Colorado, I’m running for Governor. From expanding the Child Tax Credit to securing $7B for Colorado’s infrastructure, we’ve made real progress together. Now, it’s time to keep building a future in Colorado that works for all of us.

Generations of Coloradans, from farmers and ranchers to conservationists and sportsmen, have worked together to protect Greenland Ranch. That’s why I cannot support the proposal to annex land across from it for a Buc-ee’s development. Read my statement:

I’d do anything for Colorado. I’m running for Governor because sometimes you have to turn things upside down to move forward. Another great visit to the Pueblo State Fair! Next time, I’ll have my annual Pass Key after the rides. 🥪 🎢

Colorado Springs, you’ve got a hidden gem in Hafa Adai Fiesta Food, the only Guamanian restaurant in the state. Do yourself a favor and check it out.

Powerful discussion with my friends from the Greater Metro Denver Ministerial Alliance. From opening doors for Black small businesses to breaking the cycle of incarceration & building schools that work for every child, we’ve got work ahead to build a Colorado that lifts everyone.

But with Trump taking a wrecking ball to our institutions, our courts, and the checks and balances of our republic, we can’t fight with one arm tied behind our backs. As Republicans rig the system in Texas, California is doing what's required to confront this fight head-on. 2/.

What Texas Republicans are doing is dangerous and undermines our democracy. I introduced the first bill in the Senate to ban partisan gerrymandering because voters should choose their representatives, not the other way around. 1/.

If you’re hunting for good news here’s something: Talkspace therapy is covered by most insurance plans and the average copay is only $15 (but most covered members pay $0).

On the way back home from meetings in Hayden, Steamboat, and Vail, we hit a flat tire. Real leadership means rolling up your sleeves…whether it’s changing a tire on I-70 or tackling challenges across Colorado.

Local journalism is essential to our democracy. Colorado is stronger when reporters have the independence to ask tough questions and keep us all informed. An FCC-approved merger of @9News & @KDVR’s parent companies would greatly weaken Colorado’s civic infrastructure.

Great to catch up recently with Senator @MichaelBennet. Over the years—from town halls to GOTV—I’ve seen his integrity & commitment to Colorado values firsthand. As CO’s 1st Latino Senate President, I’m proud to support my friend for Governor. #BennetForCO #COGov

I hear the same thing in Routt County as I do across Colorado: folks love this state, but it's getting too expensive. I'm running for Governor to make Colorado affordable for everyone. I hope you’ll join us.

Honored to have @JoeNeguse backing our campaign. From championing families and opportunity to fighting for our public lands and climate, Joe’s leadership has strengthened Colorado from the ground up. Together, we’ll keep building a stronger, fairer, more affordable state.

Colorado leads the nation in secure, accessible elections, and our vote-by-mail system sets a gold standard for the country. We won’t let Trump undermine it, and I will stop at nothing to protect it.

Our kids are in the midst of a mental health crisis, and endless scrolling doesn't help. Pop-ups and warnings are important tools to help Colorado kids make informed choices about their time. Important legal questions remain, but our kids deserve better.

A coalition of tech companies sued the state Thursday, asking a federal judge to strike down a law requiring them to warn young users about the impacts of using their social media products.
