If Republicans allow the tax credits that help people afford their health care premiums expire, a couple in Ouray would be forced to pay over $1000/ month for health insurance. That is unbelievable.
Coloradans cannot afford that.
Republicans must negotiate with Democrats to preserve these credits.
That’s why I’m leading the push to prohibit officers from hiding their faces and require them to clearly display their agency, name, and unique identifier during immigration enforcement.
Transparency is essential for accountability and trust. (2/2)

Read my full statement on the targeted cancellation of Colorado's energy project funding:
Trump and Republicans are lying about immigrants to distract from the truth. Undocumented immigrants have never been eligible for federal funding under ACA, Medicaid, or Medicare. (1/2)
