The Federal Reserve risks becoming more responsive to President Trump than to the American people, and to the needs of the American economy.

I voted NO on Kevin Warsh’s nomination for Chair of the Federal Reserve. I have no confidence that he will provide the independence this role requires.

His agencies are burying reports showing vaccines are safe and effective — including data that COVID vaccines significantly reduced hospitalizations.
Americans deserve honesty, transparency, and leadership that puts science first.
Good news that the FDA Commissioner stepped down. Now RFK Jr. should do the same.

Taiwan is a thriving democracy and key economic partner — we must strengthen, not weaken, this relationship to ensure peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait and across the Indo-Pacific.
Ahead of Trump's summit with Xi, @SenJohnCurtis and I led a bipartisan group of senators in sending a clear message: the U.S. must uphold our commitments to Taiwan and adopt no new declaratory policy on the island.
This ruling is significant. Federal law enforcement must be held to the same standards we expect from the best of our local police departments. DHS and ICE urgently need aggressive reforms to ensure their actions are grounded in law, respect due process, and restore public trust.
A federal judge in Colorado has confirmed what we’ve been warning about: under President Trump, ICE agents are not properly trained and are carrying out warrantless arrests in violation of the law — disregarding people's rights.
I’ve fought consistently to protect these freedoms – they are essential and must be safeguarded for Coloradans and people across the country.
That includes defending access to Mifepristone – a safe, effective medication backed by decades of science – and protecting reproductive freedom nationwide including access to abortion and contraception.
During National Women’s Health Week, we must keep fighting to protect every woman’s right to make her own health care decisions.

Our provision would combine Ukraine's hard-won drone warfare expertise with American military resources — enhancing security for both our nations.
I'm leading this bipartisan effort with Sen. McConnell to strengthen the U.S.-Ukraine strategic partnership as the Ukrainian people fight off Putin's aggression.
Happy Small Business Week, Colorado!
Small businesses are the backbone of our economy, employing over 1 million Coloradans and representing 99.5% of businesses in our state.
Let's shop local to support the resilience of Colorado's small businesses.
Yesterday, I joined federal, state, military, and local leaders to discuss how we can strengthen and support the vital missions at Buckley Space Force Base.
I’ll keep fighting to support Buckley and reinforce our state’s role as a global leader in aerospace and national security.
That's why I introduced a bill to give Congress the power to override the President’s denial of disaster aid, so communities get help when they need it most; not when it’s politically convenient.
President Trump is weaponizing disaster relief against Colorado communities.
Trump rejected disaster aid after a record wildfire season and continues to block funding to help Colorado prevent potentially catastrophic fires ahead.

Across Colorado, we're in crisis: our teachers face the highest pay gap in the nation and can no longer afford to live in our state.
I won't stop fighting for Colorado teachers to earn competitive wages, access affordable housing, and continue to teach in the communities they love.
Happy Teacher Appreciation Week! As the former Superintendent of Denver Public Schools, I know strong schools start with strong teachers.
We must fight for our public lands and the workers who protect them.
