Nothing says ‘Make America Great Again’ like denying 50,000 rural Coloradans access to clean, affordable drinking water. Congress should do its job and overturn Trump’s veto.

RFK Jr. is getting what he wants — public health decisions based on his conspiracy theories, not science. This decision will put the health of our children and communities at risk.
NCAR provides weather data that is critical for everything from agriculture to public safety.
Trump wants to gut NCAR and put our communities at risk. We will use every tool to keep that from happening.
We won’t let Trump rewrite history. The American people should always remember the attack on our democracy.

Five years ago today, Trump and his allies tried to overturn an election by inciting an insurrection that killed five police officers. He then began his second term by pardoning the violent rioters and his most loyal supporters.

At a time of rising costs for Americans, Trump is cutting child care services and resources for the most vulnerable families.
President Trump thinks this is a game, but these are people’s lives. www.axios.com/2026/01/05/t...
Happy Monday, folks. The Senate is back in session, but we can’t let it be just business as usual.
We’re still holding up the appropriations package to demand full funding for NCAR. We won’t let Trump continue to attack science and life-saving weather research.
Mark Kelly is a patriot who has served his country in combat, space missions, and the U.S. Senate.
The Trump administration’s threats and intimidation won’t stop Senator Kelly from standing up for the country he’s always served.
It’s Southeast Colorado today — your district tomorrow.
If any member from either party wants to actually deliver for their constituents, they’ll stand up and send a clear message. Congress should overturn Trump’s veto on our unanimous, bipartisan bill to finish the Arkansas Valley Conduit.
If you give a bully your lunch money, he’ll keep demanding more until you fight back.
We criss-crossed the state in 2025, meeting with constituents and visiting Colorado communities to discuss top-of-mind issues. Thanks for having us!
This project will bring water to 50,000 rural Coloradans. Farmers & ranchers are counting on the promises made by our government 60 years ago.
This unanimous bill is as nonpartisan as it gets. Yet Trump always finds a way to make people suffer rather than get things done. www.cpr.org/2025/12/30/t...
We can’t let President Trump leave rural Coloradans out to dry.
Our bipartisan bill to finish the Arkansas Valley Conduit was passed unanimously. Congress should overturn this veto as soon as possible.
These are mob boss tactics from Trump to bail his friend out of prison for a crime she was found guilty of by a jury of her peers.
Colorado won’t be intimidated. We’re standing up for justice and the rule of law.
Joint statement with @bennet.senate.gov on Trump’s veto of our bipartisan bill to finish the Arkansas Valley Conduit:
This was a bipartisan bill that passed the Senate and House UNANIMOUSLY.
Donald Trump is playing partisan games and punishing Colorado by making rural communities suffer without clean drinking water.
Congress should swiftly overturn this veto.
NEW: President Trump's first veto of his second term kills a unanimous bill to fund a major drinking water project in Colorado. Trump had threatened punishment for Colorado for imprisoning his ally Tina Peters. www.9news.com/article/news...
He was always generous to me with his time and wisdom. I will not forget his acts of kindness. He will be sorely missed.

Ben Nighthorse Campbell passed away this afternoon at the age of 92. He was from the Northern Cheyenne tribe, and served 6 years in the House and 12 years as a U.S. Senator. He was a master jeweler with a reputation far beyond the boundaries of Colorado.

Trump missed the deadline for releasing the Epstein files and instead dumped pages of redacted documents.
The law requires full release while protecting the victims. Americans deserve complete transparency.
Four years have passed since the Marshall Fire forever changed Boulder County. Today, we remember those we lost and stand with all who continue to carry its impact.
We’re deeply proud of our community’s strength and of the resources we’ve secured together to help rebuild and heal.
