Hardworking Coloradans were promised lower costs "on day one." Trump's #tarifftaxes – which are now the highest they’ve been in nearly a century – will hit Colorado families with $2,400 in higher costs this year. #COPolitics www.denverpost.com/2025/08/12/b...

Trump’s #tarifftaxes will raise Colorado families’ expenses by $2,400/year. That completely wipes out any benefit the bottom 40% of taxpayers might see from the GOP budget and tax scheme, and nearly wipes out any benefit for another 40% on top of that. #COPolitics

We grow our economy by raising incomes and lowering costs for Coloradans. Trump's tariff taxes push costs higher. Colorado families are already squeezed paying more for groceries, healthcare and housing. This isn’t a tax on other countries. It’s a tax on hardworking Coloradans. #COPolitics

Our economy grows when hardworking Coloradans' incomes go up and the costs for basics-groceries, housing & more-go down. Trump’s tariffs taxes are just raising prices and creating chaos. The chaos makes it impossible for businesses to plan and families to make ends meet. #TariffsTaxes #COPolitics

Colorado can't afford to fall behind in attracting clean energy investment and the good-paying jobs that come with it. Losing clean energy tax credits means losing these jobs to other states or countries. #COPolitics #CleanEnergy coloradosun.com/2025/06/25/c...

Trump’s #tarifftaxes will raise expenses for Colorado families by $3,600/year. That completely wipes out any benefit the bottom 40% of taxpayers might see from the GOP budget and tax scheme, and nearly wipes out any benefit for another 40% on top of that. #COPolitics itep.org/analysis-of-...

We need to grow our economy by raising incomes and lowering costs for Coloradans. Trump's #tarifftaxes push costs higher. Colorado families are already squeezed paying more for groceries, healthcare and housing. This isn’t a tax on other countries: it’s a tax on hardworking Coloradans. #COPolitics

Trump #tariffstaxes mean higher prices on groceries, clothes & more. The GOP budget makes healthcare & groceries more expensive by gutting Medicaid & food assistance to pay for more tax breaks for billionaires & corporations. A one-two punch making life worse for hardworking Coloradans. #COPolitics

🚨Medicaid supports thousands of hardworking Coloradans. Cutting Medicaid isn't about cutting waste, fraud & abuse. The proposed cuts will put families in medical debt, strain our hospitals and hurt our economy. #COPolitics #Medicaid #medicaidsavesourlives apnews.com/article/trum...

The "big, beautiful bill" is a big, bad deal for Colorado and our clinics and hospitals. #COPolitics #MedicaidMatters www.denverpost.com/2025/06/22/c...

The assault on Medicaid is just one big, bad part of the GOP majorities’ “big, beautiful” budget and tax scheme. It eliminates a tax credit making healthcare more affordable, so hardworking Colorado families could see their healthcare premiums spike #COPolitics www.denverpost.com/2025/06/15/m...

Colorado's outdoor economy is vital, supporting thousands of jobs and families. Our public lands are essential to that: they power our local economies through incredible recreation opportunities. #COPolitics #ProtectPublicLands www.denverpost.com/2025/06/12/c...

Hardworking Coloradans are already burdened by rising healthcare costs. The GOP’s budget & tax scheme will make it worse. It slashes Medicaid for 120,000 or more Coloradans. It spikes ACA premiums $1,500/yr. We need affordable care, not higher costs. #COPolitics www.thirdway.org/memo/republi...
