President Trump’s illegal tariffs robbed working families and small businesses of their hard earned money. Every American deserves a refund.

Caroline’s story is a reminder that ICE’s lawlessness is un-American. No one should have to live in fear of violence from their own government. youtu.be/lduMCwWQeMc?...

Coloradans love their public lands. These places are treasures. Yet, Trump and MAGA Republicans want to sell them off. No matter what they try to do, no matter who they try to nominate, we’ll always fight back to protect them.

Americans who work hard their entire lives deserve to retire with dignity. We already have bipartisan legislation ready to go that will help working people build a secure retirement.

We need to hold ICE accountable for its lawlessness. A new facility in Hudson will make a horrible situation worse. It should be out of the question. www.denverpost.com/2026/02/24/c...

When someone says repeatedly they support selling off our public lands, believe them the first time. Colorado’s message to Steve Pearce, Trump’s pick to lead the Bureau of Land Management: Our public lands are NEVER for sale.

Trump’s first year is full of broken promises. Working families can’t afford groceries, housing, or child care. People are being priced out and kicked off their health care. Americans deserve better.

Under Donald Trump, the ultra-wealthy have gotten all the breaks while working Americans are getting worked over. That is the state of our union. (3/3)

Trump is attacking Colorado’s clean drinking water and withholding child care funding, just for petty political revenge. And ICE is grabbing, beating, and even killing people across the country. (2/3)

Try as he might, Trump can’t erase what we see with our own eyes. Working families are struggling to afford groceries and health care. Small businesses are crushed under illegal tariffs. (1/3)

No matter what Trump says, ICE is killing people, separating families, and denying constitutional rights. We all see it with our own eyes.

Trump has had “concepts of a plan” to address health care for over a decade at this point. Yet, he kicked millions of Americans off their health insurance and DOUBLED costs for millions more. We need health care that is affordable, accessible, and universal.

President Trump’s tariffs robbed small businesses and working families of their hard earned money. He isn’t fooling anyone with his complaining. Where’s the refund???

Invitamos a Caroline Dias Goncalves al Estado de la Unión del Presidente Trump. Dreamers, cómo Caroline, crecieron aquí desde que eran niños. No deberían vivir con miedo de la violencia de ICE.

Caroline Dias Goncalves is our guest for tonight’s State of the Union. Dreamers like Caroline have grown up here since they were young kids. They should not have to live in fear of violence from ICE.

Renee Good and Alex Pretti should still be alive today. No matter how many lies we hear from Trump tonight, they were killed by ICE agents. We’re thinking about their families today and always.
- JH
Tonight, President Trump will tell us not to believe what we can see with our own eyes. His ICE agents are running lawless through our streets. Life is unaffordable and his tariffs stole from families and small businesses. We all can see it, no matter how they spin it.

It’s been 4 years since Putin launched a brutal invasion of Ukraine. We must always stand with Ukraine in their fight for democracy.

ICE is terrorizing our communities and scaring away business and visitors from many of our destination towns. It’s unacceptable and hurts our local economies.

Dr. Justina Ford’s courage changed Colorado forever. Denied her license because of her race, she still became the first Black woman to become a licensed doctor in Colorado, delivering over 7,000 babies. During Black History Month, we honor her life and legacy.

We’re more than one year into President Trump’s second term, and Americans are getting completely ripped off. Costs are rising while our nation’s health, science, and education are suffering — because of decisions made by the President and his cabinet.

Trump and MAGA Republicans are still trying every way they know how to sell off our public lands to the highest bidder. Our public lands are NEVER for sale!

Met with patients and health care professionals in Colorado Springs to talk about how Republicans and Trump’s reckless cuts to Medicaid and the ACA are making health care less affordable and accessible.

ICE is ripping families apart and ruining children’s lives. What violent crime did a nine-year-old commit to be detained for FOUR MONTHS?!? ICE is out of control and needs a top-to-bottom overhaul.

Trump didn’t get his way. His reckless tariffs were always illegal and punished working families and small businesses just trying to make ends meet. The law is clear: only Congress can set tariffs.

The Trump administration is weaponizing child care funding to punish families.

People are terrified and this administration remains unaccountable. We will NOT let up until there is a full independent investigation and real accountability for those involved. (2/2)

ICE has failed to provide to us the information on the reports of their agents leaving “death cards” in detainee’s vehicles in Eagle County. When we requested a meeting this week, ICE kicked the can down the road. We need immediate transparency, not deflections. (1/2) bsky.app/profile/hick...

An update: these two young women who were detained by ICE for MONTHS were finally released yesterday. They should have never been in there to begin with.

We knew President Trump’s tariffs were clearly illegal. That’s why we signed an amicus brief giving the Supreme Court more information and urging them to reject his use of tariffs.

The Trump administration should immediately pay back every single Colorado small business that suffered from their reckless tariffs. If they don’t, we need to pass our bill to make them do exactly that. (2/2)

President Trump’s tariffs were blatantly illegal from the start and made life unaffordable for working families and small businesses. The Supreme Court confirmed today that tariffs are taxes and only Congress can set them. (1/2)

Had a chance to sit down with veterans down in Pueblo. Trump’s cuts to health care and VA staff are slashing veterans' services. We should honor our promise to folks who served our country.

Windy day down in Pueblo County visiting the construction site of the Arkansas Valley Conduit. Trump took away funding for thousands of rural Coloradans to get safe, reliable drinking water. We won’t stop fighting to get it completed.

Down in Teller County today, we heard about how Trump’s economy is making life harder for Americans in rural communities. We should be supporting our local businesses and working families, not crushing them.

Trump’s new prescription drug plan costs thousands more than generics. His “plan” will only leave your wallets and prescriptions empty. We already know Big Pharma is ripping Americans off. But working families need health care that is affordable, accessible, and universal.

Trump told the American people that his tariffs would bring back American manufacturing jobs. In reality, they’re doing the exact opposite. www.wsj.com/economy/u-s-...

ICE is targeting people based on the language they speak or the color of their skin. They’re separating families and detaining people without any due process. ICE needs to be overhauled NOW. www.propublica.org/article/immi...
