Senate Republicans released the latest iteration of their reckless budget bill last night. The bill slashes funding for health care & food assistance for working people, and increases the deficit by trillions. But don’t worry — they spend $40 million on Trump’s “Garden of Heroes.” Seriously.

Rep. Joe Neguse@neguse.house.govJun 28(source)

No matter how much House Republicans try to ignore the climate crisis — which is making wildfires across the West more severe and pervasive — we won’t stop sounding the alarm!

Rep. Joe Neguse@neguse.house.govJun 27(source)

Today’s Supreme Court’s decision is reckless and misguided. But as a son of immigrants, let me be clear — the legal fight to preserve birthright citizenship, and push back against unlawful executive orders, is far from over.

Rep. Joe Neguse@neguse.house.govJun 27(source)

As we mark the 10th anniversary of Obergefell v. Hodges, which legalized same-sex marriage, the Trump administration is now attacking fundamental civil rights protections. We must all recommit to the fight for equality for the LGBTQ+ community — just as trailblazer Clela Rorex did so valiantly.

Rep. Joe Neguse@neguse.house.govJun 27(source)

Senator Mike Lee is now trying — for the third time — to sell-off YOUR public lands to the highest bidder. We’ve built a bipartisan coalition to repeatedly block his efforts, and will keep doing so until he gets the message: Our public lands are not for sale! 🏔️🏔️🏔️ apnews.com/article/publ...

GOP plan to sell more than 3,200 square miles of federal lands is found to violate Senate rules

A plan to sell more than 3,200 square miles of federal lands has been ruled out of Republicans’ big tax and spending cut bill after the Senate parliamentarian determined the proposal by Senate Energy ...

As Colorado’s first African-American Congressman, I was honored to participate over the past weekend in Longmont’s Juneteenth community event — grateful to commemorate the important holiday with our Black community!

Rep. Joe Neguse@neguse.house.govJun 26(source)

Update — The effort by Jim Jordan & House Republicans to limit courts from enforcing contempt orders against the Trump administration — which I fought against — has been BLOCKED by the Senate parliamentarian.

House Republican’s effort to limit the power of courts to enforce contempt powers is plainly unconstitutional. Full stop. 👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽

Republicans attempted to deny their plans for defunding Federal courts that have ruled against the Trump administration. We brought receipts 🧾🧾🧾

Conservationists, outdoor enthusiasts, ranchers, fisherman and countless others across Colorado all agree — our public lands are not for sale. A joint statement with my Republican colleague Rep. Jeff Hurd on the removal of the public lands selloff from the budget reconciliation bill. 👇🏾

Rep. Joe Neguse@neguse.house.govJun 24(source)

Update — The Senate parliamentarian has BLOCKED the public lands sell-off as outside the scope of reconciliation. While the fight isn’t over, we’ll keep using every tool to protect our public lands!

In the last five years alone, Colorado has experienced four of the five largest wildfires in our state’s history. As these fires grow more frequent, we must do more to prepare. Proud to have introduced a legislative package to invest in wildfire science and innovate our approach to mitigation.

Rep. Joe Neguse@neguse.house.govJun 20(source)

Honored to introduce bipartisan legislation that extends the Vietnam War Commemoration program, which is set to expire later this year. Today and every day, we must honor and recognize our brave Vietnam War-era veterans for their sacrifices. We will keep working to get this across the finish line!

Rep. Joe Neguse@neguse.house.govJun 20(source)

If Congress passes President Trump's budget plan, it would be the largest loss of health care coverage in our nation’s history. Many rural hospitals will shut down, and folks will have thousands in uninsured medical bills. 👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽

Colorado leaders, Western Slope health care clinic ramp up pressure for Congress to reject Trump’s ‘big beautiful bill’

Happy Juneteenth!

Proud to join Jill & Michael White in renewing our calls for swift enactment of the Magnus White Cyclist Safety Act — named in honor of their incredible 17-year-old son who tragically lost his life after being struck by a motorist. Together, we are calling for common sense measures that save lives.

We're halfway through 2025, and we’re proud to have already returned over $12.3 million to constituents across our district! From helping veterans access their earned benefits to assisting with Social Security & Medicare, we’re grateful to help citizens navigating federal agencies. Onwards!

The Trump administration’s cuts to the NIH are unlawful, and will have disastrous consequences for Colorado’s research institutions and biomedical programs — which is why I’m proud to lead the Litigation Task Force today in our effort to reverse these actions in court!

CSU's Colorado 4-H assists over 110,000 youth in Colorado annually through various programs, including projects on life skills, natural resources, and much more. Wonderful to chat with the organization's leadership & volunteers last week.
