Trump vetoed a bipartisan bill that would provide clean, accessible drinking water to 50,000 Coloradans.
Our government promised this project sixty years ago. Trump broke that promise.
Congress needs to overturn his veto ASAP.

In the wealthiest country in the world, paying double or even triple for health insurance is mind-boggling. Republicans can still extend the ACA tax credits. It’s long overdue.

It’s clear as day: Trump is punishing Colorado for not voting for him.

Two days into the new year and Coloradans are grappling with rising health insurance costs.
Republicans chose not to work with us to extend the ACA subsidies. So we’re keeping the pressure up and fighting for the millions of folks who can’t afford these hikes.

Trump has turned his back on rural Colorado. He’s sold out ranchers by pushing foreign beef. He’s raised grocery costs with illegal tariffs. And he’s vetoed our bipartisan bill to finish the Arkansas Valley Conduit, denying clean water to 50,000 folks.
It’s unacceptable.

Just one day before it was set to close, Trump ordered the Craig Station coal plant to stay open.
His reckless retaliations will hike Coloradan’s electricity bills. All for political games.

This year, 24 million Americans will see the cost of their health care premiums double, triple, or even worse because of Republicans’ refusal to fix the health care crisis that they created.
Time is running out – extend the ACA subsidies NOW.

Rural communities will be left without clean drinking water because Trump is dead set on playing political games and punishing Colorado. It’s not right. And we’re fighting back.
Trump vetoes bipartisan bill to provide clean water to rural Colorado
The legislation to complete the Arkansas Valley Conduit passed Congress with unanimous support but was branded an ‘expensive and unreliable’ project by the President.

In 2025, we were able to save our public lands and fight back against Trump’s harmful agenda by standing together.
In 2026, we’re going to defend Colorado and help take back the Senate.

As a small business owner, I was fed up with a gridlocked bureaucracy and corporate interests getting their way while everyday folks got the short end of the stick. So I ran for public office.
But at my core, I’m still a geologist-turned-brewer. And a banjo player on occasion.

Building trust in politics isn’t an overnight task. But rejecting corporate PAC money – in campaigns like ours – should be a non-starter.

Health care premiums rising from $383 to $2,051 per month is absurd. Republicans made this nightmare a reality by gutting Medicaid and letting the ACA tax credits expire. Now, Coloradans are bracing for the worst.

Here’s the truth: Donald Trump is trying to strong-arm Colorado into releasing a convicted felon.
He’s destroying jobs, dismantling scientific research, and denying disaster relief for families who lost their homes to flooding and wildfires – it's beyond cruel.

Trump uprooted a mission-ready Space Command in Colorado Springs.
He’s dismantling a critical climate research lab in Boulder.
And he’s denying disaster relief for Coloradans reeling from floods and fires.
These attempts to strong arm our state are dangerous and un-American.

This is a fact: Republicans’ Big Bad Betrayal delivered the largest upward transfer of wealth in our nation’s history – from working families to the ultra-wealthy.
Colorado families are struggling to afford health care and groceries while Donald Trump and his allies get richer.
