treasured part of our way of life and outdoor recreation economy. This July, I hope everyone gets the chance to get outside and enjoy our extraordinary public spaces.
Happy Park and Recreation Month, Colorado! This month and every month, I am grateful to the more than 160,000 full-time park and recreation employees working to maintain the lands we love.
