Xcel Energy is warning about dangerous winds and potential power shutoffs as wildfire risk grows. Our communities know this threat well it takes investment, coordination, and trust to stay safe. But Trump’s reckless shutdown has stretched wildfire resources thin. We need leaders who put safety first

Xcel warns of fire risk Monday as winds hit Colorado's Front Range, eastern plains

Xcel Energy is warning of critical fire weather on Monday as a cold front moves into Colorado’s Front Range, dropping temperatures to around 60 degrees.

Happy Diwali! Today we celebrate light over darkness, hope over fear, and community over division. May this Festival of Lights remind us of the power we have to build a brighter, more compassionate future together.

Confirming what we already knew: Trump's tariffs are costing all of us. We shouldn't be footing the bill for Trump’s trade war. In Congress, I've been sounding the alarm for months but we need Republicans to join us & put an end to this. https://nbcnews.to/499JIPf

U.S. consumers bearing more than half the cost of tariffs so far, Goldman Sachs says

The findings suggest U.S. consumers will continue to struggle with high prices — something Trump had promised to address in the run-up to his re-election.

Republicans’ refusal to work with us will make it impossible for rural Coloradans to get life-saving care. Without action, premiums in Fremont, Custer & Teller Counties could rise up to 283%. This is about keeping families covered and ensuring no one has to choose between rent or care.

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

Republicans say they stand with farmers but they just shut down the government, cutting off farm loans, disaster aid, and affordable health insurance for nearly 30% of farm workers. Most farms in CO-7 are family-owned and can’t afford more instability from Trump’s chaos. https://politi.co/46X0LCH

U.S. Rep. Brittany Pettersen@pettersen.house.govOct 16(source)

Trump is using this painful shutdown to wipe out the CDC, just years after a pandemic killed over 1 million Americans and nearly crippled our economy. Now he’s dismantling the agency that prevents outbreaks and keeps our kids safe. As a mom, I’m horrified. Shame on you. https://wapo.st/3W5mTVl

U.S. Rep. Brittany Pettersen@pettersen.house.govOct 16(source)

We must fund our government and protect Americans’ healthcare. Federal workers who keep our country running, processing veterans’ benefits, protecting airways, ensuring clean water shouldn’t pay the price for political games. They deserve better.

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

Congress approved this funding, but DOE unlawfully canceled $600M+ in Colorado projects as political retribution. That means lost jobs, halted power upgrades, and gutted research—all because Colorado doesn’t support Trump. We’re demanding accountability and action.

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

Trump might not value our federal workers, but my team and I have their backs. We’re supporting those impacted by the shutdown and hosted a resource fair. Federal workers just want to get back to serving our country they’re critical to our safety, well-being, and economy.

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

Trump and Republicans are shutting down the government—threatening renters, locking families out of homeownership, and gutting small business loans. Each week costs our economy $54B, all while Trump’s billionaire buddies get richer and hardworking families pay the price. https://cnn.it/4oaLmoJ

What this shutdown could mean for the economy and your 401(k) | CNN Business

Although painful for federal workers, travelers, and thousands of people and businesses in and outside Washington that partner with the US government, shutdowns typically aren’t significant events for the stock market or the economy.

Trump’s Big Ugly Bill is devastating Colorado families—cutting Medicaid payments for those caring for disabled loved ones. Life is already unaffordable, and this cruel cut could break caregivers. I’m working with Congress to demand Trump roll back these cuts and lower costs. https://dpo.st/4nYKiUQ

Colorado families caring for disabled adults to see cut in Medicaid pay

For years, family caregivers received a higher reimbursement from Medicaid than “host homes” where a handful of people with disabilities live with one or more people in charge of their …

Trump’s Big Ugly Bill made it easier to sell off our public lands—and now his BLM wants to auction 50,000+ acres in Colorado for oil and gas. Our public lands define who we are and power our economy—they should never be sold to the highest bidder.

BLM schedules Colorado oil and gas lease sale

The Interior Department agency plans to sell leases covering more than 50,000 acres of public land in the state.

Republicans are once again trying to rip away the tax credits that keep health care costs low for millions. Because of Trump, premiums could skyrocket, hundreds of thousands of Coloradans may lose coverage, and rural hospitals are at risk, all while his billionaire buddies keep their tax breaks.

U.S. Rep. Brittany Pettersen@pettersen.house.govOct 13(source)

Today on Indigenous Peoples Day, we honor Native communities and acknowledge the true history of colonization and discrimination. As Trump attacks their sovereignty and sacred lands, we must stand united in honoring their resilience and uplifting their voices.

U.S. Rep. Brittany Pettersen@pettersen.house.govOct 13(source)

Grateful to join the Evergreen community for their annual Health & Safety Day. Even as they heal from the Evergreen High School tragedy, their strength shines. Thankful to spend time with first responders and frontline workers who keep us safe every day.

U.S. Rep. Brittany Pettersen@pettersen.house.govOct 12(source)

Trump’s tariffs are a tax on working families. An 81-year-old Coloradan paid $467 at CVS for medicine that costs $27 in Canada. No one should choose between health care and essentials. I hope Republicans join us in forcing a vote to end these reckless tariffs.

U.S. Rep. Brittany Pettersen@pettersen.house.govOct 11(source)

Republicans gutted our health care system in their Big Ugly Bill — now millions could see premiums double or triple in weeks. Instead of lowering costs for working families, GOP leaders spread lies. Tax credits require citizenship, legal residency, and paying taxes. Shameful. https://bit.ly/48YfFtM

Republicans Are Telling Lies About Undocumented Immigrants To Deflect Blame for Health Care Cost Increases They Supported

Republican inaction on premium tax credits will cause health insurance costs to soar for more than 20 million people.

U.S. Rep. Brittany Pettersen@pettersen.house.govOct 11(source)

Day 11 of Republicans' refusal to show up and work with us to solve the healthcare crisis.

U.S. Rep. Brittany Pettersen@pettersen.house.govOct 11(source)

Attention Lakewood! If you’ve been impacted by the shutdown, our office is here to support you. Join us for a Federal Worker Resource Fair for resources, information, and support for federal employees in CO-7. RSVP here. https://bit.ly/4742wNk

U.S. Rep. Brittany Pettersen@pettersen.house.govOct 9(source)

Thanks to the nearly 16,000 Coloradans who joined our telephone town hall last night! I know many of you are worried about the shutdown and health care crisis. My team and I are working around the clock for you and your family — we’ll get through this together.
