All workers deserve the right to fair wages, health care, and a secure retirement - that's why I've shown up at the picket lines with Safeway workers represented by UFCW. And I'll keep doing so and standing with those workers in their fight to receive fair compensation.

My heart is with the families of the victims, I am pulling for Senator Hoffman and his wife, and know that Speaker Hortman and her husband's memories will live on as a blessing. Politically motivated violence is a threat to our republic and perpetrators of it must face justice.

Protecting Coloradans and all Americans from hate crimes and antisemitic attacks like that on Sunday is not a partisan issue. It's an America issue, and we all need to do our part to ensure that our nation is one where no one is targeted because of who they are.
