This morning, I toured Community Reach's 24/7 Walk-In Crisis Center in Thornton to learn more about the lifesaving mental health services they provide at no cost.

If you or someone you know is in crisis, there is help. You can reach the 24/7 crisis center at 303-853-3800 or walk in. #CO08

Trump’s push to dismantle the Department of Education is alarming. In Congress, I’ll fight to ensure Colorado kids and teachers have the resources they need to thrive.

Honored to receive the American Council of Engineering Companies (ACEC) of Colorado Legacy Award! This year, we collaborated on my law to build more housing that middle class families can afford. Thank you for your work to lower costs for Coloradans! #CO08

Loved joining a bipartisan panel of legislators with the CO Solar & Storage Assoc.

We need cheap, reliable energy, but Gabe Evans voted to take a wrecking ball to #CO08's clean energy sector – killing jobs & risking higher utility bills.

I"ll always protect jobs & work to lower utility costs.

Colorado families are facing a 200% health insurance premium increase. Unlike Gabe Evans, I will work tirelessly to lower costs – not make things worse. #CO08

Thank you to the Central Adams Retired Educators for having me to talk about our state budget, keeping kids safe in school & more!

I'm grateful for these retired educators, who stay involved to ensure every kid gets a great education & that teachers have the resources they need. #CO08

Happy Veterans Day and thank you to all who have served. Freedom isn't free and today we honor the bravery and selflessness of all of America's veterans.

I stopped by the Adams County Veterans Memorial to honor our vets and the service of my stepdad, who served in the Marines in Vietnam.

By learning about the history of #CO08 communities, I'm gaining a greater understanding of how best to serve you.

I loved visiting with the Commerce City Historical Society & hearing about their work promoting the city's history – check out their museum and preservation efforts!

Took part in Commerce City Council Member At-Large Charles Dukes’ office hours where residents shared thoughts on transportation funding, job opportunities, bringing down housing costs, economic development, and ensuring our representatives continue to look out for Commerce City.

I know how important homeownership is to achieving the American dream & I'm honored that the Colorado Association of Realtors named me a Legislator of the Year!

This year, I passed a law to remove red tape & create more housing that middle-income buyers can afford. I'll keep working to lower costs.

Honored to have the endorsement of Elect Democratic Women, a political organization led by Democratic women Members of Congress!

I'm excited to join the women of the House Democratic Caucus to lower costs, protect healthcare, and fight for our Colorado values. #CO08

What a treat to join the Commerce City PD's Día de los Muertos celebration last night!

I loved seeing these talented kids perform and it's always great to see Adelante Community Development providing important resources to neighbors. Thank you for bringing the community together! #CO08

It's day 30 of the government shutdown and SNAP benefits stop on Saturday, putting tens of thousands of Coloradans in danger of going hungry. Meanwhile, Gabe Evans is MIA.

I voted today to put more of our state dollars towards food assistance. Please donate to a local food bank if you can. #CO08

October is Plasma Awareness Month, and I loved touring CSL Plasma in Northglenn yesterday to learn more about the lifesaving work they do and hear stories from donors and patients.

Plasma donations save lives – thank you to everyone who gives! #CO08

The federal gov't is shut down, but kids can still receive meals at schools.

I joined Lt. Gov. Dianne Primavera at an Adams 12 elementary school in Westminster today to discuss school meals w/ teachers, administrators & kids.

The future looks bright with these impressive kids leading the way!

Enjoyed joining my colleagues and Poudre Valley REA today to learn about their work to prevent wildfires. Their work to ensure reliability and to keep utility rates affordable is commendable.

I know that recent utility rate increases have been painful. I'll continue to work to bring costs down.

Wishing our #CO08 community a Happy Diwali! May your Festival of Lights be joyous and prosperous.

I loved seeing so many familiar faces at No Kings in Northglenn who are standing up for our constitution & ready to fire Gabe Evans!

Gabe has voted 100% with Trump & stayed silent as he rips away crucial funding from our district. Next November, we'll send him packing. #CO08

I loved touring Faris Machinery's Commerce City location yesterday and learning more about the issues facing Colorado's equipment distributors, as well as their partnership with the Community College of Aurora to provide trade education and job opportunities.

Thank you for having me! #CO08

Thanks to you, we had another strong fundraising quarter!

Together, we’ll flip #CO08 and lower costs, expand healthcare, and protect our Colorado way of life.

The 2,500 members of Amalgamated Transit Union Local 1001 keep our region moving. I'm honored to have their support!

“Shannon has consistently fought for better roads and transit and to increase public safety resources to keep transit operators safe. ATU Local 1001 is honored to support her.” #CO08

Thank you to everyone who came to our recent meet & greets in Sherrelwood and Westminster! I loved hearing your ideas on how we can work together to lower the cost of goods, health care & housing.

Your feedback is the cornerstone of this campaign, and together, we'll flip #CO08 from red to blue.

Great meeting with the Northern Colorado Veteran Resource Center in Greeley to learn more about their incredible work supporting veterans!

More than 36,000 vets call #CO08 home and I'm looking forward to continuing to support our veterans and military families in Congress.

I had a wonderful time attending the Greeley-Centennial Rotary Lunch Bunch meeting this week! It was great meeting with members and hearing about all the incredible work the club is doing to build community and make a difference in #CO08

I had the pleasure of meeting with United Way of Weld County yesterday to learn about the tremendous work they’re doing to support families through their programs. Their dedication to improving lives across Weld County is truly inspiring. Check out Weld Project Connect next week!
