August is National Breastfeeding Month!
Support and education for new parents on breastfeeding is crucial for the health and well-being of both moms and babies. I hope this month helps raise awareness and expands access to resources for families everywhere.

It was an honor to join the West Metro Fire community in celebrating two exceptional leaders. As Chief Don Lombardi retires after a distinguished career of service, we welcomed Jeremy Metz as he steps into the role with the same dedication and integrity.
Last week, I met with Chaffee County public health, human services, & community leaders to talk about the crisis Trump has created. The people hit hardest will be families in our rural communities. I know many are scared about what's next, but we need to keep working together to fight back.
I joined the @DemWomenCaucus in demanding ICE require agents to show a clear ID after disturbing reports of women being assaulted by ICE impersonators.
Trump’s allowing agents to operate in masks, plain clothes, and unmarked cars. We need oversight, transparency, and basic safety protocols now.
It's National Back to School Day! Today, I can't help but worry about the families in CO & across the country who are being forced to pay high prices for school supplies. I’ll keep fighting to lower costs so every kid is set up for success this school year.
I heard firsthand from providers and administrators at @PPFA, which is reeling from Trump’s Big Bad Bill.
The court’s pause is temporary — thousands still risk losing care.
When I was younger and uninsured, I relied on Planned Parenthood for cancer screenings and basic reproductive care.
For nearly a century, Social Security has been one of the best tools to lift people out of poverty. But today, seniors are struggling as Trump’s Big Bad Bill send costs up. I will keep fighting to protect it from Trump’s cuts & ensure that after paying in, every American can retire with dignity.
Ahead of the 90th anniversary of Social Security, we hosted a roundtable at the Seniors Resource Center to discuss the benefits it has provided & the threats this safety net faces under Trump.
I’m more committed than ever to protecting this lifeline. Republicans should be absolutely ashamed.
It’s terrifying that the hundreds of billions of dollars dedicated to ICE and their unlawful actions are going to be more widespread and impact Colorado. They’re overwhelmingly targeting people without any criminal history. What’s happening is unlawful, unconstitutional, and disgraceful.
Trump’s plan to seize control of D.C.’s police & unleash the National Guard on the city’s youth & homeless is lawless and a terrifying abuse of power.
Does anyone really think the twice-impeached, twice-indicted instigator of a violent insurrection cares about public safety?
Pets are family. No one should have to choose between a safe place to sleep and keeping them.
Proud to join @RepJasonCrow at @HumaneCo to introduce the PUPP Act to ensure Coloradans experiencing homelessness aren't forced to abandon their pets.
Another lie from Trump.
He never planned to ensure medical coverage for IVF treatment, and his handpicked Supreme Court justices have put IVF at risk in numerous states.
I know how important it is that we reduce the barriers so many face, but like most things, Trump is taking us backwards.
I joined members of Colorado Democratic Delegation in a visit to the GEO ICE facility in Aurora. I’m deeply concerned about the well-being of the people who are being detained at this facility and Trump’s unlawful use of ICE.
I'm joining my CO Democratic colleagues in calling on CMS to renew Colorado’s Medicaid waiver program to ensure our kids will have continuous medical care.
This continuity of care prevents our kids from slipping through the cracks and is an investment in the lives of those who need it the most.
So many of us on the Front Range know too well how hard bad air quality days are, especially for our little ones. Now Trump gave the go-ahead to make our air quality worse by giving power plants unlimited ability to pollute. This is going to be bad for our health & needlessly expensive for taxpayers
Donald Trump said he would lower costs on day one. He lied. The only costs he lowered were for the wealthiest people.
He’s even going after the 8 million Americans with student loans. Borrowers will now be forced to pay down the interest on their loans. Failure to pay will lead to financial ruin.
Remember when Trump promised to eliminate government fraud & waste?
His Big Bad Bill does the opposite – explicitly protecting states with the most errors from cuts.
It was never about efficiency. It was always about taking away food & health care from the people who need it most.
In Colorado, we know firsthand the devastating cost of wildfires. Trump is withholding the millions of dollars we rely on to make sure our community is prepared.
I joined members of our delegation in pressing @USForestService to release these funds.
Water is life in Colorado but Trump is illegally withholding $140M for Colorado River projects.
These funds are critical for drought relief and Western Slope infrastructure.
I joined colleagues across the aisle to demand their release. Every day of delay puts our future at risk.
No president, including Trump, should have unchecked power to send troops into our communities. We have all been horrified watching what happened in California, which is why I co-sponsored the Insurrection Act, so no future president can abuse their power and antagonize our communities.
