Honored to receive @acscan.bsky.social’s National Distinguished Advocacy Award. I will always fight for policies that support cancer patients, survivors, and their families, and continue to work alongside advocates leading the fight for a cancer-free future.

🚨 House Republicans want to rip away your health care to appease Trump. 🚨 Their cuts in the Big Bad Bill mean over 29K Denverites will lose Medicaid coverage & 22K more will see their costs skyrocket if they let ACA premium assistance expire. I won’t let your health care take a backseat to Trump.

Rep. Diana DeGette@degette.house.govSep 25(source)

From day one, I’ve said Medicaid paperwork requirements don’t save money or make people healthier—and a watchdog just confirmed it. Yet Trump & his GOP allies jammed them into the Big Bad Bill, wasting taxpayer dollars & kicking people off their health care. We need real solutions. Not failed ideas.

Georgia’s Medicaid Work Requirement Program Spent Twice as Much on Administrative Costs as on Health Care, GAO Says

Republican lawmakers cite Georgia’s Pathways to Coverage as a national model for federal Medicaid work requirements that are set to take effect in 2027. A new report shows the program has spent at…

Now more than ever, it is critical that Americans listen to their doctors and health care teams for medical advice. The American people cannot trust RFK Jr. & Trump to put the American people's health and well being above their own evidence-free beliefs. (2/2)

Rep. Diana DeGette@degette.house.govSep 23(source)

RFK Jr. and Donald Trump have found neither a cause of autism nor a clearly effective treatment. According to doctors and the best available science, Tylenol is safe and effective for use in pregnancy and helps avert greater risks from fever and pain. (1/2)

Great to visit students and Principal Goss this morning at South High School. Go Ravens!

Shana Tova to everyone in Denver celebrating Rosh Hashanah. May the new year bring you peace and joy.

My full statement on H.Res. 719.

Rep. Diana DeGette@degette.house.govSep 19(source)

Instead of working with Dems to fund the government, lower costs, & protect access to care, Republicans took their cues from Trump, jamming through a go-it-alone bill. They can spin it—but Americans see the truth: health care costs will go up, coverage will be lost, & lives will be put at risk.

Rep. Diana DeGette@degette.house.govSep 19(source)

House Republicans are missing the forest for the trees. Their partisan funding bill fails to extend ACA subsidies & locks in devastating Medicaid cuts. In Colorado, 240,000 will likely lose coverage & Denver families face $210 a month premium hikes. That’s the real impact of the Big Bad Bill.

Rep. Diana DeGette@degette.house.govSep 18(source)

Donald Trump and his administration are exploiting the horrific murder of Charlie Kirk to silence and censor anyone they want. ABC pulling Jimmy Kimmel off the air is capitulation to the Trump admin and a threat to our First Amendment rights.

ABC suspends Jimmy Kimmel’s late-night show indefinitely over his remarks about Charlie Kirk’s death

Nexstar announced its ABC affiliates would pre-empt “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” indefinitely over his comments.

Everyone deserves access to a hospital when they need it. However, the Big Bad Bill puts safety net hospitals—and their patients—at risk. That's why I’m leading a letter urging House leaders to halt devastating Medicaid DSH cuts that would saddle hospitals with $443 billion in uncompensated care.

The American people are watching the crown jewel of America’s biomedical & cancer research be dismantled under RFK Jr.’s reckless leadership at HHS. As the top Democrat on the Health Subcommittee, I won’t stand idly by—I’ll call this out every hearing, every time. We must act before it’s too late.

Rep. Diana DeGette@degette.house.govSep 18(source)

In case 15 million people losing coverage under the Big Bad Bill wasn’t enough, the CBO now says 1.5 million more Americans will go uninsured if Congress delays extending the ACA tax credits. It’s time to stop gambling with people’s lives. Congress must extend the ACA tax credits NOW.

Rep. Diana DeGette@degette.house.govSep 17(source)

Just signed on to the Protecting Health Care and Lowering Costs Act to repeal the Big Ugly Bill’s cruel Medicaid cuts and extend ACA tax credits that keep premiums affordable. With open enrollment starting Nov. 1, Congress must act now—or millions will lose coverage or face skyrocketing costs.

Rep. Diana DeGette@degette.house.govSep 17(source)

Republicans control the House, Senate, and White House, yet are unable to come together and implement any meaningful, long-term solutions. (2/2)

Rep. Diana DeGette@degette.house.govSep 17(source)

I would vote for a budget that reverses the Big Bad Bill's Medicaid cuts and extends ACA tax credits and other health care programs that address diabetes prevention and maternal mortality. The GOP CR fails to do any of that. (1/2)

Rep. Diana DeGette@degette.house.govSep 17(source)

Donald Trump and RFK Jr. are gutting cancer research while ceding America’s global health leadership & putting lives at risk. I will always stand up for American biomedical research. That’s why I'm demanding that we conduct vigorous oversight to keep politics out of our public health.

Rep. Diana DeGette@degette.house.govSep 17(source)

Proud of these young Coloradans standing up against gun violence and showing that they refuse to accept the cycle of school shootings that has plagued our nation.

Students plan walkouts across Denver metro area Wednesday to show support for Evergreen after shooting

Students across the Denver metro area will make their voices heard by participating in walkouts Wednesday to take a stance against gun violence and to stand in support with the Evergreen community.

🚨Trump is destroying our nation's cancer research system🚨 Not only has it saved millions of lives, but it's on the verge of some of the biggest breakthroughs yet. We can’t let politics derail critical progress—Congress must act to keep America leading the world in research & saving lives.

Trump Is Shutting Down the War On Cancer

America’s cancer research system, which has helped save millions of lives, is under threat in one of its most productive moments.
