Walking into the hospital shouldn’t be like walking into a casino–a complete gamble. Patients and employers should know how much they’re paying upfront with no trickery or games.
Let’s pass our Patients Deserve Price Tags Act into law!

We’ve now voted a DOZEN TIMES to end Trump’s illegal war that’s costing American lives.
The American people are sick and tired of it. We need to bring our troops home safely and start bringing down costs for Americans.
END THE WAR NOW!
I'm grateful for the support of patient advocates as we work with Senator Marshall, Senator Cassidy, and Senator Sanders to get this bipartisan bill across the finish line.

At a time when 41% of Americans carry a staggering $220 billion in medical debt, patients deserve price transparency.
Our Patients Deserve Price Tags Act brings much-needed sunlight to our health care system—the first step toward lowering costs and making universal health care a reality.

In June, we visited Glenwood Springs and heard the community's real concerns about the limestone quarry expansion, which poses a threat to local water resources and tourism.
We stand with Glenwood Springs and are committed to stopping this expansion.
The link between climate change and drought is undeniable.
New research shows the 2026 Western snow drought was about four times more likely because of climate change.
We need to work together to address this existential crisis.

🚨BIG NEWS: Our bipartisan Patients Deserve Price Tags Act just passed out of committee and will now head for a full Senate vote!
Healthcare price transparency is the first step towards universal coverage. Let’s get it done!
4.5 million Americans have lost SNAP benefits because of President Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill.
Cutting food assistance for struggling families to fund tax breaks for billionaires is shameful.

May 5th.
That’s the last time Secretary Hegseth and General Caine gave a public briefing on the Iran War.
Now they want Congress to write a blank check for nearly $100 billion.
Why are they keeping the Americans in the dark, but wanting taxpayers to hand over billions for their illegal war?
The proof is in the pudding. Trump is bad for the economy and bad for American jobs.
That starts by making healthcare costs transparent so patients and businesses know exactly what they’re paying for through our bipartisan Patients Deserve Price Tags Act.
We are the wealthiest country in the history of the world. Americans deserve healthcare that’s affordable, accessible, and universal.
Enough is enough. The American people overwhelmingly don't want this war of choice. President Trump needs to end it before more lives are lost and more damage is done.
More than a hundred billion in taxpayer dollars have been spent for no discernible benefit, while working families struggle to afford gas, groceries, and health care.
With no deal in sight, President Trump is now escalating this illegal war even further, with no clear justification and no endgame.
This weekend was a painful reminder that President Trump's war isn't some distant conflict. It's costing lives and hurting Colorado families.
Seventeen heroic U.S. service members have now been tragically killed, with many more injured.
All across Colorado, we’ve fought alongside communities for federal funding to help invest in projects that help Coloradans!
Americans just can’t catch a break under Trump. They feel it every time they go to the pump, with gas prices again at over $4/gallon on average nationwide because of his illegal war in Iran.
End the war and bring down costs here at home NOW.

We must pass gun safety legislation to make our communities safer from senseless acts of gun violence that continue to terrorize our country.

Today marks 14 years since the horrific Aurora theater shooting. Our thoughts are with the victims, their loved ones, and the entire community.
This comes on the heels of another mass shooting in Denver last night.

ICE is out of control. Another detention facility in Colorado will make a horrible situation even worse.
