I’m running for the U.S. Senate so the people who built Colorado can take back control of our healthcare, our homes, and our futures.
Working people built Colorado, we deserve a government that finally works for us.

Woke up this morning with this thought:
In this turbulence, what all communities and workplaces need are people with the insights and experience of going through other times of great change.
And so I wrote this. The only thing that will get in the way? #Ageism

This is probably the best #Boycott advice I've seen on social. And worth reading for those in the U.S. as we head toward February 28.

This is what we’ve been doing in Canada. Boycott it all.
Calling stores, corporate offices & asking why they aren’t doing anything, telling them why we won’t buy their products.
If a business is making zero effort in the buy Canadian movement/elusive/lying about product origin…we shop elsewhere.

Have had a hectic week in my day work, you know, slaying the #Ageism dragon.
So have missed some of the current news, including #Musk and #Doge requesting the #FederalEmployees detailing their accomplishments. Really?
I asked my friends at #ChatGPT for some ideas.

My congressional representative Jeff Hurd was a no-show at the Town Hall citizens called in CD #3.
Little cat was disturbed to learn of this.
Musk's cuts will devastate rural communities.
She—along with many CD3 constituents—feels UnHurd!
