All across Colorado, we’ve fought alongside communities for federal funding to help invest in projects that help Coloradans!

Americans just can’t catch a break under Trump. They feel it every time they go to the pump, with gas prices again at over $4/gallon on average nationwide because of his illegal war in Iran. End the war and bring down costs here at home NOW. apnews.com/article/gas-...

We must pass gun safety legislation to make our communities safer from senseless acts of gun violence that continue to terrorize our country. (2/2)

Today marks 14 years since the horrific Aurora theater shooting. Our thoughts are with the victims, their loved ones, and the entire community. This comes on the heels of another mass shooting in Denver last night. (1/2)

ICE is out of control. Another detention facility in Colorado will make a horrible situation even worse.

American elections are free, fair, and safe. It’s part of what makes our country great. We won’t let Trump tell us otherwise and paint a picture of reality that just doesn’t exist. www.pbs.org/newshour/pol...

Trump’s illegal war in Iran is costing Americans here at home.

ICE and their contractors are completely out of control. Everyone has the right to protest peacefully without fear of violence. We’re keeping the victim of this shooting in our thoughts. We will keep fighting to end this lawlessness and instill accountability. www.denverpost.com/2026/07/16/s...

Wildfires are burning everywhere, from Canada to Colorado. This is a climate emergency. It shouldn’t take smoke covering D.C. to force Congress to take action. We need all hands on deck NOW.

Disaster relief should never be political. These are communities that are hurting and have been through the worst times of their lives. It’s so far below our shared American values and is unacceptable.

Remember when Trump said his illegal war with Iran would be over in just a few weeks? Well, it’s been 139 days and he still has no plan to get us out of it and bring down costs for you at home.

Our immigration system is broken. Firing immigration judges who follow the law and refuse to bend to Donald Trump isn’t how we make the system work better. It’s un-American. www.cpr.org/2026/07/14/i...

Decisions about sacred lands must be made with Tribes, not imposed on them. We should honor our trust responsibilities, respect tribal voices, and protect sites that mean so much to so many. (2/2)

The Inter-Tribal Commission represents a vital mechanism for Tribes to have their voices heard and needs met regarding monument management. This decision by Trump is inexcusable. (1/2) nativenewsonline.net/sovereignty/...

Trump is going to lie again tonight. He’ll lie about past elections as a way to justify corrupting our future elections. The same elections that delivered him and Republicans total control of our government. (1/2)

Our visit to the Aspen Acres burn site was just heartbreaking. Homes destroyed and lives turned upside down. Our eternal gratitude goes out to our first responders and emergency teams who are putting everything on the line to protect our neighbors and communities.

Trump’s economy and his illegal war with Iran are ballooning gas prices for Colorado families. A president who claims to put Americans first is doing the exact opposite.

The victims of Jeffrey Epstein deserve accountability and justice. Release the Epstein files and investigate all involved NOW.

At least 4 people are dead this year because of ICE. Trump wants these reckless traffic stops to continue. Not one more penny for ICE and its lawlessness.

Our communities need all the resources they can get to combat this devastating wildfire season. We saw this firsthand visiting Beulah. Trump’s cuts to the Forest Service and his politicization of FEMA funding puts the safety of Americans last.

“We know we can’t prevent every wildfire. But to meet this new reality, local, state and federal governments as well as citizens, must work together.” Read more from my op-ed in the Colorado Sun: coloradosun.com/2026/07/14/o...

This is a blatant attack on public lands everywhere. Our public lands are part of our shared heritage. Removing protections and paving the way for mining and drilling on beloved landscapes goes against the values of the West.

Trump is continuing his deadly illegal war in Iran, spending billions of taxpayer funds and sending costs skyrocketing for Americans. His so-called “deal” has fallen apart, and it’s clear he has ZERO plan to get us out. End this war. NOW. www.wsj.com/world/middle...

This photo says what words can't. We saw firsthand the damage the Aspen Acres wildfire has had on Coloradans. Homes gone. Lives upended. Communities forever changed. We're fighting to make sure Colorado gets every resource and dollar it needs to rebuild and recover from these horrific disasters.

ICE is terrorizing our communities, separating families, and killing innocent people. A new facility in Hudson will make a horrible situation even worse. We’re fighting against this detention center and for basic answers from this lawless agency. www.denverpost.com/2026/07/13/c...

Despite President Trump’s efforts, our bipartisan ROAD to Housing Act just became law! Our bill will help housing be more affordable for Americans AND: → Stop Wall Street from buying up homes → Expand housing services for veterans → BUILD MORE HOMES!

As we enter what is already a devastating wildfire season, firefighters and emergency management staff are working around the clock to keep Coloradans as safe as possible. Visit the website here to learn more about fires currently burning and resources available to you:

The cost of chaos isn’t paid in Washington. It’s paid by Americans in the grocery store, at the gas pump, and anywhere you choose to spend your money. Trump needs to end his illegal war. Stop the illegal tariffs. And put lowering costs for working families at the top of the agenda.
- JH
Disaster relief should never be political. The President is leaving Americans to pick up the pieces after disasters based on petty political grievances. The politicization of disaster aid is disgraceful and shameful.

Another photo-op for an administration that's only currency is lies. Americans are feeling the pain of soaring gas prices because of Trump’s illegal war with Iran.
