Nearly 20% of Coloradans who rely on Medicaid could lose health care coverage due to the Republican Budget Bill.
I urge my Republican colleagues to put American lives over their desire to please President Trump.

Republicans are rushing to pass their Budget Bill to appease President Trump's arbitrary deadline.
What they aren't telling you: this bill will harm our children the most by adding trillions to the national debt, kicking people off of health insurance, and taking SNAP away from our most vulnerable.
It's nearly midnight and I'm on the Senate floor to expose the Republicans dangerous lies about their budget bill.
It will increase our national debt by trillions all while gutting health care, raising energy costs, and threatening food security. It's bad policy and I'm voting no.
Colorado is leading the nation on clean energy, and I will support amendments to remove this reckless provision from the final bill.
In the dead of night, Republicans added a new dangerous provision to their Budget Bill - a tax on wind and solar energy. The bill now not only slashes investments in wind & solar, but places an expensive penalty on those projects. This will crush these industries & make our energy more expensive.
Great news for Pueblo, Colorado! Atlas Holdings just announced that they will acquire EVRAZ North America. EVRAZ is the leading steel producer in the U.S. and Canada.
This move will increase jobs and investment here in Colorado and ensure we're on the forefront of the steel industry.
I voted for today’s War Powers Resolution to prevent the United States from creeping into another war in the Middle East without explicit Congressional authorization.
The decision to go to war with Iran is too important for any President to make alone.
I’m grateful Colorado will keep defending the 14th Amendment in our courts—and I’ll do everything in my power to continue the fight.
The 14th Amendment to our Constitution establishes that when you are born in the United States, you are a citizen of our country. Because our state filed a pending case against President Trump on this issue, Coloradans are protected from today’s SCOTUS ruling.
It was great to get to sit down with my office's summer interns in D.C. and thank them for the work they're doing.
Students and recent grads: my Colorado and D.C. offices are now accepting applications for our Fall Internship Program. Learn more: www.bennet.senate.gov/services/stu...
Today marks the 10th anniversary of Obergefell v. Hodges, which legalized same-sex marriage across the United States.
While we celebrate how much progress has been made, we must also recommit to fighting for LGBTQ+ equality, especially as the Trump Administration attacks civil rights protections.
The Medicaid cuts from the Republican Budget Bill are bad enough, with an estimated 155,000 Coloradans losing their coverage as a result. If Republicans fail to extend health tax credits on top of changes to ACA, another 100,000 Coloradans will lose their insurance.
President Trump has no right to withhold from Congress classified information regarding the Iran strikes. He should never have delayed briefing Congress in the 1st place. The nation's intelligence agency leadership must attend tomorrow's Senate briefing, in addition to Secretaries Hegseth & Rubio.
Last night, we kicked off our annual Colorado Capital Conference. Each year, this conference gives Coloradans a unique opportunity to engage with our nation's leaders and share ideas to make our state stronger.
As extreme temperatures are becoming more common, we need to be working on solutions. Instead, Republicans are using the budget bill to claw back environmental protections and historic investments in clean energy.
Colorado! It's hot out there! With near record breaking temperatures the potential for heat related challenges is high. Drink water, spend time indoors, and stay diligent on the roads.
No matter your party or how you prefer to get outside – Coloradans are clear: our public lands are not for sale.
I’m grateful to @neguse.house.gov and Rep. Jeff Hurd for standing firmly against the radical proposal to sell our heritage.
Three years ago today, the conservative majority on SCOTUS overturned 50 years of legal precedent.
Since then, maternal mortality rates have grown consistently in states where access to abortions are restricted or banned. I will continue to fight for reproductive health care in CO & across the U.S.
Read my full statement on the U.S. airstrikes on Iran below:
Coloradans have been clear: our public lands are the foundation of our economy and represent treasured parts of our culture, our geography, and our history. Our public lands are not for sale, and we're going to fight like hell to protect them.
