Amie Baca-Oehlert

I'm so proud to have earned the support of Scott Moss -- one of our state's bravest fighters for justice, who blew the whistle on both the Trump administration's attempts to target Coloradans and our own Governor's refusal to stand up to them.

Graphic of a statement that reads: Today’s decision by the Supreme Court to allow indiscriminate stops by ICE patrols in California is a grave misstep, undermining the fundamental liberties that define us as a nation. We cannot, and must not, accept a reality where our immigrant neighbors, friends, and family are subject to arbitrary seizure based on appearance, language, or socioeconomic status. It institutes a permanent environment of fear and a “show me your paper” regime that targets people based on the color of their skin. This ruling chips away at the very foundations of due process and equal protection under the law. To allow such a chilling precedent to stand is a betrayal of our constitutional promise. We cannot stand for this and we must resist the erosion of these essential freedoms and stand united against any action that threatens the dignity and rights of all individuals.

Today’s ruling by the Supreme Court is frightening and reminder of how much this administration is threatening and harmful to all of us. We must resist and fight back - and flipping Colorado 08 is part of that resistance!

Last night, I was glad to be back at UNC, where I got my Master's in school counseling, sharing my vision of hope for the future with Weld County Dems at their annual Roosevelt dinner. I was glad to connect with so many Northern CO Democrats who are fired up & ready to give Gabe Evans a pink slip!

Israel's growing frustration over the war in Gaza explodes in nationwide protests Israeli police blasted crowds with water cannons and made dozens of arrests on Sunday as thousands of protesters demanding a deal to free hostages in Gaza.

Keep dreaming big, my friends. And never let anyone steal your hope. Together, we can and WILL build the America we all deserve.

Families of hostages, fallen IDF soldiers call for strike against Gaza occupation plan ***

In Israel as in America, the labor movement has a critical role to play in standing up against the awful overreaches of those in power.

PM Netanyahu's latest aggressions are inexcusable. I stand with the October 7th Council and many family members of the October 7th hostages, who are calling for a general strike in response, and I hope the whole of the Israeli labor movement joins in.

Thank you @degette.house.gov for standing up on this. Jeanette Vizguerra is my union sister, and I agree that she should be released and granted permanent legal status.

I will continue showing up for *every* community in this district not just while I'm campaigning, but after I'm in office, too, because that's what accessibility & engagement from our leaders is supposed to look like.

Yesterday, I was surprised & proud to be the only CD8 candidate who showed up to participate in the parade for Beef 'n Bean Day, which is one of the biggest community celebrations all year in #Milliiken. It was a lot of fun & I met many great people who are ready to turn this seat blue! #copolitics

This week, I participated in a CD8 candidate forum, and met over a hundred community members who had tons of interesting questions for us as candidates. It was so exciting to share my vision of hope and what I’ll do to fight for the #Colorado we all deserve.

Had a great time connecting with community members at the Adams County Fair this weekend -- and hanging out with a couple of goats, too!

#Colorado #adamscountyfair #copolitics #coloradolife

Union busting is disgusting.

We need people in #Congress who don’t just give lip service to standing with #workers & unions, but who are ready and willing to fight to restore basic workplace rights & to enact policy to grow the power of #unions. I’m ready to help lead that fight in Congress. #1u

The beautiful river on a beautiful day.

I spent the weekend in beautiful #Lyons @ #Rockygrass connecting w/ people excited to send a #teacher & #union leader to #Congress. The crisp mountain air, the peaceful flow of the river, & people connecting through music are all great reminders of what’s possible when we lead w/ unity & hope. ❤️🪕🏕️✊🏽

All of us in Adams, Weld, and Berthoud deserve better than a representative who is willing to lie even about his own family just to serve himself. #congress

Screenshot of headline that reads US Rep Gabe Evans misrepresented family's immigration history from Colorado Newsline

I’ve never lied about my family history- I’m proud of who & where I come from. How shameful for Evans to share mistruths about his background, w/ his own family members having to call it out, all while fanning the flames of harmful rhetoric that is causing fear & harm in our communities. #copolitics

Working Families Party endorses congressional candidates against Republicans who voted to cut healthcare. U.S. House, CA-22. Randy Villegas. U.S. House, CO-8. Amie Baca-Oehlert.

We promised to support challengers to Republicans who voted for Trump’s big deadly bill.

Well, you can count on us to follow through 🧵

Thank you, Judy & Manny Solano, for hosting a lovely meet and greet brunch yesterday. I had a ton of great conversations with Adams County neighbors who are fired up and ready to send a teacher to Congress!

As someone who has been working since I was 14 years old & who has spent my entire adult life working to better the lives of working people, I’m honored to be the first challenger to a GOP Congressmember in the U.S. to be endorsed by @workingfamilies.org for the 2026 election.

This does not make America safer or the world better - it does the opposite. As @afsaorg.bsky.social put it, "[T]hese layoffs are untethered from merit or mission... [P]rofessional, non-partisan diplomacy is not expendable. It is essential."

I'm so honored to be endorsed by two of the local leaders I admire most: Adams Co Comm. Emma Pinter & Hon. Joe Salazar. I look forward to working with them both to beat back the abuses of the Trump administration & to build the future we need to see in Adams, Weld & Berthoud. #copolitics

We need more people in Congress who are willing to fight back unapologetically against those who seek to abuse and erode our freedoms, and I'm running to be one of them.

I will never be afraid to stand up, speak out and do whatever it takes to protect our fundamental freedoms, including the right of free speech and the right of working people to organize and demand improvements in their workplaces.
