The Trump admin continues to block critical funding for Coloradans who need it most to recover from disaster. Playing politics with disaster aid is inhumane and beneath this country.

Today, we honor the decades of public service by former Colorado Senator Ben Nighthorse Campbell and remember his boundless generosity and kindness. He will be sorely missed by the Northern Cheyenne Tribe and all Coloradans.

This deal is something to celebrate. Workers are getting what they deserve: better pay, workforce protections, and benefits. Congrats to UFCW 7! www.denver7.com/news/front-r...

Trump is dragging everyone down with him during his illegal war with Iran, including you. The only thing he isn’t dragging down is prices. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/12/u...

Trump couldn’t care less about lowering your gas prices. He’s too busy picking fights with…the Pope.

President Trump relented on his threat to wipe out Iranian civilization less than two hours before his deadline, after terrorizing the world for two days. If your head is spinning, you’re not alone. Check out our latest Substack on why we need to end this illegal war—now.

AI is already transforming our everyday lives, but we’ve got to protect families and consumers every step of the way. Had the chance to talk with those on the frontlines of our AI future at Colorado School of Mines in Golden.

A welcome development. These workers deserve a fair deal that recognizes their hard work. Both sides should keep working to get this across the finish line. www.denverpost.com/2026/04/11/j...

In Denver, we met with community leaders at Montbello’s FreshLo Hub. As basic necessities become less affordable, the work they’re doing here to create affordable lives for Coloradans is remarkable. We’re fighting to make sure families across the country have that same access.

Scientists fired. Measles cases up. And we’re less prepared for the next pandemic. That’s what we heard in Adams County meeting with public health officials from around the Metro area. The Trump admin has done a number on America’s public health. It puts our families and communities at risk.

Across Colorado, the message we’re hearing from Coloradans is clear: they want stability. They want relief. The president couldn’t care less. He’s got no plan to get us out of Iran, while prices at home continue to rise.

What are they hiding? The victims and the American people deserve accountability, not deflection and distraction. Release the Epstein files. NOW.

Between his tariffs and his illegal war in Iran, Trump’s economy is making life unaffordable for too many Americans. We met with folks in Montrose who’ve been feeling their impacts for a year now:

Inflation at a two-year high, gas prices soaring, weekly grocery trips outpacing your paycheck. This illegal war with Iran is creating a cost of living crisis for working families.

Americans want lower costs, not forever conflicts. Trump’s reckless handling of his illegal war with Iran will only continue to cost you for months to come.

What we’re seeing in Delta is an entrepreneur’s dream. They’re making sure small businesses and young people have everything they need to succeed, setting the blueprint for communities across the country.

It’s been over a year since Trump’s illegal tariffs stole money from small businesses and your wallet. And now, his actions abroad are only making life more expensive for Coloradans. You deserve a full refund. www.denverpost.com/2026/04/07/c...

In Delta, we toured rural health facilities and sat down with local providers and officials to chat about our fight for health care. Every Coloradan deserves health care that is affordable, accessible, and universal.

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.

Americans want stability. Lower gas prices. Cheaper grocery bills. Not more chaos. Congress needs to be briefed immediately. We should vote again on a war powers resolution to prevent further escalation and end this illegal war. (3/3)

It is unclear whether this ceasefire delivers the President’s primary objectives, or rather just guarantees increased inflation, higher prices on pretty much everything, and continuing chaos. If your head is spinning, you’re not alone. (2/3)

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.

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.

Happy Easter to those celebrating in Colorado and around the globe. May the spirit of Easter bring joy and blessings.

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.

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...

For what? Thirty three days later the region is in turmoil, Iran’s regime remains in power, and the Strait of Hormuz is closed. Our President, seemingly deranged, has already declared victory. (3/3)

Instead, this administration is spending billions of taxpayer dollars on an illegal, un-winnable war that has killed thousands and will spike costs today and inflation tomorrow. (2/3)

President Trump declares victory while Americans watch the crisis he created spiral out of control. He promised to lower costs, end inflation, and start no new wars. (1/3)

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