Big news: the Denver Health Dental Assistant School is now open! 🦷 I was proud to secure federal funding to help get this project over the finish line, which means more providers and new opportunities for Colorado students to train and serve our community.

🚨 The GAO just confirmed the Trump Administration broke the law by blocking NIH grants & slowing lifesaving research. It's time for the GOP to get serious — we cannot let Trump continue to illegally undermine lifesaving research or surrender our biomedical leadership. There's too much at stake.

Trump administration violated impoundment law by canceling NIH grants, slowing new awards, GAO finds

The Government Accountability Office found that the Trump administration, by abruptly canceling NIH grants, had violated a 1974 federal law

Rep. Diana DeGette@degette.house.govAug 5(source)

The GOP attempt to redistrict mid-decade is a blatant power grab. Voters should pick their legislators, not the other way around. In light of these anti-democratic efforts, states like CO that have independent redistricting commissions should stop their work until everyone plays by the same rules.

Congrats to Denver International Airport on the opening of its new East Security checkpoint. It was great to see this state-of-the-art facility, as well as DEN’s air traffic control tower, & I look forward to seeing this hub continue to grow & serve as a gateway to all that Colorado has to offer. ✈️

Rep. Diana DeGette@degette.house.govAug 4(source)

Today marks 5 years of the Great American Outdoors Act and its Legacy Restoration Fund. I was proud to help pass this bipartisan, critical investment—supporting 17 projects across Colorado, and protecting our public lands for the next generation.

Rep. Diana DeGette@degette.house.govAug 1(source)

Happy #ColoradoDay! On our state’s 149th birthday, I’m proud to lead Colorado’s delegation in Congress and uplift the voices of all the Denverites who call the Centennial State home.

Rep. Diana DeGette@degette.house.govJul 31(source)

Over 30 years ago, I wrote Colorado’s clinic safety law to protect patients from harassment & intimidation. Anti-abortion extremists are still trying to overturn it—but once again, the courts said no. I'm proud of this law, and I will keep defending the right to safe, dignified health care.

Federal judge rejects challenge to Colorado 'buffer zone' law for abortion clinics

A federal judge on Tuesday rejected a Denver woman's challenge to Colorado's 32-year-old law restricting proselytizing at abortion clinics, with the ultimate goal of the litigation being to ask the…

I am calling on Secretary Rubio to answer questions about this organization, its funding, and why trusted and qualified aid groups were shut out in favor of GHF. (3/3) ⬇️

Organizations like the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation are supposed to be delivering lifesaving aid to address this crisis, but their work has raised significant concerns with violent incidents at their distribution sites leading to hundreds of deaths. (2/3)

Rep. Diana DeGette@degette.house.govJul 31(source)

The humanitarian crisis in Gaza is worsening by the day, and the Trump Administration should be working around the clock to help end this suffering. (1/3)🧵

See stories from Medicaid recipients in Denver about what this program means to them. ⬇️

Rep. Diana DeGette@degette.house.govJul 30(source)

For 60 years, Medicare & Medicaid have helped Americans live longer, healthier lives. Yet the Big Bad Bill slashes these vital programs and rips care from 240,000 Coloradans alone. I will not stop fighting against Trump’s extreme agenda and reversing these devastating cuts.

Rep. Diana DeGette@degette.house.govJul 30(source)

Congress gives NIH funding to support lifesaving research & groundbreaking treatments. Russ Vought and OMB have no authority to override that with the stroke of a pen. There must be accountability for this directive, and Vought must answer to Congress—and the people—for this reckless overreach.

Trump administration reverses course, lifts pause on NIH grant awards

The order applies to the entirety of new and, possibly, ongoing research grant dollars that go to universities and academic medical centers.

Rep. Diana DeGette@degette.house.govJul 29(source)

As a longtime advocate for bold environmental policy, I’ll fight these short-sighted moves every step of the way. We owe it to future generations to stand up to polluters and defend our planet.

Rep. Diana DeGette@degette.house.govJul 29(source)

The EPA should be using every tool it has to fight climate change and protect public health—not walking away from its responsibility because of partisan politics. Gutting this finding ignores the overwhelming science of climate change, opens the door to more pollution, and puts lives at risk.

EPA proposing to repeal climate ‘endangerment finding’ Tuesday

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) will propose Tuesday to repeal its landmark 2009 finding that greenhouse gases pose a threat to the public. EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin announced the timi…

Rep. Diana DeGette@degette.house.govJul 28(source)

Glad these school funds are finally being restored—but they never should’ve been frozen. I joined my colleagues in demanding the Trump Admin unfreeze these critical dollars for our schools and will continue to push back against their chaos in court.

Trump administration releasing $6 billion in education funding it withheld

The $6 billion in education programming frozen by the Trump administration earlier this month is being released, according to a Department of Education spokesperson.

Trump touted lowering tariffs on Japan to 15% as a 'massive deal.’ But 15% is not a 'deal' at all. As co-chair of the Study Group on Japan, I'm sounding the alarm on the diplomatic & economic damage his reckless tariffs are causing in the region. Read my full op-ed with @bera.house.gov‬ below. ⬇️

Trump’s tariffs undermine America's security, business and credibility

Donald Trump may have given up on free trade, but the American people have not.

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

Five years ago, I helped pass the FDA’s streamlined over-the-counter medicines program, ensuring the products in Americans' medicine cabinets are safe, effective, & accessible. Today, my bill to reauthorize this program passed out of committee, ensuring the FDA can continue its important work.

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

NIH has long been the gold standard of biomedical research worldwide, but under the Trump Administration, that leadership is at risk. My resolution with @repauchincloss.bsky.social & @raskin.house.gov‬ recognizes the vital role of America’s scientific community and its leadership in innovation.

Rep. Diana DeGette@degette.house.govJul 22(source)
