Based on my Rural Outdoor Investment Act, these bills will direct more investments to trails, boat ramps, and campgrounds that boost local economies and create good jobs. This will ensure that as demand for outdoor recreation in Colorado grows, rural economies grow too.

CO and the West are on the front lines of climate change. That’s why it’s more important than ever to invest in water infrastructure that can meet our state’s changing needs.
I’m grateful for the passage of this important package to protect CO’s vital waterways and resources.
✅ A 14.5% pay raise for junior enlisted service members and pay increases for all other service members.
Our service members sacrifice so much for our freedom. These pay increases will help ensure they get the compensation they deserve, in Colorado and nationwide.
✅ Over $216M secured for research, development, and deployment of national defense and aerospace technology.
This funding will improve our state and military readiness and capabilities in space.
✅ $68M secured for Buckley Space Force Base’s power resiliency project.
As Colorado leads America in space, this investment will support Space Force installations statewide.
We secured over $270M for Colorado in this year’s defense bill – support for our military bases, protections for children’s hospitals serving military families, and pay increases for service members.
Some highlights ⬇️
Alongside Senator Hickenlooper, I'm urging TRICARE and Children’s Hospital Colorado to fulfill their duty to military families ⬇️
Great news: the historic Boulder County Courthouse is officially a National Historic Landmark. This important site is an enduring symbol of LGBTQ+ rights and equality, and I’m grateful it is getting the recognition it deserves.
Yesterday, a gunman claimed the lives of two people at Abundant Life Christian School and injured others. I’m thinking of the victims of this tragedy, their families, and the entire Madison community. Congress must come together to fight for a future free from gun violence.
12 years ago, a gunman killed 20 students and six educators at Sandy Hook Elementary. Over a decade since this horrific tragedy, children across the country continue to live in fear of gun violence. Congress must step up to keep our students safe.
Invasive zebra mussels pose a serious threat to our water, environment, and economy.
Rep. Joe Neguse and my Stop the Spread of Invasive Mussels Act will help protect waters in Colorado and across the Rocky Mountain West.
This week, Congress passed my bill to safeguard water from the Colorado River for our communities, farmers, ranchers, and water users throughout the entire Basin.
This important legislation now heads to the President's desk to be signed into law.
I'm glad to see the U.S. support Ukraine using frozen Russian sovereign assets – at no expense to American taxpayers.
The U.S. must continue to stand with the Ukrainian people in the face of Putin's aggression.
In October, I joined my colleagues to call for the permanent increase of automatic extensions for immigrant and asylum-seeker work permits.
I’m glad DHS heard our calls to eliminate red tape for the sake of U.S. employers and the workers who keep our economy strong.
Great news: our Good Samaritan Remediation of Abandoned Hardrock Mines Act passed the House.
I’m grateful for the strong bipartisan support for this common sense legislation – I look forward to President Biden signing it into law.
Thousands of abandoned mines pollute our ecosystems and threaten our watersheds in Colorado and across the West.
I urge my House colleagues to vote in support of our bipartisan bill to clean up these mines, reduce pollution, and improve water quality.
We can’t risk an oil train derailment in the Colorado River. That’s why I've long pushed against the proposed Uinta Basin Railway.
As SCOTUS hears arguments on this dangerous project today, I’ll continue standing with community and local leaders to oppose it.
Congratulations and welcome to the two newest members of the Senate, Adam Schiff and Andy Kim - the first Korean American senator in our country's history.
I look forward to working with both of these incredible public servants to tackle our country’s most pressing issues.
Winter is almost here, Colorado! From skijoring to snow sculpture competitions, check out some of the many ways to take advantage of our beautiful state this season ⬇️
83 years ago, the horrific attack on Pearl Harbor claimed the lives of nearly 2,500 U.S. service members. We are forever indebted to the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice that day.
