No one likes the Big Bad Bill, even the Republicans who voted for it. Republican Senator Josh Hawley just introduced a bill to reverse many of the cuts to Medicaid that he voted for only two weeks ago. I'm fighting to stop the Big Bad Bill from kicking 17 million Americans off their health care.

Rep. Diana DeGette@degette.house.govJul 15(source)

After Trump signed the Big Bad Bill into law, Planned Parenthood of the Rocky Mountains had to turn away hundreds of patients & cancel appointments for care like cancer screenings, maternal health, and family planning. This cruel & callous policy is already taking health care away from Coloradoans.

Rep. Diana DeGette@degette.house.govJul 15(source)

Their decision to lay off thousands of HHS staff will devastate our public health, gut biomedical research, halt progress on lifesaving cures, and put the health of millions at risk. SCOTUS allowing these layoffs sets a dangerous precedent. We deserve better than this unserious administration.

Rep. Diana DeGette@degette.house.govJul 15(source)

RFK Jr. provided zero justification for laying off over 10,000 HHS personnel when he appeared before the Health Subcommittee. Now, he and Trump are gutting our health defenses with no plan, no justification, & no concern for the consequences.

Rep. Diana DeGette@degette.house.govJul 14(source)

The Supreme Court just greenlit Trump’s plan to shutter the Department of Education, without a single vote from Congress. This is not only unconstitutional—it’s unconscionable. This move will deepen educational inequities for vulnerable students who already face the steepest hurdles.

BREAKING: The Supreme Court is allowing President Trump to put his plan to dismantle the Education Department back on track and lay off nearly 1,400 employees.

It's been less than a week, and we're already seeing the devastating impacts of Trump’s Big Bogus Bill right now. Thousands of Coloradans lost access to health care and food assistance the day he signed it. This isn’t hypothetical. It’s happening. And it will continue to hurt families in CO.

One Big Beautiful Bill law blocks Colorado patients on Medicaid to go to Planned Parenthood for care as others face future without SNAP

The impact of the massive Republican budget act is showing up in organizations across Colorado

Rep. Diana DeGette@degette.house.govJul 10(source)

As Co-Chair of the @reprocaucus.bsky.social, I know what’s at stake. In many communities, Planned Parenthood is the only expert, affordable provider of sexual and reproductive health care. This isn’t about partisanship. Every person deserves access to the care they need.

Rep. Diana DeGette@degette.house.govJul 10(source)

Finally, I joined leaders and advocates at Planned Parenthood of the Rocky Mountains. The Big Bogus Bill would deny essential care—including birth control, cancer screenings, and more—to 1 million Planned Parenthood patients who rely on Medicaid nationwide.

Rep. Diana DeGette@degette.house.govJul 10(source)

Next, I stopped by the Inner City Health Center to underscore how the Big Bad Bill will leave ~17 million people uninsured & cause hundreds of hospitals to close. In Denver alone, +162,000 kids, seniors, & families rely on Medicaid. The GOP’s willingness to rip away this lifeline is shameful.

Rep. Diana DeGette@degette.house.govJul 10(source)

Nearly 91,000 Denverites—more than 1 in 8 households—rely on SNAP, but the GOP's bill slashes funding and puts food assistance at risk. Families shouldn’t go hungry to fund tax cuts for billionaires.

Rep. Diana DeGette@degette.house.govJul 10(source)

Today, I'm traveling around Denver to highlight the impacts of Trump's Big Bad Bill, starting with Metro Caring in Denver—where demand is rising and support is under threat.

Rep. Diana DeGette@degette.house.govJul 7(source)

I’m deeply saddened about the devastating floods in Texas over the weekend.   As we continue to learn more about this tragedy, I am praying for the families of those who were lost and I am keeping all of the region in my thoughts as they grieve, recover, and rebuild.

Rep. Diana DeGette@degette.house.govJul 4(source)

Nearly 250 years ago, our nation was born with a promise of liberty and justice for all. This Independence Day, we remember the sacrifices of those who fought for our freedoms as we seek to make that promise come true for every American.

My full statement on the One Big Ugly Bill.

Rep. Diana DeGette@degette.house.govJul 3(source)

Just as bad, their bill adds trillions to the national debt and worsens our deficit— even as the so-called most fiscally conservative GOP members just voted to pass it. Jeffries was right — in Colorado, we’d say these folks are all hat, no cattle. Shameful. House Democrats will press on!

Rep. Diana DeGette@degette.house.govJul 3(source)

During his record-breaking speech, Leader Jeffries called out House GOP’s hypocrisy & extremism. They’ll have to explain to their constituents why they supported a bill to gut Medicaid & SNAP, and defund Planned Parenthood, after publicly railing against the devastating cuts they just voted for.

Rep. Diana DeGette@degette.house.govJul 2(source)

Republicans say the Big Ugly Bill targets “waste, fraud, and abuse,” but what they really mean is cutting qualified people off a lifeline they rely on. In fact, Medicaid coverage for ~377,000 Coloradans could be at risk. Kicking people off their insurance to fund billionaire tax cuts is cruel.

Republicans say Medicaid work requirements target the lazy. Here’s who could be collateral damage in Colorado.

Medicaid work requirements would hurt eligible Coloradans, studies show

Republicans have launched a full-out assault on reproductive health care.

Donald Trump's Big Ugly Bill by the numbers.

Rep. Diana DeGette@degette.house.govJul 2(source)

Here’s how the Big Ugly Bill would impact Colorado’s 8th District. 🏥 29,000 people would lose access to healthcare 🍞 30,000 households would lose access to food nutrition programs ⚡️ Nearly 1,000 energy jobs will be lost Colorado can’t afford the Big Ugly Bill.
