Reports indicate that the Trump administration may attempt to slash billions from NOAA’s budget — including cutting research that forecasts natural disasters like wildfires & droughts. The Commerce Department must reverse these plans! Read our letter with Senator Bennet & Senator Hickenlooper 👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽

My Republican colleagues haven’t held a single town-hall in Colorado this year — not one. Last night, we hosted our 9th! Many thanks to the folks in Eagle County for showing up & participating.

Rep. Joe Neguse@neguse.house.govApr 24(source)

Grateful to the hundreds of folks who attended our town hall tonight in Steamboat Springs and made their voices heard. Next stop — Eagle County!

Rep. Joe Neguse@neguse.house.govApr 23(source)

Grateful for the opportunity to visit with local leaders in Granby and Walden earlier today, as we work together to address the challenges facing communities in Western Colorado.

Rep. Joe Neguse@neguse.house.govApr 23(source)

Excited to kick-off a busy day visiting with folks across Colorado’s Western Slope. ▶️ 5 counties — Eagle, Grand, Routt, Summit and Jackson ▶️ 5 cities — Kremmling, Granby, Walden, Steamboat Springs, and Edwards ▶️ 2 town-halls And a lot of coffee! ☕️☕️☕️

Rep. Joe Neguse@neguse.house.govApr 22(source)

This Earth Day, I’m grateful to represent the most treasured public lands in the country — from Longs Peak to the White River National Forest. We must continue to do everything we can to preserve & protect our public lands!

Rep. Joe Neguse@neguse.house.govApr 22(source)

🚨🚨Happening tomorrow! Looking forward to seeing folks at our two town halls on Colorado’s Western Slope — in Routt County and Eagle County! Learn more here 👉🏾 neguse.house.gov/town-halls

Secretary Hegseth lectured the country for YEARS about the dangers of mishandling classified information. The hypocrisy is stunning. Hegseth’s actions have clearly undermined our national security. He must resign.

Earlier today we heard disturbing reports of DOGE personnel arriving unannounced at NOAA & NIST. So I went onsite to meet with agency officials & get answers. ⬇️ ⬇️ ⬇️

“We all have the duty to do good” —Pope Francis Today, the world mourns the passing of “The People’s Pope,” whose lifetime of spreading kindness, hope and love will be remembered for generations. May he Rest in Peace.

Today, we remember and honor the innocent lives lost 26 years ago today in the tragic mass shooting at Columbine High School. We’ll continue to hold their families in our hearts — always.

Rep. Joe Neguse@neguse.house.govApr 20(source)

Happy Easter from the Neguse family to yours!

Rep. Joe Neguse@neguse.house.govApr 18(source)

Be sure to watch this incredible 9NEWS segment from a few years back on the 40th anniversary of Colorado’s Continental Divide Trail, capturing our breathtaking public lands. You’ll see why it’s so important to preserve it for future generations by passing my bill to expand its protections!

Rep. Joe Neguse@neguse.house.govApr 18(source)

Last week, I was excited to meet with Aadi of Boulder County at the U.S. Capitol, who won our 2025 Congressional App Challenge. Drawing from his family's experience with the Marshall Fire, he built an app that notifies folks of areas at risk of wildfires. Well done Aadi!

Rep. Joe Neguse@neguse.house.govApr 18(source)

Absolutely reckless and dangerous. "But ongoing cuts, funding freezes, and hiring pauses have weakened the nation’s already strained firefighting force by hitting support staff who play crucial roles in preventing and battling blazes."

Trump said cuts wouldn’t affect public safety. Then he fired hundreds of workers who help fight wildfires.

The White House and DOGE have sought to eliminate thousands of jobs from the Forest Service. The wildland firefighting force is one of many targets within the agency.

Rep. Joe Neguse@neguse.house.govApr 18(source)

As the lead Democrat on the House Subcommittee on Federal Lands, I’m deeply concerned about President Trump's recently issued Executive Order on timber production, which ignores key wildfire mitigation and ecological protections. We’re pushing back. 👇🏾

Rep. Joe Neguse@neguse.house.govApr 17(source)

President Trump's tariff tax has forced Colorado’s small businesses to scramble for a new way forward. Earlier this week, I met with business leaders at the Boulder Chamber to hear firsthand about the challenges they’re facing and how we can work together to support them.

Rep. Joe Neguse@neguse.house.govApr 17(source)

A busy few days earlier this week visiting with so many folks across Colorado’s 2nd District — from town halls to small business roundtables and more! 👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽

Rep. Joe Neguse@neguse.house.govApr 17(source)

DOGE recently slated multiple federal agency leases across Colorado for cancellation, including a critical facility in Fort Collins that monitors wildfire activity in our national forests — and we are pushing back!

Rep. Joe Neguse@neguse.house.govApr 16(source)

Communities on Colorado’s Western Slope have felt the real consequences of post office closures, staffing shortages & delayed mail. Proud to join @bennet.senate.gov & Senator Hickenlooper in demanding that USPS ensure “DOGE” does not wreak havoc on mail delivery in rural Colorado.
