@BroomfieldFish is the only food bank & resource center in Broomfield keeping families fed & supported. They’re worried about Trump’s Big Ugly Bill, but their staff & volunteers reminded me of their resiliency—I know they’ll do whatever it takes to support families.
Grateful to join the Colorado Business Roundtable to discuss challenges facing CO businesses—from Trump’s reckless tariffs to immigration policies straining our workforce. I’ll keep fighting his disastrous agenda & support policies that help families, small businesses & our economy thrive.
Annie Farmer. Anouska De Georgiou. Jess Michaels. These are a few of the survivors here in DC telling their stories after enduring unimaginable abuse at the hands of Epstein. Trump wants to silence them. We won't let them be erased. We only need a few Republicans to join us & do the right thing.
School is back in session across Colorado, including at CO School of Mines! I met with faculty & leadership about funding cuts & unlawful withholding of research funds. Mines is building the next generation of innovators, we can’t let these cuts jeopardize our future.
Trump said he wouldn’t cut Medicaid. That was a lie. Now he’s coming for Medicare, forcing seniors to skip prescriptions, closing rural hospitals, & straining nursing homes, all so he can hand out more tax breaks to the ultra-wealthy. https://bit.ly/4lRbEtX
So grateful to meet with Resilience1220 & hear about the lifesaving support they provide Evergreen youth. Thanks to CO legislation we’ve expanded mental health care, but Trump’s cuts put progress at risk. If you’re struggling, you’re not alone, call 988.
Happy Labor Day! Today we honor the workers who keep our country running. Fair wages & safe workplaces aren’t guaranteed, but CO workers are resilient. As I return to DC, I’ll bring their voices & fight for their rights after the passage of the OBBB.
Trump’s Big Ugly Law slashes Medicaid, SNAP & more—hurting CO families. But places like EChO give me hope. From food & housing to mental health support, they’re a lifeline. Demand is rising, but their work proves community power—we’ll weather this storm together.
Being out in the district hearing about the challenges ahead is heavy, but leaders at @ActionCenter give me hope. Their plan to turn a closed school into a one-stop hub for food, clothing & health care shows what’s possible when community steps up.
62 years ago, Americans marched on Washington demanding liberty & justice for all. Their footsteps changed history, but the march never ended. With Trump threatening to erase progress, we owe it to the next generation to keep marching until freedom & equality are real for all.
Left lunch at @GirlsIncDenver so inspired by the amazing girls & women I met 💖 As a woman in politics, I’ve felt overlooked, so it meant a lot to share what it’s like being a mom in Congress, the barriers women still face & the power we have when we lift each other up.
Thanks to Pioneer Energy for inviting us to learn more about the issues they face securing federal grants for responsible energy production. Since Trump was sworn in, millions of dollars in grants have been withheld, I'll always fight to support the innovative work of businesses like this one.
Grateful to visit @stridechc in Wheat Ridge to see the care they provide for families who need it most. But because of Trump, many could lose access. I’m working with local providers to show how essential these services are, our dollars should go to families, not billionaires.
Many in our community fear proposed budget cuts — not just to HUD — that put 200,000+ Coloradans, including domestic violence survivors, at risk of losing safe housing and support. We’re fighting to protect these critical services because families deserve better.
Heartbreaking doesn’t even do it justice. I’m devastated by another school shooting in Minneapolis. No family should endure this heartbreak, no child should wonder if school is safe. Thoughts & prayers aren’t enough, we need real action. apnews.com/article/minn...
I joined my colleague & fellow mom Rep. Pressley to demand Sec. Rubio take urgent action. While steps are being taken to get more aid into Gaza, the US, UN & Israel must prioritize baby formula. As a mom, I can’t fathom the desperation parents face, every minute counts.
Imagine a military blockade stands between you & the ability to feed your hungry baby. That's the reality for parents in Gaza. @pettersen.house.gov and I are leading 101 Members of Congress demanding Sec. Rubio pressure the Israeli govt to surge aid and formula to babies at risk of starvation.

We're already feeling the ramifications of Trump's Big Ugly Bill here in CO. I met with Wheat Ridge leaders who shared real concerns about the fallout. I know our local leaders' commitment & our ability to work together will help us navigate the difficult road ahead.
When we’re not voting on the House floor, it’s rare the CO delegation is all in one place. While we had different takes on the impacts of Trump’s big ugly bill on Colorado, I’m grateful to the @cochamber for hosting a conversation about the issues that are critical to our state.
If you’ve visited a national park this summer, you may have noticed dirty bathrooms or neglected trails. That’s because Trumps layoffs are making us less safe with fewer people to manage the land and reduce wildfire risk. CO's public lands are part of who we are and deserve protection.
I’m honored to join in introducing a bipartisan resolution that recognizes today as Fentanyl Prevention & Awareness Day. I stood by my mom, who struggled with addiction. She is now celebrating 8 years in recovery. This day aids in the work of spreading awareness & advocating for access to treatment.
