The firing of one of our top cybersecurity officials at the urging of a known conspiracy theorist is outrageous. We are already facing unprecedented cybersecurity threats and this only makes America more vulnerable.

Forest Service employees protect our headwaters, safeguard our communities from wildfires, and ensure Coloradans’ access to our public lands.
The Trump Administration’s plans to downsize this agency disregard Colorado’s way of life and threaten the safety of our communities.
#MonthoftheMilitaryChild is an opportunity to highlight the important role and unique experiences of the nearly 2M military children across the country, including over 46K here in Colorado.
This month and always, I’m grateful for the commitment and sacrifices of all military families.
Trump’s tariffs will cost American families $3,800 a year on average – the largest middle-class tax increase in a generation.
While this administration makes it harder and harder for working families to get by, President Trump “couldn’t care less.”
President Trump’s across-the-board tariffs will sow chaos and uncertainty – and working Americans will bear the cost.
These shortsighted trade policies will harm hardworking Colorado families struggling to make ends meet. I will use every tool at my disposal to fight against this.
Republicans want to sell off public lands to pay for tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans.
Coloradans aren’t interested in giving away our heritage to the highest bidder. I’ll fight to keep public lands in public hands.
Senator Murkowski and I pressed the Trump administration to address the recent decision to rescind critical protections for unaccompanied migrant children.
I won’t stop pushing to ensure immigration proceedings for innocent children remain fair, efficient & protective against trafficking.
President Trump’s mass HHS layoffs include employees who:
✅Oversee food and drug safety
✅Track bird flu
✅Administer health insurance programs for nearly half the country
If this administration is trying to make America healthier, they are doing a terrible job.
As President Trump starts trade wars with our closest allies, the stock market marked its worst quarter since 2022.
We don’t have to wonder IF these shortsighted policies are harming the American economy – they already are.
On #TransDayofVisibility, we celebrate the contributions and resilience of trans people in Colorado and across the country.
Now more than ever, we must stand up against hate and discrimination and recommit to building safer, more inclusive communities for transgender people.
Donald Trump is proving once again that he has absolutely NO respect for the Constitution or the rule of law.
This action is blatantly illegal and a major affront to our country’s democratic values.
Proposed cuts to Medicaid could affect 1.2 million Coloradans - including children, senior citizens, and people with disabilities. It will devastate families across the state and harm our rural health centers and hospitals. We cannot allow this to happen.
On behalf of Colorado, good luck to Aurora's Vedanth Raju, who will be representing our state at the 2025 Scripps National Spelling Bee.
Congratulations on this incredible honor, Vedanth – we will be rooting for you!
Great news: the Sundance Film Festival is moving to Boulder! This annual film festival is the largest of its kind in the U.S. - I'm so glad it will be calling Colorado home.
Colorado and the West face increasingly severe natural disasters, including some of the most catastrophic wildfires on record in recent years.
This week, Senator John Curtis and I introduced two bills to cut red tape and help ensure our communities and watersheds can recover when disaster strikes.
I am sorry to hear about the passing of Brian Vogt. My family and I will cherish the legacy he left behind at the Denver Botanic Gardens.
In Colorado, women make just 76 cents for every dollar a man earns. It is unconscionable that a gender wage gap still exists. Congress must pass the #PaycheckFairnessAct to ensure equal pay for equal work. #EqualPayDay
It’s been four years since the King Soopers shooting in Boulder, when the lives of 10 Coloradans were cut tragically short. Today, I’m thinking of the victims of this senseless act of gun violence, their families, and the Boulder community as it continues to heal.
I was glad to hear from hundreds of Coloradans last night at my town hall in Colorado Springs. Our conversation covered everything from standing up for Ukraine to protecting public education. In case you missed it, you can watch the full recording on YouTube ⬇️
