This absolutely breaks my heart. I’m glad CO is a safe place for transgender children, but it’s devastating that families are being forced to leave their communities. These cruel policies target some of the most vulnerable kids. In Colorado, we support you for being who you are.

With #RoevWade under threat nationally, I’m proud to join my colleagues in the senate in passing the Reproductive Health Equity Act. Every Coloradan should be able to choose if and when they want to start a family. We can't go back #PassRHEANow #coleg

Senate Dems just passed the #InflationReductionAct , a transformational bill that will lower drug costs and jumpstart our transition to clean energy, all while reducing the deficit and fighting inflation. It's long past time to pass this in the House - lets get it done #copolitics

It has now been THREE WEEKS without a Speaker of the House. The Republicans' inability to govern is hurting Americans, our allies, and the future of our country. How much longer is this going to go on before they acknowledge the obvious? We need a bipartisan path forward.

The secret is out, Colorado is a great place to live — but our housing sector can't keep up. I spoke about ways to address this crisis with @DenverNewLibs and @Yimbyindenver last week. I fought for a spot on the Housing Subcommittee so I could work to find bipartisan solutions.

The Supreme Court's ruling in #WestVirginiaVsEPA is a travesty and obstructs the federal government's ability to prevent pollution and fight climate change. That's why we need leaders in Washington who will fight for climate legislation like those I've helped pass in Colorado.

Our Colorado renters deserve a transparent and dignified housing process. That's why I passed legislation limiting application fees, requiring a written reason for a denial, and limiting the extent to which a tenant's past credit history can be used to deny them. #copolitics

Our country has urgent needs that must be addressed. Instead, @HouseGOP are in disarray and preoccupied with infighting. They can’t even do the bare minimum like funding the government or agreeing on a leader. It's clear Republicans prioritize politics over the American people.

On what should have been the 51st celebration of Roe v. Wade, we gathered to protect access to abortion in our constitution & address barriers people continue to face in CO. Everyone should have the care they need, regardless of where they live, their type of job, or insurance.

Lived experience and representation matter. I'm proud to be one of the few working mothers in Congress. Working parents deserve representatives that understand their struggles—from juggling child care to the cost of living to education and health care.
