In the richest country in the world, child poverty is a moral obscenity. The expanded #ChildTaxCredit would change the lives of millions of American children for the better. Today, Democrats demonstrated that we are fighting for families in every corner of our country.

As wildfires destroy pastures and harm livestock across Colorado, we must use every tool at hand to support our livestock producers. That's why I called on the @USDA to act quickly and help our producers recover from this summer’s devastating fires.

The IRS Direct File program made filing taxes easier, faster, and cheaper for working families before President Trump discontinued it. I’m encouraging everyone to take the Direct File survey before Sept. 2nd and help make the program available again ⬇️.

A vibrant outdoor recreation industry is essential to Colorado’s economy & a bedrock for many of our rural communities. I will keep pushing back as Trump’s cuts threaten how we track and grow Colorado's outdoor rec economy – responsible for $37B in spending each year & over 500K.

From taking constituent calls to helping with legislative priorities, I can safely say my offices would not function without our interns. I was glad to meet with our incredible Denver summer interns this week and thank them for their hard work on behalf of Colorado.

The Trump administration's decision to rescind guidance requiring schools to accommodate English learners is a blatant attempt to make education less accessible. This administration's continued attacks on English learners fly in the face of our country's values.

Teachers across Colorado tell me they cannot afford to live in the cities where they teach. That is a disservice to their work & their students. We have to tackle the affordable housing crisis head-on & allow our teachers to better know & serve their communities.
