Enough is enough. No student should fear for their life at school. Change starts now.

Shout out to my Dad, may he Rest In Peace, who taught me how to work hard. And I almost got the quote right ...

Private prisons should be banned. Private prisons are a failure for communities, detainees, and the justice system. You can read my Guest Opinion here:

It’s been 3 years since Roe was overturned—and the attacks on reproductive rights haven’t stopped. As Colorado’s next AG, I’ll defend the law, protect access to abortion, and ensure that no one’s personal health decisions are up for political debate.

The targeted attacks in Minnesota are devastating, and I'm praying for everyone impacted. We've seen the dangerous rise of political violence all over the country, including here in Colorado. We must come together to reject political violence everywhere—full stop.

Honored to have the endorsement of District Attorney Brian Mason. We’ve worked together to take on gun violence, fentanyl, and human trafficking—and we share a deep commitment to justice and public safety. Grateful to have his support in our campaign for Attorney General.

Humbled to have the support of over 90 leaders from across Colorado — including DAs, sheriffs, mayors, legislators, and community champions. These endorsements reflect our shared belief in justice, safety, and protecting the rights of every Coloradan. Let’s get to work.

THIS WEEK on our Colorado Politics Podcast; the first official candidate for Colorado Attorney General in 2026 @mdoughertyco.bsky.social joins us to talk fighting the Musk/Trump regime, getting in early, healing a community after a tragedy, and so much more. #copolitics #colorado

1/2 The detention of Jeanette Vizguerra not only raises significant due process concerns, it tears communities apart while doing nothing to make Colorado safer. The Trump administration promised to prioritize public safety in immigration enforcement, instead, they’re going after political opponents

Had a great time on the @getmoresmarter.com podcast with Ian Silverii and @jasonbane.bsky.social talking about my campaign for Colorado Attorney General, the importance of protecting our communities, and why experience matters. Give it a listen! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

I rallied with veterans at the Colorado State Capitol today. Veterans deserve Leaders who will show up and fight for them. Trump and Musk’s attacks and cuts on services for our Veterans are terrible — I’ll always stand up for those who defended us. We should honor and support their service, always.

Thank you to the over 200 supporters who joined us for our campaign kickoff this weekend! It was an incredible night filled with energy, vision, and community. We’re grateful to have so many leaders standing with us as we build a safer, stronger future for all Coloradans.

I’m proud to launch my campaign with the endorsement of over 50 Colorado leaders, including Mayors, District Attorneys, State Representatives and community leaders from every corner of Colorado. We’ve got a ton of momentum, and we’re just getting started.

I’m Michael Dougherty, and I’m running for Colorado Attorney General. I’m running to keep our communities safe, protect your rights, and fight and win the most important battles against Donald Trump and Elon Musk. The fight starts now. Learn more about our campaign + join us: www.michaelforag.com
