The Senate just passed our bipartisan bill to put more pressure on Putin and stand firmly with the Ukrainian people. The House must pass it in September — and the Senate must do everything we can to continue supporting Ukraine. Read my full statement ⬇️

It is our responsibility to recognize their service, including by passing the Purple Heart Veterans Education Act, which would ensure that every Purple Heart recipient can transfer their earned benefits to support their family’s education and success.
Michael Bennet@bennet.senate.govAug 7(source)
On Purple Heart Day, we honor and remember the nearly two million servicemembers who have earned the Purple Heart for their sacrifices in defense of our nation.

As President Trump continues to push his voter suppression bill that would restrict mail-in voting and undermine the voting rights of millions of Americans, we continue our fight to defend Colorado’s gold standard election system against Trump’s baseless attacks and conspiracy theories.

Today, we celebrate the 61st Anniversary of the Voting Rights Act and honor the generations who fought to secure the fundamental right to vote for every American.

This legislation will provide new tools and resources for partners at every level to address this growing outbreak and protect communities on Colorado’s Front Range.
Michael Bennet@bennet.senate.govAug 6(source)
We must work together to keep our forests healthy and mitigate wildfire risk, which is why I introduced the Emergency Mountain Pine Beetle Response and Coordination Act.
Michael Bennet@bennet.senate.govAug 6(source)
Colorado’s warming weather and prolonged drought have created the perfect conditions for the spread of the mountain pine beetle in Ponderosa pine forests across the state. www.bennet.senate.gov/2026/08/06/b...

Michael Bennet@bennet.senate.govAug 6(source)
Today, with deep disappointment, I voted against the 2026 Farm Bill in the Senate Agriculture Committee. I could not support the bill as written, but I remain committed to finding a bipartisan path forward that works for Colorado families, communities, and farmers.
Michael Bennet@bennet.senate.govAug 5(source)
That's why I'm working with Senator Husted to introduce the bipartisan First-Time Home Buyer Empowerment Act, helping first-time homebuyers overcome one of the biggest barriers to homeownership by allowing them to use savings they already have to cover a down payment.
Michael Bennet@bennet.senate.govAug 5(source)
Across Colorado, the rising cost of housing continues to push homeownership further out of reach for young people and working families.

We must continue standing with Coloradans who have borne the brunt of this dangerous pollution and protect the health and well-being of every family living nearby.
Michael Bennet@bennet.senate.govAug 4(source)
I'm glad the court upheld the right of North Denver and Commerce City residents to hold Suncor accountable to the law and fight for clean air in their communities.
Michael Bennet@bennet.senate.govAug 2(source)
That's why I'm glad to join my colleagues to introduce the Wildfire Air Quality Sensor Expansion Act, which will help state, local, and Tribal agencies monitor worsening air pollution from wildfires and make better public health decisions.
Michael Bennet@bennet.senate.govAug 2(source)
As Colorado faces one of the most severe wildfire seasons on record, Coloradans are worried not just about fire growth and destruction, but about the health risks that come with poor air quality.
Bennet, Rosen, Klobuchar, Merkley Create and Expand Grant and Loan Programs to Monitor Air Pollution from Wildfires - U.S. Senator Michael Bennet

Moving here with my wife, Susan, and raising our daughters in Colorado was the best decision I've ever made. Today, I encourage Coloradans from every corner of our state to get outside and enjoy everything it has to offer.
Michael Bennet@bennet.senate.govAug 1(source)
Happy 150th birthday, Colorado! Let's celebrate everything that makes this state the best in America: our mountains, our public lands, and the Coloradans who call it home.
Michael Bennet@bennet.senate.govJul 31(source)
Glad to join @hickenlooper.senate.gov and @neguse.house.gov in calling for local cooperation to protect these public lands and prevent harm to wildlife populations and habitats.
