Had the honor to chat with Lorena Cantarovici, the Founder and CEO of Denver’s Maria Empanada before she testified at our Small Business Committee hearing to highlight American-made small businesses.
Her story is the American Dream.

We’re collecting healthcare stories from Coloradans to show just how broken the system is.
Was there a time you were charged too much for services? Have you ever received a surprise medical bill?

Today is the International Day of the World's Indigenous Peoples. We honor Native American communities — including Colorado's Ute Mountain Ute and Southern Ute Tribes — and celebrate their culture while recommitting to Tribal sovereignty and a more just future together.
Colorado turns 150 this year!!
The whole point of body cameras is transparency — not giving ICE the power to hide its lawlessness.
ICE doesn’t deserve another penny without accountability.

ICE is trying to cover up an outbreak of tuberculosis in their Aurora detention facility by refusing to work with public health officials.
We’ll continue showing up at the detention facility to demand answers and hold ICE accountable.
We just introduced a resolution to put a stop to President Trump’s illegal war with Iran.
American lives have been lost. Gas and fertilizer prices have skyrocketed. Our military stockpiles drained.
End this war. NOW.
Americans can’t afford the basics: gas, groceries, healthcare.
The last thing taxpayers should be funding are bloated warships with Trump’s name painted on them.

Trump is CRUSHING working families and our economy.
Jobs lost.
Wages plummeting.
Costs soaring.
Focus on the American people, not bombs, ballrooms, and billionaires.
The DOJ slush fund isn't dead. It's dormant.
The confirmation process is the Senate's best chance to end it for good.
A DOJ letter promising the slush fund won't move forward isn't law. It isn't binding. And it isn't enough.
As we celebrate the anniversary of the Voting Rights Act of 1965, we’re determined to protect this fundamental right for all Americans now and in the future.
When Todd Blanche says the DOJ slush fund for election criminals like Tina Peters isn't moving forward, we should not believe him. His word is worth about as much as the Trump Meme Coin.
I will vote no on his nomination for Attorney General.
The economy is great. For Donald Trump.
Today in our Senate Small Business Committee hearing, we highlighted small biz owners like Lorena, Founder and CEO of Maria Empanada in Denver. Her success story embodies the American Dream.
No affordable housing for you. But Trump gets a brand-new $5 million helipad.
Not one nickel of your taxpayer dollars should go toward Trump’s vanity projects while working families can’t afford the basics.
Exclusive: President Trump has directed contractors to redo weeks of work on his planned White House helipad, according to people who spoke on the condition of anonymity.
Trump has made the helipad a priority, but was dissatisfied with the results. https://wapo.st/4q0714z

Instead of meeting with Epstein survivors, what did Todd Blanche do? He rushed to Ghislaine Maxwell’s prison cell, and then she got transferred to a cushier prison camp. This is not justice. It is corruption of a system meant to protect the most vulnerable.
Wildfires are raging across the West and climate change is adding fuel to the fire.
We’re thankful for our first responders battling these fires and we’re committed to fighting for the resources they need.
Seniors shouldn’t have to skip or ration their medication. EVER!
We’ll vote NO on Todd Blanche to lead the DOJ.
Americans deserve an independent AG who respects the rule of law, not someone who refuses to stand up to Donald Trump.
Senate panel advances acting Attorney General Todd Blanche's nomination after initial resistance from GOP holdouts over "anti-weaponization" fund.

This drought is hurting Coloradans all around the state.
Farmers are fallowing their fields.
Families are cutting back on water use.
Outdoor rec is hurting.
To address our water future, we need more funding for projects battling this drought.
