Coloradans deserve better access to affordable, high-quality health care.
Instead, Republicans voted to increase health care costs for working families just to give extra handouts to wealthy Americans.
Shutting down America’s clean energy progress will hike energy costs for families and hinder our energy independence. It’s irresponsible as much as it is misguided.
We deserve to know exactly what we are paying for whether it’s a lab test, a colonoscopy, or an MRI. Our bipartisan bill gives Americans that peace of mind.
Clip from the Grand Junction Daily Sentinel
You wouldn’t book a flight if you couldn’t find out the ticket price until you land, or check into a hotel without knowing if you’re paying for the Ritz or a dump. But that’s the absurd guessing game Americans play every time they need medical care.
Republicans turned their backs on Coloradans and voted to rip away health care from millions of Americans.
It means that Coloradans could see their health care premiums increase by over 28%, and 100,000+ Coloradans could lose their coverage altogether.
Raising construction prices with these reckless tariff-taxes is a surefire way to keep families from the American dream.
The Republicans’ Big Beautiful Bill throws our rural communities and working families under the bus – all to pay for trillion-dollar tax cuts for the ultra-wealthy.
As the current administration peddles anti-science views and denies the reality of climate change, the next generation is standing up to innovate and work towards a better future – and we have their back.
This is a mess of the administration’s own making. They fire our public lands workers and then force firefighters to clean up the mess during peak wildfire season. Unbelievable.
This reckless trade war has always meant that working families and small businesses would see higher prices.
What happened to lowering costs on day one?
Remember, Trump and Republicans swore up and down they weren’t going to cut Medicaid and health care.
Then they did it anyway.
As we mark thirteen years since the Aurora movie theater shooting, we remember the victims of this horrific attack.
We won’t ever stop fighting for stronger gun laws to keep our communities safe and combat the epidemic of gun violence.
Tariff-taxes are driving up prices across the board for working families and small businesses.
When I was Mayor, we made Denver’s government more efficient. When I was Governor, we balanced the state budget – and took Colorado from 40th in job creation to the best economy in the nation.
We don’t need to take a sledgehammer to basic services to make government more efficient.
Small businesses are cutting back operations, citing uncertainty. American families are finding that their household budgets are getting tighter and tighter.
These tariff-taxes are turning out to be a horrible idea (who knew!).
Thank you to the bravery of the firefighting crews who are battling the wildfires along the Western Slope.
