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.

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.
Bennet, Husted Introduce Legislation to Help Make First-Time Homeownership More Affordable  - U.S. Senator Michael Bennet
Washington, D.C. — Colorado U.S. Senator Michael Bennet, a senior member of the Senate Finance Committee, and U.S. Senator Jon Husted (R-Ohio) introduced the First-Time Homebuyer Empowerment Act. This...

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
Washington, D.C. — Colorado U.S. Senator Michael Bennet joined U.S. Senators Jacky Rosen (D-Nev.), Amy Klobuchar (D-Minn.), and Jeff Merkley (D-Ore.) to introduce a bill to help state, local, and Trib...
Michael Bennet@bennet.senate.govAug 1(source)
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.
Michael Bennet@bennet.senate.govJul 31(source)
I'm leading the charge to urge the National Telecoms & Information Administration to work with state and local partners to protect wildlife habitat and irrigation access at the 1,700-acre Table Mountain Field Site north of Boulder.
Bennet, Hickenlooper, Neguse Urge Coordination Between NTIA and Local Partners To Protect 1,700 Acres of Public Land - U.S. Senator Michael Bennet
Washington, D.C. — Colorado U.S. Senator Michael Bennet led Senator John Hickenlooper and Congressman Joe Neguse in urging the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) to work...

Meanwhile, this Administration has already funneled millions of taxpayer dollars into this war and is now asking for billions more. Enough is enough.
Michael Bennet@bennet.senate.govJul 31(source)
154 days into President Trump's reckless war of choice, the toll keeps rising. Colorado families have shouldered $1 billion in extra gas costs they cannot afford.
Michael Bennet@bennet.senate.govJul 31(source)
Today’s announcement is the bare minimum. I will continue fighting for a durable, long-term solution that brings certainty to the Colorado River. Read my full statement on the Bureau of Reclamation’s short-term plan for operating the Colorado River ⬇️
Michael Bennet@bennet.senate.govJul 30(source)
On this anniversary, I'm fighting to protect against the Trump Administration's attacks on health care, especially their efforts to slash Medicaid coverage for hundreds of thousands of Coloradans through Republicans' One Big Beautiful Bill Act.
Michael Bennet@bennet.senate.govJul 30(source)
Today is the 61st anniversary of President Johnson signing Medicare and Medicaid into law. Decades later, these two vital programs remain a lifeline for 2.3 million Coloradans.
Michael Bennet@bennet.senate.govJul 29(source)
The Trump Administration’s latest asylum rule undermines due process and turns its back on people fleeing persecution. America is strongest when we uphold our laws and values. We cannot deny vulnerable people a fair chance to seek protection guaranteed under U.S. law. thehill.com/policy/natio...
New rule could speed deportation of asylum seekers
Starting Tuesday, the Trump administration will cut off asylum seekers’ access to an interview to weigh their claims, instead allowing officers to funnel migrants into immigration court for deporta…
