It’s been over 3 weeks since Adelita Grijalva was elected — but Mike Johnson is still refusing to swear her in. Could it be because she’s the 218th signature needed to release the Epstein files? What's in those files anyway? 🤔
Colorado families & businesses depend on affordable, reliable energy. Yet the DOE’s decision to abruptly cancel $600 million in CO energy projects threatens jobs, raises costs, & undermines grid stability. My CO Democratic colleagues & I are demanding the answers that Coloradans deserve. ⬇️
Mike Johnson is keeping House Republicans home, but that won’t stop @housedemocrats.bsky.social from showing up to do our jobs.    My colleagues and I came back to D.C. this week, ready to reopen the government and prevent health care costs from soaring.
Trump has illegally canceled nearly $517 million for 34 Colorado projects—part of almost $28 billion frozen nationwide, mostly in Democratic-led states and districts. He’s using the government shutdown to punish millions of Americans, and everyone will suffer because of his corrupt actions.
It's been two weeks since Trump and Congressional Republicans shut down the government. Meanwhile, House Republicans have fled D.C. Democrats and I are on duty in Washington, ready to reopen the government and take action to protect health care & lower costs for millions of Americans.
Trump is using the shutdown to destroy the nation's premier public health agency. Don’t be fooled – Republicans control the House, Senate, and White House, & gutting public health was their plan all along. Congress must assert its Constitutional authority to stop these illegal & partisan actions.
The release of the remaining hostages and prisoners is welcome news as we work towards an end of the conflict in the Middle East. Now, there must be a massive surge of humanitarian aid into Gaza and a coordinated effort to rebuild.
On Indigenous Peoples Day, we honor the Indigenous communities that have shaped the identity of Colorado and our country. Today is not only a celebration of their culture and immense contributions but a reminder of our responsibility to uphold the promises made to tribal nations.
Donald Trump is corruptly weaponizing the Justice Department to go after his political enemies. The indictment of Letitia James is another step towards authoritarianism, and his base is cheering it on. This is a dark path our country is on, and it must stop.
Congratulations to Rent-A-Theme Entertainment in Denver for being recognized as one of America's top 100 small businesses by the Chamber of Commerce. Denver’s entrepreneurs continue to make our city great and our residents proud!
Americans see through RFK Jr.’s unscientific crusade. His reckless tirade erodes trust in our health institutions and puts more lives at risk. We must hold Donald Trump, RFK Jr., and their fact-free agenda accountable — and fight for a public health system rooted in science, not conspiracy.
The announced deal between Israel and Hamas is promising, and I hope it will lead to the end of this brutal conflict – with all the hostages released and massive humanitarian aid surged into Gaza. There is much work to do, but lasting peace in the region must be the goal.
Today, I met with federal workers to discuss how the GOP’s shutdown is hurting working families, as thousands across CO are furloughed or working without pay.   Their stories were a powerful reminder of what’s at stake—and why Republicans must come to the table to help us reopen the government.
Congressional Republicans didn't just shut down the government — they turned their backs on Americans’ health care. Here in Colorado, community health centers that serve low-income families are running out of federal funding because of GOP inaction. This is what their chaos costs.
Republicans are willing to let critical ACA assistance expire as families are staring down a 114% increase in their premiums. In Denver, a family of four could see their annual premiums go up by over $2,500. Enough games. Let’s open the government, extend ACA assistance, & keep care affordable.
Trump & his GOP allies in Congress shut down the government as the Epstein Files discharge petition sits just 1 signature short. Adelita Grijalva is ready to be sworn in, but instead, Speaker Johnson gave House Republicans more vacation time. They seem awfully scared of releasing those files.🤔
