I’m deeply saddened about the devastating floods in Texas over the weekend. 

As we continue to learn more about this tragedy, I am praying for the families of those who were lost and I am keeping all of the region in my thoughts as they grieve, recover, and rebuild.
Nearly 250 years ago, our nation was born with a promise of liberty and justice for all. This Independence Day, we remember the sacrifices of those who fought for our freedoms as we seek to make that promise come true for every American.
Just as bad, their bill adds trillions to the national debt and worsens our deficit— even as the so-called most fiscally conservative GOP members just voted to pass it. Jeffries was right — in Colorado, we’d say these folks are all hat, no cattle. Shameful. House Democrats will press on!
During his record-breaking speech, Leader Jeffries called out House GOP’s hypocrisy & extremism. They’ll have to explain to their constituents why they supported a bill to gut Medicaid & SNAP, and defund Planned Parenthood, after publicly railing against the devastating cuts they just voted for.
Republicans say the Big Ugly Bill targets “waste, fraud, and abuse,” but what they really mean is cutting qualified people off a lifeline they rely on. In fact, Medicaid coverage for ~377,000 Coloradans could be at risk. Kicking people off their insurance to fund billionaire tax cuts is cruel.
Here’s how the Big Ugly Bill would impact Colorado’s 8th District.   🏥 29,000 people would lose access to healthcare 🍞 30,000 households would lose access to food nutrition programs ⚡️ Nearly 1,000 energy jobs will be lost   Colorado can’t afford the Big Ugly Bill.
We won't stand by as House Republicans try to pass this monstrosity that slashes health care, food assistance, reproductive care, & more just to line the pockets of billionaires. (2/2)
More than 1.2 million Coloradans rely on Medicaid—yet Trump’s Big Ugly Bill would put their care at risk. By imposing onerous paperwork requirements, over 377,000 Coloradans could lose coverage. I won’t stand by while Republicans gut the care that hard-working families rely on.
Senate Republicans just forced through the Big Ugly Bill and it now comes back to the House. I will be voting NO on this bill, and I will fight tooth and nail to stop Trump’s cruel cuts to health care and food benefits that the most vulnerable Coloradoans rely on.
Our state is home to some of the most unique and treasured landscapes in the country, and for many Coloradans and visitors, these outdoor spaces are what make life here so special. This National Park and Recreation Month, we’ll continue to work so that our parks are accessible and enjoyable for all.
Trump’s Big Ugly Bill would rip health care away from 16 million Americans—including kids, seniors, veterans, and people with disabilities. Hospitals may close and people could die, all so billionaires can get more tax breaks. There is no justification for these cruel cuts.
🚨 The CBO found that the Senate’s version of Trump's Big Ugly Bill would add $3.3 trillion to the national debt. This bill is a farce. Not only will it drag our country into more debt, but it does nothing to make life better for hardworking families — no relief, no lower costs, no real solutions.
Research shows the lowest-cost path to cut Colorado’s emissions relies on renewable energy to keep energy affordable and reliable. While Colorado has been a leader in clean energy, Trump's Big Ugly Bill will drag us backwards, putting jobs, grid reliability, & lower energy costs at risk.
The Fourteenth Amendment to our Constitution is clear: people born in the United States are citizens. Today’s decision is a procedural loss, but we will continue fighting hard to preserve our Constitutional rights.
Trump’s Big Ugly Bill is dangerous, putting patients and providers at risk. If his cuts to Medicaid are passed, Colorado hospitals could lose $10 billion, making it harder for Coloradans to get the care they need. I’m fighting to stop it because our communities can’t afford these cruel cuts.
