Thank you to the firefighters and local officials who bravely battled wildfires near Boulder and Berthoud this morning to keep Coloradans safe.

This idea from the Trump administration is flying under the radar. It shouldn’t. Shutting down customs at major U.S. airports would hurt millions of American businesses, workers, and families, and totally upend international travel. Yet another self-inflicted wound.

President Trump relented in his threat to wipe out Iranian civilization less than two hours before his deadline, after terrorizing the world for 48 hours. (1/3)

This morning, President Trump threatened to completely wipe out Iran. An entire country of 93 million. That’s a war crime. Plain and simple. This war needs to end. NOW.

Another day, another unhinged press conference from President Trump. I ran a brewpub and dealt with plenty of belligerent bullies. When someone got out of line? We cut them off. We showed them the door. So why are Republicans still serving this guy?

Artemis is on its way around the Moon today! Wishing the crew the best of luck and can’t wait for the science and data (and the amazing views!) that will help inform future missions.

President Trump spent his Easter Sunday issuing dangerous, reckless threats in his illegal war with Iran. This isn’t a game. He’s putting our service members and innocent civilians at risk. He is not making sense. He needs to stop.

Glad to see talks picking back up. These workers deserve to share in JBS’ success. Both sides should keep at it and get a fair deal done.

Take it from the only peer-reviewed scientist in the U.S. Senate: science plays a critical part in nearly every aspect of our lives. The Trump administration’s attacks on science are an attack on all of us.

What you’re paying at the gas pump is only going to climb higher and higher as Trump leads us deeper into his illegal war without an exit plan.

Closing over 400 hospitals because of Trump’s Big, Ugly Betrayal Act means life or death for families across the country. We should be making health care easier to access, not harder.

This budget isn’t worth the paper it’s printed on. Congress still controls the purse. Coloradans want affordable and accessible health care, our public lands protected, and American leadership in science and innovation. We won’t stop fighting for Colorado priorities.

Pam Bondi weaponized the Department of Justice against Trump’s imagined enemies and butchered the release of the Epstein files. Good riddance. The DOJ needs to operate with full independence and integrity, serving only the rule of law, not the rule of Trump.

We could take care of America’s children, seniors, and the most vulnerable. Trump couldn't care less.

Tina Peters tried to corrupt the 2020 election, one of the fairest and most secure in our history. She was prosecuted by a Republican DA and convicted by a jury of her peers. Regardless of her sentence, she is guilty as sin. www.denverpost.com/2026/04/02/t...

Birthright citizenship is part of our Constitution, and the president knows that. Overturning it would undermine our foundational values as a nation.

Conversion therapy is cruel and inhumane, plain and simple. This SCOTUS decision is dangerous for LGBTQ+ Americans. Our LGBTQ+ community deserves safety, acceptance, and love. We won’t ever let up in our fight for a better nation.

How does a $400 MILLION White House ballroom help Americans afford groceries, health care, or gas? Hint: It doesn’t.

The first time they hiked your health care costs, it was to fund tax cuts for the ultra-wealthy. This time, it’s to bankroll a $200B war in Iran. Priorities matter. This is wrong.

We live in the wealthiest country in the world. There’s no reason 2 in 5 adults should be burdened with medical debt. Every American deserves health care that is affordable, accessible, and universal.

Trump's illegal war with Iran is sending mixed signals to our allies and sending prices through the roof for working Americans here at home.

Climate change is causing a historically warm winter and worsening drought in the West. The next fire season could be catastrophic. Trump’s sudden change to wildland firefighting causes uncertainty, and that is the last thing we need when it comes to disasters like this.

REMINDER: the SAVE America Act is still never going to pass. It is cut-and-dried voter suppression that makes it harder for Americans to vote.

The Republicans accepted what we offered weeks ago: pay TSA workers without a single dime for ICE. But the fight does not stop here. ICE is still out of control: agents hiding behind masks, ignoring warrants, and answering to no one. We won’t give up until this agency is totally overhauled.

Isn’t Trump supposed to be some legendary dealmaker? He’s now saying that he doesn’t want to pay TSA workers until MAGA Republicans somehow pass an impossible bill to make it harder for millions of Americans to vote. How does that make sense?

ICE isn’t the president's personal enforcement arm. Over the weekend, we voted to pay TSA workers for the TENTH time. Republicans blocked it again. End the chaos.

The U.S. should be a global leader in clean energy. Instead, this reckless decision puts us behind and will raise energy costs for working families at a time when they’re already sky-high.
