No one should have to choose between basic needs and life-saving medicine. Colorado just became the first state to cap the cost of a critical drug—an important step toward affordable prescriptions for all.

While the federal government punts on medical debt protections, Colorado is stepping up. By removing medical debt from credit reports, capping interest rates, and increasing transparency, we’re providing 700,000 Coloradans with relief and stronger financial security.

When Congress is afraid to come back because it means voting on releasing the Epstein files, you know something’s wrong. Thanks to my friends Congressman Tom Massie and Rep. Ro Khanna for pushing to release the Epstein files.

Project 2025 isn’t “someday.” It’s already happening. We’re seeing efforts to strip away rights and cut vital services. Colorado will keep fighting for freedom, fairness, and a better future. I tried to warn everyone, and now this plan is being used against us.

Hardworking people and entrepreneurs like Aubrey are striving to achieve the American dream and rely on Enhanced Premium Tax Credits to make their health insurance more affordable. Congressional inaction on this issue will increase costs for everyone.

Colorado is a national leader in EVs, expanding access and creating pathways for Coloradans to purchase an EV at low cost. I encourage all Coloradans who are thinking of buying an electric vehicle or have been holding off: get out there right now.

Countless Coloradans and visitors from around the world travel I-70 to enjoy our incredible mountain communities and the breathtaking outdoors our state has to offer. This new rest area will enhance the travel experience for travelers, offering a safe place to take a break from the drive.

Americans are unfortunately feeling the pain from Republican cuts to Medicaid that shift money from patients to bureaucrats. In Colorado, we continue to do everything we can to ensure Coloradans can get the health care needed to be healthy and thrive.

We secured emergency funds to keep WIC going so families aren’t cut off, but the federal shutdown is hurting Coloradans. The state can’t replace the federal gov’t. Republicans must reopen it and stop punishing working families.

Dr. Jane Goodall broke barriers, inspired generations of girls to become scientists, and dedicated her life to understanding and protecting our planet. I had the privilege of meeting her in Colorado. She will be deeply missed, but her legacy will continue to inspire.

I stopped by the Safeway on Corona Street in Denver today to get my flu and COVID vaccines. 💉 Staying up to date on vaccines is one of the best ways we can keep ourselves, our families, and our communities healthy this season.

American film is alive and well — just look at Sundance and the new Stanley Film Center here in Colorado!

We should be lifting up American artists and filmmakers, not slapping senseless tariffs on our own countrymen and women. Even Lord of the Rings would be taxed under this horrible plan…

I’m calling on Congress & the Trump Admin to stop punishing Americans and end the shutdown. From stripping health care to tariff taxes, DC is hurting hardworking Coloradans. In Colorado, we balance our budget every year—Washington should too.
