Colorado Open Letters

From a constituent in Denver, CO

Stop arming Israel

I am writing as your constituent to ask that you do everything in your power to press the Biden administration to suspend all weapons shipments to the Israeli military, and oppose all future military funding to Israel. The Israeli government has vowed to push forward with a large-scale military ope

Criticizing Israel is not Antisemitic

I am writing to you as a concerned member of our community regarding the weaponization of antisemitism in the discourse surrounding the ongoing conflict in the Middle East.

Antisemitism should never be used as a weapon

I am writing to you as a concerned member of our community regarding the weaponization of antisemitism in the discourse surrounding the ongoing conflict in the Middle East. Recent events, including the imminent invasion of Rafah, have once again brought international attention to the Israeli-Palesti

US stands at a Historical Precipice

I am writing to express my deep concern regarding the ongoing violence and human rights abuses in Gaza, particularly the role of U.S. support for Israel's actions. As a constituent, I urge you to take immediate action to address this critical issue. The recent escalation of violence in Gaza, as high

All eyes on Rafah. Stop funding Israel’s genocide.

I’m writing once again as your constituent to urge you to stop the madness in Gaza and to stand on the right side of history. The people of the United States overwhelmingly do not want our tax dollars to be given to the IDF with no strings attached. We will not stand by and do nothing as the innoc

AS one of YOUR VOTERS, I ASK YOU TO SIGN THIS PETITION! This regulation needs to come from the top! It is reckless to NOT have tested the impact of concentrates on humans prior to selling and the more drs are learning the more they are raising serious concerns.

From a constituent in Fort Collins, CO

I want to be clear: I will not be voting for you this November unless you stop the genocide in Gaza

Oppose KOSA

Please oppose the Kids Online Safety Act. This is yet another tool to limit LGBTQ children's access to important information about healthcare under the guise of protecting them.

Supreme Court term limits

It's time for term limits for the Supreme Court Justices. The court is completely out of step with the will of the American people, and the progress of civil society. There's no reason for lifetime appointments, especially in an age where people are living longer than ever. A ten or fifteen year

I implore you to NOT make THC sales legal, there is NOT ENOUGH REGULATION in those states that have legalized the sales of THC and our young adults and teens are getting a hold of this and mental illness is surfacing as a result… with zero help…. Please listen to this Dr who has been researching a

Dear Colorado Legislators: See below a message I sent to Senators Hickenlooper and Bennett and Representative Crow regarding a letter our Rep. Iman Jodeh sent to these gentlemen which does not correspond to our needs as her constituents. Recently you received a Letter from Representative Iman Jode

From a constituent in Aurora, CO

Recently you received a Letter from Representative Iman Jodeh stating that “the essential and sole focus of the United States should be to facilitate the immediate release… …and the passage of extensive humanitarian aid to the Gaza Strip” Please disregard this message from Rep. Jodeh. My husband a

Opposing the Antisemitism Awareness Act

I am writing first to thank Representative DeGette for voting against HR 6090. While it is important to stand against hate speech of all kinds, the sweeping definition of antisemitism contained in this bill only serves to stifle legitimate criticisms of and protests against the Israeli government’s

From a verified voter in Fort Collins, CO

House Bill 6090

Embarrassing that our Senators would rather vote yes on House Bill 6090 - the so-called "Antisemitism Awareness Act" than move to pass a ceasefire in Palestine and support Israel. This is a Freedom of Speech problem, a racist problem, and a war profiteering problem. We do not stand with Israel. The

Criticizing Israel is not antisemitic!

The proposed definitions of antisemitism risk conflating criticism of the Israeli government's policies with hatred towards the Jewish people as a whole. This overbreadth threatens to chill free speech and legitimate opposition to the Israeli government's actions. A well-constructed definition must

From a constituent in Littleton, CO

Anti-Zionism oppostion not anti-Semitism, allow campus free speech

The conflation of anti-Zionism with anti-Semitism perpetuated by groups like the European Union of Jewish Students (EUJS) is a dishonest tactic. Anti-Zionism is the opposition to the political ideology of Zionism, which is rooted in the dispossession and oppression of Palestinians. It has nothing to

Reallocate Defense Funds to Domestic Needs: Prioritize Citizens' Welfare

The recent allocation of $825 billion in the Defense Appropriations Act for FY 2024 raises questions about our national priorities. While it's commendable that the bill supports servicemembers and their families, and rejects discriminatory practices, it's concerning that such vast resources are dire

Take Action to Protect Women’s Health

Hi, I'm a constituent who lives in 80209. My name is Sandy. For efficiency’s sake I am drafting one text to both Senators and Diana DeGette. First, I want the Senator to support Ukraine aid when it comes up for a vote. Thank you Representative DeGette for supporting all the fund bills voted on

Gentlemen and Madam: Greetings from Tiny Teller County! Thank you, from the bottom of my heart for your service to the state of Colorado and this great nation. I’ve been paying attention to the work (or lack there of) being done in the House of Representatives. I don’t agree with the politics of

Mike Johnson

With the final passing of Ukraine aid the MAGA wing of the GOP are starting to call for the ouster of Mike Johnson. After the vote to remove McCarthy, the GOP tried to place the House chaos on the Dems because they voted together for McCarthy’s removal. This time the Dems should just stand asid

From a constituent in Fort Collins, CO

Since you won't stop funding Israel, I won't vote for you

I am deeply disappointed with your decision to send $26 billion to a country currently committing genocide. Words cannot express how furious I am. Since you're so determined to ignore your voters and abuse your power as an elected official, I will not be voting for you in the upcoming election.

Protect Small Businesses: Reconsider TikTok Ban for Economic Balance

The potential ban on the social media platform TikTok could have severe repercussions for small businesses. For instance, consider the case of a Texas-based clothing brand catering to tall women, which relies heavily on TikTok for reaching its target audience and generating sales. The loss of this p

End US Funding of Israeli Occupation: Prioritize Human Lives

The current situation in Gaza is alarming, with a significant number of child casualties and unprecedented danger faced by journalists, healthcare workers, and paramedics. The United States plays a role in this through its funding and arming of the Israeli occupation of Palestine. This support contr
