From Red Rocks to The Mish, Colorado’s music venues bring culture, visitors, and economic opportunity to communities across our state.   Our American Music Tourism Act, just signed into law, will help bring even more visitors to Colorado venues!

Trump’s sweetheart deal with Putin is as backwards and corrupt as it gets. He continues to sell our country out and does nothing that will make your life affordable.

We’ve been all around Colorado hearing how MAGA’s Big Ugly Betrayal Act has made healthcare inaccessible for people.  We need a healthcare system that’s affordable, universal, and actually WORKS for working families.

We’re glad to hear that the SBA has approved disaster relief for Colorado communities impacted by the Aspen Acres Fire. These loans are a roof, a payroll, a new start. We’ll continue pushing for more assistance for Colorado communities that need it.

Our hearts are with the families of the children and educators killed yesterday at an Oregon elementary school. No parent should fear for their kid's life at school. No kid should fear they'll die at school. Colorado knows this grief too well, and we know it doesn't have to be (cont in image...)

While President Trump is focused on ballrooms, bombs, and billionaires, here’s what we’re doing to make life more affordable for Coloradans:

American families can’t afford Trump’s economy. It’s never ending, higher prices on everything from gas to groceries to health care.  End the war. End the tariffs. End the corruption. Get back to lowering costs for working people. Quoting The New York Times

Every day Trump’s illegal war in Iran drags on: billions more of your tax dollars burned, servicemembers in harm’s way, and prices rising on everything from diesel to groceries. This war needs to end. Full stop.

Ukrainians have shown extraordinary courage in the face of Russian aggression.  Trump’s response? A diesel deal with Putin and threatening the temporary protected status of 100,000 Ukrainians we welcomed to safety here in the United States. Overwhelming bipartisan majorities (cont in image...)

Unprecedented corruption. As working families are struggling to pay for groceries and gas, Trump is focused on enriching himself to the tune of BILLIONS of dollars and selling out our country.

Behind every brave servicemember is a family and support system. It was an honor to meet with Blue Star Families in Colorado Springs and thank them in person for everything they carry.

Today on Indigenous Peoples’ Day, we honor the cultures, histories, and resilience of Native communities — including the two Tribal nations in Colorado. We recommit to honoring every promise the federal government owes and to continue building a relationship worthy of that trust.

This is the reality of skyrocketing diesel prices caused by Trump’s war with Iran:

More than 7 months into Trump’s illegal war with Iran… Diesel up more than 70%. Gas up more than 50%.  Grocery prices climbing steadily with no end in sight.  It’s time to bring our troops home and bring down costs.

Guardrails on AI can’t wait. We need to get going now and protect communities from the risks.

If there’s one thing Coloradans don’t need right now, it’s another detention facility run by a reckless agency like ICE. We’ve seen how they operate, and this lawlessness shouldn’t have a home in Colorado.  https://t.co/f3P7Lm7lYj

No government agency should fund political ads. Full stop.  The president and his cronies at DHS are trampling the Constitution and ignoring the law once again.  https://t.co/Fga97XTKNI

Republican’s Ratepayer Protection Act has no teeth. It won’t actually protect families like yours from paying more on your energy bills.

$43.6 billion for Trump’s illegal war in Iran doesn’t take into account the human cost.  19 service members lost.  Over 800 injured.  Thousands still away from families with no end in sight.  END THE WAR NOW!

We joined @SquawkCNBC this morning to push for the White House and AI leaders to work with Congress on responsible AI guardrails:

Ahead of today’s White House meeting with AI leaders we’re pressing Trump to support guardrails for AI:  → Independent testing of our most powerful AI models → Real accountability when AI companies cause harm → Mandatory reporting of serious AI incidents

College athletes have won new rights and a bigger voice, and they deserve both. But the rules changed fast, and the sports that don’t make money were left wondering whether they had a future. The Protect College Sports Act gives Olympic and non-revenue sports the stability to Quoting On3

This is why we need our Patients Deserve Price Tags Act. People shouldn’t risk going broke just to stay healthy.

The Constitution is clear. Congress holds the power over how taxpayer dollars are spent, not one person in the Oval Office.  Over and over again, this admin chooses to ignore the law.  https://t.co/KQehPFsBWO

Paid for by the U.S. Government = Paid for by YOU.  This is propaganda. This is illegal. This is un-American. Quoting The Washington Post

Get a load of the BS coming out of this admin. Inflation down? Beef prices down? Yeah right. The American people will believe it when they can actually see it.

We’ve voted over a dozen times to end the war in Iran and bring the focus back to Americans here at home.  Every time, MAGA Republicans failed to meet the moment. It’s way past time for Congress to step up.

This week is Gold Star Family Remembrance Week. Let’s come together to honor the ongoing courage and sacrifice of these families who have given so much to our country.

We can lower energy prices and protect our climate at the same time.  Our climate bill is doing just that but Trump and MAGA Republicans have fought it at every turn, canceling grants, killing jobs, and hurting our climate.  Let’s get real about an all-of-the-above approach to energy.

Trump has a laundry list of broken promises. Here are just a few for you:

Teddy Roosevelt said it best: it’s vandalism to destroy what’s beautiful in nature.  No matter how many times MAGA tries to degrade, attack, and sell off our public lands, we won’t let them.

Diesel prices at record highs→Cost of doing business rises→Cost of living rises with it.  It’s not complicated but it’s complicating life for too many Coloradans. End the war. Bring costs down. https://t.co/u7WR4C3f7H

$43.6 billion spent on Trump’s illegal war thousands of miles away. BILLIONS more spent on increased gas, groceries, and housing costs by working families here in America.  Your money down the drain with nothing to show for it.

Secretary Rubio, DOGE, and all the other leaders who enabled the gutting of USAID will be remembered for one of the most shameful decisions in American history. Until Trump, USAID was a bipartisan force for good that saved over 90 million lives, including 30 million children (cont in image...)

It’s peak harvesting season, and record-high diesel prices and record-low moisture are having drastic impacts on our farmers.  Over $6/gal for diesel makes the business of running a farm unsustainable and drives up the costs for everything else. End the war so our farmers can (cont in image...)

Trump’s economy isn’t working for families across Colorado.  It’s time to focus on bringing down costs because Coloradans can’t afford the basics right now.

High energy prices are only made worse when the admin refuses to end the war in Iran or fund clean energy projects that bring down your utility bill.
