Ah, so Trump’s DHS removed *one of two bedrooms* on the luxury private jet and kept the bar, marble bathrooms, and manta ray skin table — for deportations. Okay. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/04/u...

We’re entering a new era of artificial intelligence. We need stronger tools to protect against consequences both profound and irreversible without totally squashing innovation.

This week, I introduced legislation to ensure oil and gas companies can’t abandon wells and leave Colorado taxpayers footing the cleanup bill.

Trump and DOGE set VA back by so much. We need more mental health providers everywhere, but especially at VA. The chaos of this administration is hurting everyone, including our veterans.

I’m proud that my resolution to designate this week as National Community Policing Week passed the Senate unanimously. Strong relationships between law enforcement and the people they serve are critical to building trust, strengthening communities and improving public safety.

I have a plan to raise student achievement as Governor, including evidence-based approaches to drive real results in reading and math, small group tutoring, and boosting attendance.

It was great joining the Association of Metropolitan School Districts Superintendents to talk about how we can help every student succeed and bring student achievement up and screentime in the classroom down.

This month is Hispanic Heritage Month. Colorado’s history cannot be told without the story of the Hispanic, Latino, and Chicano communities. We’re taking the time to understand how that history has shaped our wonderful state. Resources like History Colorado give us the opportunity to do so.

High prices and rising borrowing costs are squeezing family budgets, forcing more Americans to cut back on things like bowling and dining out. For many families, fun is becoming increasingly out of reach. This is Donald Trump’s economy.

This Head Start Awareness Month, I recommit to keep standing up against any action that threatens funding for Head Start and takes away critical care for Nevada's children.
- JR
That's why when I learned that the Trump Admin planned to send a budget proposal to Congress last year that gutted Head Start funding, I did everything in my power to oppose it and fight back.
- JR
Head Start is a critical program that gives children in our communities the early childhood education they need to succeed later on in life. I've visited Head Start classrooms in Nevada and seen firsthand how children benefit from this program. 🧵

Affordability isn't a scam, or a hoax, or made up like Trump says. It's a very real problem families across the country deal with every day, and it's being made worse by Trump's own policies.

6. Last, but not least, FAFO for clean energy! If the administration is caught denying permits systematically to clean energy sources, the roof falls in on them, with massive damages payments they would do well to avoid :-).
- SW
5. “Virtual power plants”? Yup, if you can aggregate lots of rooftop solar, for instance, you can bid that resource into your electric grid. Let a thousand flowers bloom.
- SW
4. First big bite at REAL data center accountability: data centers must pay for any network upgrades needed to serve their big demand, so ratepayers don’t bear the cost burden of added infrastructure.

3. At long last, a state block grant program to contribute revenue to coastal and ocean protection is in place. Next, let’s get it funded with a GOMESA-for-the-good-guys revenue stream. Lots of groups will benefit.
- SW
2. I hate “inter-agency process” where executive branch laziness, incompetence, and intramural quarrels hide. We put discipline and transparency into that mess, so agencies can’t hide their screwing around without accountability.

1. Developers have to file notice of stakeholder engagement up front, which will reduce dumb project starts like proposing turbines in a major harbor’s shipping lane. You’ll get busted fast if you haven’t done your stakeholder work, up front.

There are a bunch of specific things I like about our permitting bill, beyond the big important stuff — that it will lower electric costs and emissions, and lift wind, solar and battery power (BIG lift for battery), and add LOTS of good jobs.🧵

Good luck to all the runners in the Twin Cities Marathon today and the weather is good! Thank you to the volunteers who make this such an incredible Minnesota event.

This reflects the larger problem of Trump’s Costume Party Cabinet, unqualified oddballs and suck-ups who get to wear the costume of high office but can’t do the jobs, instead dress up and chant “WE ARE DOING GREAT!” Heckuva job, one might say.

In addition to infesting government with this creepy crew of flakes and grifters, real national security work is not getting done as they chase imaginary goblins. That’s the real cost of An Audience of One, and losers/grifters who take advantage.

President Trump has weaponized the federal government against Colorado. No American should have to fear political retaliation from their own President.

New Mexico farmers and ranchers — talk to your local NRCS office for resources available to you after this week's flooding. Outside of crop insurance, there are programs that can help producers with structural damage. Take photos now and again once water recedes.
