Our small businesses are footing the bill for Trump’s reckless and illegal tariff-taxes. coloradosun.com/2025/12/15/c...

Folks on both sides of the aisle recognize that NCAR’s work is critical to agriculture, public safety, and so much more. We will continue to use every tool at our disposal to fight back.

In Trump’s economy, families are spending less on Christmas gifts this year and getting less for the money they do spend.

Another example of Colorado blazing the trail. Now release and expunge records for everyone who was charged with federal marijuana crimes – and let's pass our bill to prepare us for federal legalization while we're at it.

This is welcome news — and should have happened months ago. ICE should not be holding people for months without hearings and basic due process.

It’s officially winter, Colorado!

This isn’t a game. These are people’s lives. Coloradans are trying to rebuild their lives after fires and floods destroyed homes and communities across our state. Trump’s decision to reject our disaster requests and withhold resources as our communities continue to recover is unacceptable.

Republicans continue to turn their backs on Americans and refuse to address the health care crisis.  We’ve been fighting for affordable and accessible health care all year – and won’t stop now. Read more in our Giddy Up-Date newsletter:  senatorhickenlooper.substack.com/p/republican...

We just left the ICE facility in Aurora where we met with two young sisters who are seeking asylum and being held there. Here’s my readout on the cruelty we witnessed today:

Trump is a vengeful bully, and he’s taking it out on Colorado. Dismantling NCAR and canceling millions in transportation and energy grants is indefensible – and we won’t stand by and watch it happen.

First they stonewalled. Then they dragged their feet. Now, they’re blowing past our law’s deadline to release all the files. Just release ALL the files already. x.com/sencortezmas...

Jeanette has been detained for nine months without a bond hearing until today.  ICE cannot continue to throw due process to the wind.

Certainly, if there was nothing wrong or illegal, releasing the video would just clear it up for everyone. Right?

Extreme winds are expected again today across the foothills. Thousands have already lost power and the wildfire risk is dangerously high. Stay safe and informed. More information here 👉

Enough is enough. @bennet.senate.gov and I are holding up the appropriations package to demand full funding for NCAR. Trump is attacking Colorado because we refuse to bend to his corrupt administration. As his rampage continues, we will pull every lever available to do what is right for Colorado.

Reminder: T-minus one day until Trump is legally required to release the Epstein files.

Right before the holidays, Republicans keep looking for sneaky ways to sell off our public lands and national parks – this time as an amendment to the Interior appropriations bill. We stopped them before, and we’re ready to do it again. OUR PUBLIC LANDS ARE NOT FOR SALE.

Grateful for all the brave emergency responders who sprang into action overnight to manage the fires in Yuma County due to the extreme wind. www.denver7.com/wildfire-in-...

The Trump admin’s reckless announcement yesterday to gut NCAR would halt this vital climate data and put our communities in even more risk.

BREAKING: The House will now force a vote to extend the ACA enhanced premium tax credits. Mike Johnson needs to bring it for a vote immediately, and the Senate should follow.

The Trump admin knew what they were doing when they nominated Steve Pearce, a proud advocate for selling off our public lands. Our public lands are NEVER for sale. I’m a NO on Steve Pearce.

Unemployment is exploding under Trump, yet he gives himself an “A+++++” on his handling of the economy?!? His delusions couldn’t be further from the reality of working people.

This weekend marked three years since our Respect for Marriage Act became law, protecting marriage equality across the country.   We fought for this progress, and we’ll always stand with our LGBTQ+ community 🏳️‍🌈

A heartless, morally corrupt response from Trump. Truly disgusting.

The Trump administration is seemingly doing everything they can to decimate our tourism industry, which many of our rural communities rely on. www.nbcnews.com/politics/tru...

LET’S GO! The Broncos are headed to the playoffs!

Happy Hanukkah to our Jewish community in Colorado and around the world!

Appalled by the antisemitic attack at a Hanukkah event in Australia. Antisemitism, hatred, and violence must be unequivocally condemned wherever they occur.

As our nation reels from the shooting at Brown University last night, today marks 13 years since the horrific massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary School. We hold the victims and survivors in our hearts today. (1/2)

Unconscionable. Right before Christmas, Trump is cutting 35,000 health care positions that focus solely on our veterans. Is this how we repay our veterans for their sacrifices? With longer wait times and fewer providers?

Americans want high-quality health care that’s affordable and accessible. Republicans turned their backs on working families yesterday when they voted to hike health care premiums for millions.  We’ll keep fighting until we get to universal health care.

Trump’s tariffs are the worst Christmas gift ever.

Trump has exactly one week from now to release the Epstein files. The American people deserve full transparency.

Look! Felons helping felons.

Once again, Trump and Republicans turned their backs and denied working families affordable health care after THEY created a health care crisis and increased prices with their Big Bad Betrayal Act this summer.   We won’t stop fighting until every American receives the health care they deserve.

How long is Trump going to ask working families to pay the price for his disaster of an economy?

I’ll be voting YES to extend the ACA enhanced premium tax credits so working families aren’t slammed by health care price hikes. youtube.com/shorts/cz7Xj...

I had the opportunity to speak at a naturalization ceremony in Denver a few weeks ago. You could feel the excitement and pride in the room from our newest U.S. citizens.  (1/2) www.nbcnews.com/politics/pol...

Health care should be a right, not a privilege. That shouldn’t be a hot take in the wealthiest country in the history of the world.

Earlier this year, the Trump admin tried to sell off our public lands. I fought back, and we stopped them in their tracks. Trump’s pick to lead the BLM, Steve Pearce, wants to resurrect that idea. OUR PUBLIC LANDS ARE NOT FOR SALE.

Trump’s economy, everyone! Grocery prices are exploding, but the White House gets a $300M ballroom.

As a former small business owner, I know firsthand the work it takes to make payroll. Between his illegal tariffs and rising costs, Trump’s economy is forcing many of our small businesses to lay off staff or close their doors. That means higher prices and fewer jobs for Americans.

This is ruthless and amoral. We’ve been sounding the alarm for months on the Trump admin gutting our immigration courts. It’s clear Trump is doing all he can to further strain court proceedings and restrict due process. www.politico.com/news/2025/12...

Colorado families deserve affordable and accessible health care. Yet, Republicans are about to let monthly premiums skyrocket for millions of Americans. I’m voting this week to extend the ACA enhanced premium tax credits and keep health care costs low for working families.

ICE agents are separating families. Armed, masked individuals in civilian clothes are pulling people off the street and into unmarked vans. All this with zero transparency or accountability. This week we launched an inquiry into ICE’s unlawful obstruction of congressional oversight. We need answers.

Trump’s tariff-taxes are stifling American manufacturing and costing jobs.

If it walks like a duck…  Steve Pearce has advocated for selling off our public lands. He should be nowhere near the Bureau of Land Management, the agency that oversees our federal lands. www.coloradopolitics.com/2025/12/04/c...

The U.S. has seen massive job cuts this year, the most since the end of Trump's last term. Notice a common thread? We need to get back to creating jobs and lowering costs.

Millions of families, including mine, have welcomed miracles into their lives through IVF. Our service members should have the freedom to decide when and how to have a family without MAGA Republicans trying to restrict that access.

In the coming days, the Senate will take a vote to extend the ACA enhanced premium tax credits. Every Senator will go on the record on whether they support low health care costs for you and your family.
