Small businesses across Colorado are being crushed by Trump's reckless trade war, pushing small businesses to raise prices, cut staff, or close their doors altogether. I'm proud to support a bill that makes sure that our small businesses aren't bearing the brunt of these disastrous policies.

RFK Jr. — the notorious anti-vaxx, conspiracy theorist with zero background in health care — is having his hand-picked panel decide the future of our kids' health & safety. You truly can't make this stuff up. Please listen to doctors, not anti-science extremists.
RFK Jr.'s vaccine panel defers vote on hepatitis B shot for babies until Friday
The current recommendation for babies to receive a hepatitis B shot within 24 hours of birth is credited with driving down infections in kids by 99%.

Traveling with your kids is already stressful enough without having to worry about TSA tossing your baby's formula or breast milk. That's why I'm so proud my bipartisan BABES Act with Rep. Swalwell & Sen. Duckworth was just signed into law!

BREAKING: My bipartisan BABES Enhancement Act is now law! 👏 This law is about making it easier for parents to fly with breastmilk and breastfeeding supplies, ensuring TSA keeps its employees up to speed with its own policies and more. Huge win for families.

I know this year hasn't always felt hopeful. But when I think back on the people I've met across the 7th District, I'm reminded of the good we're capable of when we come together. You give me hope that we can build the future our kids deserve. Happy Thanksgiving from my family to yours.

I join the nation in heartbreak after learning two National Guardsmen were shot in DC today. Violent acts targeting our brave military have no place in America. I'm grateful for the law enforcement officers who acted swiftly to save lives & deeply sorry for the family of the two service members.

Three years ago, our LGBTQ+ community was targeted and five innocent lives were taken at Club Q in Colorado Springs. We’ll never forget them & we’ll keep fighting for a Colorado where every LGBTQ+ person can live openly & without fear. My heart is with the survivors, families, & community today.
‘We can keep going’: Colorado Springs remembers Club Q shooting victims 3 years later
Three years after a mass shooting that took the lives of five people at an LGBTQ+ nightclub in Colorado Springs, members of the community are remembering those lost that night.

Trump continues to deflect & distract from the damning evidence connecting him to Epstein & victims. That's why he has gone to unprecedented lengths to ensure the files aren't released. Release ALL the files. The victims deserve justice & accountability, & the American people deserve the truth.
Trump says he’s asking Justice Department to investigate Epstein’s ties to slew of high-profile figures | CNN Politics

@POTUS you can’t lie your way out of the pain and suffering your policies are causing. And this is just the beginning. The health care crisis is beginning now and the rest hits after the midterms. All to give billionaires more tax breaks. We will never forget.
Trump Finally Meets A Problem His Lies Cannot Overcome: Rising Grocery Prices — HuffPost
Trump keeps claiming that prices are ‘way down’ — but with food inflation running nearly twice the rate as it was in Biden’s last year, Americans are not fooled.
U.S. Rep. Brittany Pettersen@pettersen.house.govNov 9(source)
Millions of Americans’ healthcare is hanging in the balance because Republicans refuse to lower the costs. We have now reached the longest government shutdown in history & it's time to work together to reopen & address the health care crisis. It's literally life or death for far too many Coloradans.
Health care compromise appears far off as the government shutdown stalemate persists
The government shutdown has reopened debate on the future of health coverage under the Affordable Care Act.

Trump’s attacks on legal immigration are hurting Colorado’s economy. 60% of ski resorts rely on workers with J-1 visas, & many are now scrambling as they are unable to fill the positions needed. When we shut immigrants out, we hurt our local businesses, our tourism industry, and our economy.
Colorado ski industry worried about slowdown in J-1 visas that are ‘essential’ for resort area workforce 
Ski areas in Colorado and across the country are concerned about reported processing slowdowns for seasonal worker visas ahead of the 2025-26 ski season, according to the industry's leading trade group.

At 25, Josh was diagnosed with leukemia. After surviving cancer, the ACA became his only path to affordable care. Losing these subsidies could put his health at risk. Stories like Josh’s show why we must protect the ACA because every policy has a story and a name behind it.
U.S. Rep. Brittany Pettersen@pettersen.house.govOct 30(source)
Across Colorado, people are sharing how ACA tax credits make health care possible. After being laid off at 62, Mike faced losing coverage before retirement. Thanks to ACA tax credits, he stayed insured. These subsidies are a lifeline for thousands of Coloradans.
U.S. Rep. Brittany Pettersen@pettersen.house.govOct 28(source)
Trump already wrecked the Department of Education. Now he's illegally ending what little support is left for students with disabilities. I joined 100+ of my colleagues in demanding @POTUS reverse course. I can't imagine my kid not having the resources needed to thrive in school. It's just cruel.
