Phil Weiser

How it started. How it is going.
Great to launch our Fight for Colorado Tour in Pueblo. Here’s what coming up: philforcolorado.com/our-next-cha...

Phil Weiser on Medicaid Cuts, Rural Hospitals, and His Run for Governor Colorado’s Attorney General — and 2026 gubernatorial candidate — talks rural health care, immigration, gun laws, political violence, water rights, and the future of public radio.

As Governor, my focus will be on our next generation, and keeping them in Colorado: I want young people to know they’ll be supported, have good-paying jobs, and be able to afford a place to live. And I will always show up for rural Colorado. www.ksjd.org/podcast/ksjd...

Yesterday, a judge appointed by President Trump ruled that the military cannot be used for domestic law enforcement and called his case “untethered to the facts.” We must all defend our republic and the #RuleOfLaw. The opinion is worth reading: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

I’ve Written About Loads of Scams. This One Almost Got Me.

This is a harrowing example of how good scammers can be at scaring consumers. And it offers the most important advice out there: “Take that breath, take a beat. Think about what’s going on and what this call is about.”

This opinion is a tour de force and a defense of our Constitution and the Rule of Law. It quoted James Madison, cautioning against a standing military force being used as “instrument of tyranny.” We all must continue to stand up against this administration’s dangerous lawlessness.

In a busy week, we brought a case against the Trump Administration for illegally withholding victim services funding; prevailed in a different case for victims; and promised action on illegal withholding clean energy funding. Here's an article keeping track. coloradosun.com/2025/06/12/c...

A meaningful endorsement for our campaign from Marlene Price at the Colorado Black Women for Political Action. She nailed it. Please watch and spread the word.

Great to join Simone Sanders and so many Colorado leaders at the Colorado Black Women for Political Action’s 47th Annual Luncheon. A timely call to action to find light through the darkness.

Proud to support Lisa Weil and Great Education Colorado at their 14th annual celebration and to celebrate Rosenberg’s Day with my friend Josh Pollack.

In September, we had another great month on the trail and serving the people of Colorado. Here are some highlights--including over 100 iced teas. And the highlight next week is our Fight for Colorado Tour. Details are here-- philforcolorado.com/our-next-cha...

Nine months ago, we launched our campaign--and promised that, after an engaged set of conversations, we would hit the road to share what we have learned. That starts this Sunday-with stops from Pueblo to Greeley to Grand Junction to Durango. Come join us. philforcolorado.com/our-next-cha...

Proud to join the Rose Andom Center for #DomesticViolence Awareness Month. Together, we cannot keep quiet, must speak up for survivors, and do all we can to save lives.

We are preparing for a new chapter--and we want to tell you about it. Join us on Saturday, October 11th at 4:00 pm in downtown Denver for a special Team Phil community celebration and opportunity to hear my vision for Colorado. Please spread the word.

Essay | What Birthright Citizenship Gave to Me I was the first person in my family to be born in the U.S. The Constitution leaves no doubt: that makes me a full American citizen.

On birthright citizenship, Professor Amar nails it--"For the framers of the 14th Amendment, the key question to be asked in any given case was clean and simple: On the day a person is born, when they look up and first open their eyes, is an American flag flying overhead?" www.wsj.com/arts-culture...

Happy #PublicLandsDay! As your AG and your next Governor, I will always fight for and protect our public lands and keep them public.

Here's what being an ally of the LGBTQ+ community means to me--yesterday, I challenged the Trump administration's illegal effort to prevent Colorado from providing inclusive sex education and I joined the Center on Colfax's Afterglow event to support its important work. www.cpr.org/2025/09/26/c...

I stand with Oregon AG @danrayfield.bsky.social. Now is a time for serious governance, not "unhinged political games that put community safety at risk." We must defend the principle that states handle law enforcement, and unnecessary federal military deployment is unacceptable.

Former FBI Director James Comey indicted following pressure from Trump The president recently suggested the attorney general should prosecute Comey and other prominent critics. Comey was charged with making a false statement and obstruction.

In the threats to the Rule of Law category, this is dangerous---for the first time in 50 years, "Trump has undone norms and guidelines established after the Watergate scandal to prevent presidents from ordering the [DOJ] to prosecute their political rivals." www.nbcnews.com/politics/jus...

Please join former Governor Roy Romer and former Mayor Federico Pena on October 6th at 8.30 am in Denver for a fireside chat on their work in the 1980s and early 1990s that set Denver and Colorado up for an era of growth and dynamism--and lessons for today. RSVP:

Out of Many, We are One | Phil Weiser for Colorado At this moment, a central promise of America — exemplified by our national motto of e pluribus unum (“out of many, we are one”) — is being put to the test. I am committed to defending this promise.  M...

The American national motto is e pluribus unum--out of many, we are one. As a first generation American, it's personal to me to fight for a sensible and fair immigration system that operates under the rule of law. I will remain steadfast in this commitment. philforcolorado.com/out-of-many-...

U.S. Attorney Investigating Two Trump Foes Departs Amid Pressure From President

Federal prosecutor Erik Siebert refused to prosecute NY AG Tish James because there was no evidence to support the case--and was removed for his commitment to the #RuleOfLaw. We need such courage to hold the republic. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/19/u...

I am committed to fighting for our core constitutional principles. When you’re dealing with a lawless bully, which is how I characterize this administration, there’s no making nice. I stand my ground and fight for the principles we believe in. www.durangoherald.com/articles/col...

Colorado AG sues Live Nation and Ticketmaster for 'misleading consumers' DENVER, Colo. (KRDO) -- Colorado's Attorney General (AG) Phil Weiser announced that Colorado and six other states are suing Live Nation and Ticketmaster

Are you as frustrated as I am when companies trick you and add on hidden fees? I just took action against Ticketmaster for its "bait and switch" scheme of adding hidden fees of up to 44% of the advertised ticket price. I will always fight for consumers. krdo.com/news/2025/09...
