🚨Trump reversed the Biden-era rule to ensure medical debt didn’t impact credit scores, so it didn’t limit your ability to buy a home, get a job, or build a future. People are already underwater with high costs and rising inflation from his tariffs. We know who he is fighting for, and it isn’t you.

Republicans passed Trump’s budget gutting health care & cost-saving investments just to hand billionaires tax breaks and add to the deficit. Now families face 104% premium hikes & will be forced to choose between going to the doctor & putting food on the table.

13 years ago, 12 lives were lost in a mass shooting at a movie theater in Aurora. We need federal gun safety policies to keep guns out of the hands of dangerous criminals to stop these preventable tragedies. This is a uniquely American experience — but we should never accept that.

I’m using my position in Congress to request $3 million in federal funding to replace outdated wastewater infrastructure in Park County. Clean, safe water is non-negotiable for my family and yours. I’m fighting to secure this funding so we can keep making good on that promise to families in Alma.

In Colorado, we know too well how scary and devastating wildfires can be. Today, I’m proud to highlight funding I requested to bolster fire prevention in Jeffco. This will help our first responders not only react quicker, but also better predict fires in the first place.

Today, I’m proud to highlight one of the 15 projects I’m fighting for in Congress – a new child care center in Cañon City! I’m advocating for funding to help reopen a closed facility and bring affordable child care to working families in Fremont County in a place where there’s not a lot of options.

Construction in Colorado is just one of the many industries that will be impacted by Trump’s mass, indiscriminate deportations. Not only will these deportations leave jobs unfilled, it will affect American-born construction workers as the entire industry shrinks without the workforce to support it

A lot of people ask me what it's like to be in the minority party here in Congress. While we’re not in power, we are not powerless.. It was great to speak with Chuck Todd about what it means to govern from the minority and what we can do in this moment when so many feel hopeless.

U.S. Rep. Brittany Pettersen@pettersen.house.govJul 18(source)

Great news! We just submitted our proposals for millions of dollars in federal funding to support 15 projects across our communities. From funding for affordable child care to our local infrastructure, these projects will improve our lives every day in #CO07.

We know water is our lifeline in the West. But Trump is going after the @usbr WaterSMART program, which has funded projects to conserve our water and help us protect against drought. If Republicans don’t join us in pushing back, Donald Trump is going to leave us high and dry.

Remember when Trump promised "90 deals in 90 days?" Also his promise to lower costs on Day One? I joined my Democratic colleagues in supporting a lawsuit that would stop Trump from abusing tariffs – because our families shouldn’t be forced to foot the bill of his unhinged decisions.

When it comes to the Big Bad Bill, Trump is doing what he does best: lying. Trump is a con artist but he's not going to be able to con his way out of the suffering that is going to hit families. This is going to be catastrophic for patients, hospitals, and providers in CO & across the country

U.S. Rep. Brittany Pettersen@pettersen.house.govJul 15(source)

This is Trump’s latest scam to enrich himself at the expense of the rest of us. That’s why I’m using my position to support legislation so Trump and future leaders can’t profit from their positions. Trump continues to sell off the interests of the US to benefit his own. Absolutely disgraceful.

Trump's Big Bad Bill is a catastrophe for our families Hospitals and nursing homes will shutter. Kids will go hungry. ERs will be completely overrun. Trump said he was going to lower costs on day one. Instead he's puling the rug out and dismantling the systems we all rely on.

U.S. Rep. Brittany Pettersen@pettersen.house.govJul 14(source)

Colorado is still reeling from the terrorist attack in Boulder. But now Trump is illegally withholding billions of dollars already approved by Congress for FEMA to help us prevent attacks like this. This is completely backwards and puts us all at risk.

Had a great tour of the Cripple Creek & Victor Gold Mine, one of the biggest employers in Cripple Creek & home to one of the world’s only high-altitude electric mining vehicles. There are only 5 like it in the entire world! Thanks so much for showing me around!

Thank you to everyone who joined our town halls in Cañon City and Woodland Park - it means so much to hear directly from you. One woman shared how Medicaid keeps her husband alive. Farmers told us how critical the program is to them. These stories stay with me. I will always show up for you.
