While Trump is taking over Venezuela, ICE is shooting Americans, and.costs are skyrocketing, House Republicans are voting on a bill to police shower heads. Their complete capitulation to this admin is unacceptable. They refuse to do any oversight while wasting valuable time on pointless bills.
Republicans claim to support an “all-of-the-above” approach to energy dominance, but are actively undercutting renewable energy sources. The administration renamed the National Renewable Energy Lab to the National Lab of the Rockies because they want to erase the importance of renewables.
Reopening broken coal plants doesn’t lower energy bills—it raises them. This administration is doing everything it can to increase costs for Coloradans and punish our state. I led a letter last year urging the EPA to reverse course and leave Colorado alone. coloradosun.com/2026/01/09/t...
Great news: a federal judge just temporarily blocked Trump’s attempt to freeze funds for childcare and food assistance in Colorado. His effort is illegal, and I will continue to fight his blatant politicization of funds that help the most vulnerable families in our state. tinyurl.com/ms489rkf
I had the honor of serving in Congress with @GabbyGiffords for 5 years before she was shot and almost killed 15 years ago today. Her spirit was unbreakable then, and it remains so now through @giffords_org. I am proud to call Gabby my friend and to stand with her in the fight against gun violence.
This health care affordability crisis did not appear overnight. Democrats sounded the alarm for a year. Donald Trump and Republicans responded by passing their Big Bad Bill to kick 15 million people off their health care— all to fund billionaires’ tax breaks. Remember who they chose.
I am proud to call Steny my friend and colleague, and I wish him, his wife Elaine, and his entire family the best as he ends a historic career in Congress and begins his next chapter.
Congressman Steny Hoyer epitomizes what public service is about - a willingness to do anything to make the lives of the American people better. He has been a mentor & ally for my entire career as he helped lead our caucus through challenging moments, intense debates, & legislative victories.
The reports coming out of Minneapolis of a federal agent shooting and killing an American citizen are deeply alarming. ICE must leave Minneapolis immediately to deescalate the situation and the administration must be held accountable.
Extending the Affordable Care Act tax credits is a short term fix to lower health care costs, and we're forcing a vote to do just that. But I know that our health care system needs major reform. That’s why I have championed universal health care as the top Democrat on the Health Subcommittee.
This admin is making unreasonable demands of Denver Health and Children's Hospital Colorado, forcing them to stop critical care for kids who need it, risking their mental and physical health at risk. If Trump finalizes these cruel policies, I'll introduce a bill to overturn them. buff.ly/qrPSMOC
While some attempt to whitewash the events of January 6, we will remember how our democracy was threatened at the direction of Donald Trump, and work to never let it happen again.
Today, I stood with my colleagues in the House and Senate to mark the 5th anniversary of the January 6 insurrection and to thank the men and women of law enforcement who helped defend the Capitol that day. I was in the gallery that day. I will never forget the terror I saw.
Therefore, I urge my Republican colleagues to leverage their relationship with the administration and end this blatantly political attack against the most vulnerable families in Colorado. And, as a member of the House Litigation Task Force, I am exploring legal action to reverse these unlawful cuts.
Five years ago today, Donald Trump incited a violent mob to storm the Capitol in an attempt to overturn a free and fair election — the most brazen attack on our own government by a sitting president in American history. Read my full statement:
Trump and RFK Jr. aren’t just gambling with lives today—they’re sabotaging the future of American medicine. Researchers will abandon their work here rather than live under an administration hostile to science itself.
Every reputable health care provider knows this is a dangerous and terrible idea. Without these vaccines, more children will die from preventable illnesses. The flu alone has already killed nine children this season.
