We had an absolute ball hanging out at the Adams County Fair this weekend! It was great to talk with so many residents and listen to their ideas and concerns. One of the best moments, besides the people, was when Little Miss Hazel the Goat decided she wanted to jump up on our full table! 🐐🐴🐖💙

I’m a proud Democrat.

But we can’t lose 90% of U.S. counties and say things are going well.

We must do things differently—so we regain political power and deliver better results for working people.

Our youth mental conference had lots of great takeaways. Here's one--"From school counselors and coaches to parents and policymakers, adults often overestimate their effectiveness and underestimate just how much their presence, words and responses matter."

I joined my colleagues to demand that the Trump administration end the weaponization of immigration court hearings as an inhumane trap to arrest immigrants.

These tactics are a manipulation of the law and a cruel replacement for proper immigration enforcement. (1/2)

Man arrested for firebombing election equipment in southwestern Colorado clerk’s office The suspect had urged Archuleta County Commissioners to get rid of their Dominion Voting machines, citing discredited conspiracy theories.

“The fact that an election office in Colorado was firebombed with a Molotov cocktail is shocking and appalling,” said Griswold. “With that said, we have seen a huge uptick in threats since Trump pushed out his big lie.”

The GOP’s budget bill is BAD for Colorado. The proposed changes threaten revenue reductions of around…
➡️ $579M for FY25-26
➡️ $451M for FY26-27

Colorado cannot simply absorb these drastic cuts, which means funding for the programs and services Coloradans rely on will be cut.

I've been keeping the news of this bill from grandma just discharged to a long-term care facility from Anschutz.... she has relied upon Medicare and her husband's VA for many years. The good news is that the family is banding together... but we can only do so much. Thank you for listening, sir.

Thank you to Joe Neguse and everyone who came out to our Summit County town hall last week to make your voice heard and discuss the most important issues our state is facing at this moment.

Nobody captured love, loss, and the fight for belonging more powerfully than Andrea Gibson did. Their words gave voice to the unseen and hope to the unheard.

Colorado is better because of their words. Our hearts are with their loved ones and all mourning this profound loss.

This lawsuit #28. And it’s for our kids.

I enjoyed a summer afternoon filled with community, connection, and conversation at the Adams County Democrats Summer Social this past Sunday!

The Ukrainians continue to demonstrate remarkable courage & bravery in the face of Russian aggression.

They are fighting for freedom and democratic values that America shares. We cannot abandon them.

Slava Ukraini!

Great to join Pueblo Indivisible for a packed room conversation on our work to defend Colorado against the lawless and reckless actions of the Trump Administration.

Colorado lawmakers weigh need for special legislative session to address impacts of 'big, beautiful bill' Now that President Donald Trump’s ‘big, beautiful bill’ is law, focus shifts to states like Colorado, which will be tasked with finding ways to address spending cuts made to programs like Medicaid.

The GOP budget is devastating for Colorado. I talked to Denver 7 News about the impact of Medicaid and SNAP cuts, which will raise costs for everyone and harm the most vulnerable.

We had a great Meet and Greet in Alamosa yesterday. And two elk came to greet us.

Post from Leah Greenberg saying, "This bill is a declaration of war on American families. It's the largest transfer of wealth in history from poor and middle-class Americans to the ultrawealthy, a wishlist made by the most awful people in the world."

post from Isiah Martin saying, "The Repubs just told some sick kid with cancer to get lost to give some guy with three yachts a tax cut to buy a 5th jet Car crash? Sorry, the hospital nearby closed because TRUMP defunded them They ALL knew this, but passed his big rip off bill anyway" THE GREAT AMERICAN SCAM!

@bensilverstein.bsky.social Whoops, Trump admits the big ugly bill is political suicide... while whipping votes for the bill. He has no idea what's in this monstrosity, but wants it passed as quickly as possible.

post from Representative AOC saying "The fact that all these Republican lawmakers are running around trying (& often, failing) to get specific carve outs in their own bill so THEIR community isn’t subject should tell you all you need to know. If they think it’s so great, why don’t they want it as-is for themselves?"

There's still time to stop this dangerous bill.

Call your GOP representative and tell them to vote NO on Trump's Tax Scam: indivisible.org/reso...

Or plan a visit to your local congressional office: www.mobilize.us/indi...

Just got back in Washington to stand in the breach against Trump’s awful budget bill.

In all my time in Congress, it’s the worst bill I’ve ever seen. Here’s why👇

Thank you! CD8 was lost to Gabe Evans by under 2500 votes... and he does not show up for any of his constituents. These cuts affect those that need the help the most right here in our neighborhoods.

Tell Representatives Hurd, Crank, Evans and Boebert VOTE NO on Big Cruel Bill.

Today, I visited Clinica Health in Thornton to learn more about their great work providing healthcare in our community.

Medicaid cuts will devastate community health centers like Clinica. Please call Rep. Gabe Evans today at 202-225-5625 and tell him to vote NO. #CO08
