Today, we passed another War Powers Resolution to end Donald Trump’s illegal war in Iran. This reckless war of choice has made life in America less affordable and less safe. Only 4 Republicans voted with us. The rest voted for more forever wars and higher prices.

The American people are tired of Trump’s illegal war with Iran. Costs are rising, and troops are being killed – this has gone too far, and it must end NOW.

I just voted NO on the annual defense spending bill. The bill allocates $1.15 trillion of our taxpayer dollars to continue paying for Trump’s illegal war. As costs skyrocket here at home, House Republicans are choosing to leave America behind and bankroll more forever wars.

(1/2) House Republicans just forced through their short term plan to fund the government past the midterm elections. Their funding bill had no input from Congressional Democrats and leaves open the door for providing even more money to Border Patrol.

In Colorado and western states, we are experiencing a chronic water shortage. Data centers use millions of gallons of water to operate. As we manage data centers popping up everywhere, water usage needs to be a forethought, not an afterthought. youtube.com/shorts/wlaRF...

Water usage needs to be a forethought, not an afterthought.

The U.S. has the highest maternal mortality rate among developed nations globally. That’s why I’m proud to once again support a bill that’s a crucial part of the Momnibus Act and will help us save moms’ lives, especially Black moms.

(1/2) Today, the House passed my bill, the DeOndra Dixon INCLUDE Project Act. This bipartisan bill is critical — it will boost research and accelerate our understanding of Down syndrome and many co-occurring conditions.

(1/2) Last night, Donald Trump once again aired his lies and grievances about the 2020 election, which he lost. He touted his so-called booming economy, which is crushing Americans with skyrocketing costs.

(1/2) Today, House Republicans once again forced through Trump’s anti-democratic bill, the SAVE Act. I voted HELL NO once again.

(1/3) With everything going on right now–a rogue and lethal ICE agency, an affordability crisis, and an illegal war with Iran–House Republicans just jammed through a bill to make Daylight Savings Time permanent.   The American public is divided on this – from farmers to educators and even the

(1/2) BREAKING: I just introduced bipartisan legislation that would help eradicate hepatitis C in the U.S. If the Cure Hepatitis C Act becomes law, it would have the greatest positive impact to public health of any legislation passed this Congress.

My official response to Trump notifying Congress of more attacks against Iran: No.

(1/2) Despite Trump’s stubborn refusal to sign it, the historic housing bill we passed out of Congress with broad bipartisan support is now law. This generational investment will make housing more affordable for families in Denver and across the country.

(1/2) First, Trump eviscerated the FEC. Now, he’s cleaned house at the bipartisan Election Assistance Commission. On top of all this, he is hell bent on jamming the voter-suppressing SAVE Act through Congress.

(1/2) Congress passed a War Powers Resolution to stop Trump’s illegal war with Iran. Despite the pomp & circumstance for the so-called peace agreement signing, Trump has forced us back into conflict.

Donald Trump carelessly called Japan the “Islamic Republic of Japan” and accused them of attacking us. This isn’t a slip up that can be ignored. We remain committed to our alliance with the people of Japan.

For 250 years, our democracy has endured through times of peace and times of struggle. And it’s up to all of us to continue working toward the promise of our country—where there’s freedom and justice for all—for the next 250 years and beyond. Happy 250th, America. 🇺🇸

(1/2) Although SCOTUS upheld birthright citizenship, we cannot overlook its despicable decision to greenlight bigotry against a vulnerable population and allow dark money to flood our politics.

The Supreme Court has affirmed what we all know: birthright citizenship is a Constitutional right. For Trump to nullify the citizenship of countless Americans was an illegal attempt to destroy the promise of what it is to be an American, and he lost.

ICE is a rogue agency. They’ve killed U.S. citizens, kidnapped people off the streets, and terrorized neighborhoods in Denver and across the country. While Republicans keep giving ICE billions of dollars, I’m fighting to abolish ICE and stop Trump’s cruel and discriminatory immigration agenda.

Trump has waged an anti-democratic war against mail-in ballots, putting voters in states like Colorado at risk of losing their voice in elections. I’ve repeatedly urged that fighting back against Trump’s cruel and corrupt agenda requires Congress, the courts, and citizens.

BREAKING: The Supreme Court rules states can count late-arriving mailed ballots, rejecting a challenge led by the Trump administration.

11 years later and, despite the bigotry, love still wins. #ObergefellVHodges

(1/2) BREAKING: My bill with Rep. Joyce, the Medicare Advantage Cost Transparency Act, has been advanced out of the @energycommerce.bsky.social Health Subcommittee!

Donald Trump & and his GOP allies don’t really care about eliminating waste, fraud and abuse in health care. While Trump claims to be cracking down on fraud, he’s commuting prison sentences for his friends and donors who were convicted of fraud.

SCOTUS just struck down a law that required firearm owners to get permission to bring weapons into private shops and businesses open to the public. This decision is dangerous and strips away commonsense gun safety regulation from legislators. Americans deserve to be safe in public.

Since the disastrous Dobbs decision four years ago, millions of women across this country no longer have the freedom to make their own health care decisions. This is wrong. And it’s why we’re fighting to protect our rights.

When there’s a pro-choice majority in the House, one of the first bills we pass will protect abortion access. I won’t stop fighting until all 50 states allow patients to access the care they need.

As the co-chair of the @reprocaucus.bsky.social, our sole mission is to restore and protect reproductive freedom.    We won’t stop fighting until everyone has it.

Donald Trump is refusing to sign a generational housing bill I voted for three times that would lead to more homes being built and more cost savings for Americans. He doesn’t care about lowering costs or making life easier for you.

Four years ago, the Supreme Court stripped away the right to abortion care. Since the Dobbs decision, at least 12 women have died and millions more have been harmed. As co-chair of the @reprocaucus.bsky.social, I won’t stop fighting until all Americans can make their own health care decisions.
