Proudly serving the people of Colorado in the U.S. Senate.
Raising construction prices with these reckless tariff-taxes is a surefire way to keep families from the American dream.

Forcing local radio stations to close and punishing our rural communities by removing their access to weather, news, and emergency alerts does nothing to make government more efficient.
Trump’s cuts to public broadcasting leave 52 local Colorado stations staring at massive budget holes buff.ly/aUO0Ymg
The Republicans’ Big Beautiful Bill throws our rural communities and working families under the bus – all to pay for trillion-dollar tax cuts for the ultra-wealthy.
This reckless trade war has always meant that working families and small businesses would see higher prices. What happened to lowering costs on day one?
Remember, Trump and Republicans swore up and down they weren’t going to cut Medicaid and health care. Then they did it anyway.
As we mark thirteen years since the Aurora movie theater shooting, we remember the victims of this horrific attack. We won’t ever stop fighting for stronger gun laws to keep our communities safe and combat the epidemic of gun violence.
Tariff-taxes are driving up prices across the board for working families and small businesses.

When I was Mayor, we made Denver’s government more efficient. When I was Governor, we balanced the state budget – and took Colorado from 40th in job creation to the best economy in the nation. We don’t need to take a sledgehammer to basic services to make government more…
Small businesses are cutting back operations, citing uncertainty. American families are finding that their household budgets are getting tighter and tighter. These tariff-taxes are turning out to be a horrible idea (who knew!).

The devastating cuts to health care in the Republicans’ Big Ugly Bill will raise costs for families and kick kids off of health insurance.
Thank you to the bravery of the firefighting crews who are battling the wildfires along the Western Slope.
Fire crews working across western Colorado made more progress containing and slowing the growth of several wildfires Thursday. trib.al/pHFISiL
These reckless tariff-taxes are a failure. All they’re doing is increasing costs for American families and ceding our leadership to China.
Five years after his passing, we remember John Lewis and his transformational legacy. His vision for a better America inspires all of us as we continue the fight for a more just society.

Earlier this month, Republicans ripped health care away from 17 million Americans and hiked the price of groceries and electricity on working families. Today, they’re pulling the plug on rural radio stations and public TV programming Coloradans count on. This isn’t ‘government…
We’re fighting this reckless rescissions package in any way we can. We’re proposing amendments and when it comes to the floor for a final vote, I’ll be voting NO.
Farmers use local radio to track commodity pricing. Our rural communities rely on it for emergency alerts for weather and natural disasters. Science programming inspires the next generation of scientists. Cuts to public broadcasting would hurt America.
