Once again, Trump is lashing out at the free press – showing contempt for the Constitution, an utter disregard for facts, and a willingness to deceive the American people when the truth doesn’t serve his own fragile ego.

Trump is deporting our Afghan allies' family members, even though they were approved by a immigration judge to live in the U.S. He's sending them to places where they may be at risk of persecution or torture, without due process. That's not just unlawful, it’s cruel. www.nytimes.com/2026/08/29/u...

Donald Trump canceled a program that let you file your taxes directly with the IRS for free. Why? I have a theory.

Despite President Trump’s efforts to sow doubt about mail-in voting, Colorado voters should rest assured that their mail-in ballots will arrive in time to cast their votes in the midterm elections. Colorado will not let the President interfere in our gold-standard election system.

We’ve dawdled long enough. Put seizures on a steady schedule to address legal fears early (not likely a war criminal wins, but Belgian bankers are anxious). US should do its $5 billion too. www.ft.com/content/6d27...

Two years after Trump promised to deliver “free IVF” if he was elected, he has yet to deliver. I have a bill that could get it done immediately. Let’s pass my Right to IVF Act.

As students return to school this fall, the Dept. Of Education’s abrupt and unlawful cuts to funds approved by a bipartisan Congress have stretched mental health staff and resources thin. They must disburse these funds immediately to ensure students have access to essential health services.

Mifepristone is safe and effective—and has been widely used for over 30 years. In fact, it’s safer than viagra. But Trump officials want to rip away access to medication abortion in ALL 50 states. It was never about states’ rights—it was ALWAYS about controlling women.

Childcare is a form of economic freedom for hardworking families across Colorado. The folks down at Durango’s Powerhouse understand that fully. Working hard to address the shortage of childcare spots requires consistent funding. That’s what we’re fighting for.

Bars and restaurants operate on tight margins, and the last thing they need is to buy subscription after subscription to show our teams play. My bill will cut the streaming costs for these small businesses and make sure we can watch the teams we love.

Colorado is in the middle of an extreme drought. The impacts are real but so is our grit. The outdoor rec industry in Colorado is a lifeline for so many and a global phenomenon. That’s not possible without Coloradans who pull up their sleeves when the going gets tough.

Farmers are struggling to get basic services from an administration that promised to help them. In NM, that includes two farmers who saw their low-interest USDA loan put on hold, forcing them to go with a private lender, or risk losing the land, and taking on over $200K in interest.

If you know someone under 30, they need to hear this: the future of Social Security is on the line. Democrats have ideas to save Social Security so future generations can retire with something to show for it. Meanwhile, top Republicans think Social Security is a “Ponzi Scheme.”

Thinking of John McCain today on what would’ve been his 90th birthday. As a Senator, John never stopped fighting for what he believed was right for Arizona, even when it meant standing alone. He dedicated his life to our country, and his legacy of service will never be forgotten.

Did you know Trump wants to cut public health work at the CDC even MORE? His budget would make bigger cuts to programs that help stop global outbreaks at a time when we need them most.
