Last night didn't go the way I'd hoped, but I'm proud of every fight we took on together these last 30 years for reproductive rights, for our environment, and against Donald Trump. Thank you for the honor of a lifetime and congratulations to the next Congresswoman from Denver, Melat Kiros.

Congresswoman for CO's 1st District. Lifelong Denverite. Proud mom. Running to expand abortion access, environmental justice and opportunity in our community.
Good morning, Colorado - it's Election Day! To keep fighting back against Trump, RFK Jr., and their efforts to take away our rights, I need YOUR vote by 7PM tonight. Make sure you VOTE today!
Thank you to my dear colleague and fellow impeachment manager Jamie Raskin for your endorsement! Together, we will continue the fight against Trump and for the American people.
Passing my 21st Century Cures Act means those with chronic and rare diseases know their conditions are being researched for treatments and cures. I'm grateful for all the patients and advocates who helped me make this bill a reality!
Happy Pride, Denver! My team and I had a joyous time celebrating the progress of the LGBTQIA+ community yesterday, and we are resolved to stay in this fight until true equality has been achieved.
A huge THANK YOU to my fellow Progressive Caucus member and colleague Rep. Pramila Jayapal for your support in this race. Together, we will pass Medicare for All and make good on the promise that health care is a human right!
It was such a joy to be at Denver's Juneteenth parade with so many friends, and I was grateful for the opportunity to honor such an important day and all it represents.
Thank you, @degette5280.bsky.social, for your leadership of the reproductive freedom caucus and for fighting to repeal the Hyde amendment, which intentionally worsens barriers to abortion access.
I’m participating in a forum tonight with my opponents at the Denver Press Club, where the late Lynn Bartels was a cherished member. Lynn was an example for women in journalism, politics, and public service. I know I speak for many when I say she will be greatly missed.
🏳️🌈🏳️🌈🏳️🌈 I am proud to announce that Advocates for Trans Equality @transequality.bsky.social has endorsed me for re-election in CO-01! I believe that true equality includes the trans community, and that progress can only be made when we work together.
Gun violence harms thousands of Americans every year, including here in Denver - and I'll never stop fighting to end it. Thank you to @bradypac.bsky.social for your endorsement, and for standing with me in this fight.
Great to sit down with Colette Bordelon and Channel 7 to talk about how we fight Trump, pass Medicare for All, and build a stronger Colorado.
We're proud to endorse @degette5280.bsky.social for CO-1. A gun violence prevention champion who knows weapons of war don't belong on our streets, in schools, in grocery stores, places of worship, or anywhere we go - we need Diana in Congress to keep fighting for Coloradans and all of us!
Denver didn't build this fight overnight. I've been in the room when it mattered most: protecting your health care, rights and family. Now with democracy on the line, we can't afford to step back from the fight with Donald Trump. Fill out your ballot. Return it before June 30. The work continues.
My opponent has lied about me since she launched her campaign. I can't believe I have to say this, but it's an absolute lie that I or my campaign had anything to do with her venue cancellations. She’s free to make her own mistakes, and campaigning with an infamous anti-semite...
Fighting back against this administration to preserve and expand women's rights has never been more important. Proud to be doing this work alongside the National Organization of Women PAC.
Thank you to today's volunteer canvassing team, including LiUNA Local 720 who have always been there in this fight! Together, we're getting the word out about how I'm fighting back against Trump and preparing to pass Medicare for All into law. Your support is what makes this campaign possible!
Always love meeting with community members to hear about their concerns and ideas. So appreciative of everyone who came out to Cafecito at Bar 38 earlier today, and for your support in this election!
Extreme MAGA Republicans are calling for me to be hanged because I'm ready to fight back against the Trump administration and protect YOUR ballot access rights. They can't intimidate me - I'll stand up for you and against Trump EVERY SINGLE DAY.
Donald Trump wants YOUR sensitive voter information, and is threatening mail-in voting to get it. Here in Colorado, that won't stand.
I'm building a future that's affordable for all Coloradoans, and I'm proud to have the Western States Carpenters by my side in that work. Thank you for this endorsement!
They're working to ban abortion. They're coming for contraception. I'm fighting to stop them, and with your vote behind me that's exactly what we'll do.
On Wear Orange Day, stand with me against gun violence - and demand legislation that will save lives and stop this epidemic.
THRILLED to be endorsed by El Semanario, a publication with deep roots in our community. Your faith and trust means so much to me as I continue fighting for the working people of Denver.
I've opposed this illegal war in Iran since Day One. Today, a majority of House members agreed: Donald Trump must come before Congress and explain himself to the American people.
Despicable. This needs to be condemned in the strongest terms and each of us must stand against the rising tide of antisemitism.
Pro-Palestinian group at CU Boulder justifies Pearl Street firebombing, calls for killer’s release
A pro-Palestinian student group in Boulder said that the Pearl Street firebombing was justified, and called for the man who pleaded guilty to murdering an 82-year-old woman to be freed.

I’ve fought hard to protect our environment, especially from Donald Trump and this administration. I am so honored to be endorsed by the League of Conservation Voters. Thank you!
Happy Pride! Being part of the fight for LGBTQ+ equality is a year-round endeavor. This month, we celebrate!
This is about leadership. I'll pass Medicare for All and protect reproductive freedom.
You can never compromise your principles. But you can find ways to work together. Cancer research, and drug and device approval at the FDA, for example. That's the kind of work we need to do in a bipartisan way - but NEVER compromising our values or ideals.
