Vote NO on the SAVE act. It disenfranchises millions of voters and is blatantly illegal. You cannot support it.

Do not let the GOP disenfranchise millions of voters, including women who took their husband's name. You must vote against the SAVE act.

speak out against the Trump administration attack on students and immigrants

Please speak out against the Trump administration’s attack on students and immigrants. DHS just arrested Columbia student activist Mahmoud Khalil — a lawful permanent resident — inside his own building. His wife is eight months pregnant. DHS and Trump do NOT have the power to revoke a green card

Mahmoud Kahlil

I’m extremely concerned by the illegal ICE arrest of green card holder and nonviolent protester Mahmoud Kahlil. No one should have their citizen status revoked for using their first amendment right. Protesting the genocide in Gaza is not a pro-terrorism stance nor is it a threat to anyone. The fact

ICE perpetrating humanitarian crimes - attorneys being punished

These are humanitarian crimes perpetrated by the US government. Please increase all efforts to stop them, and to stop ICE raids on everyone.

Maintain crucial Public Service Loan Forgiveness program commitments

The Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF) program is crucial for dedicated public servants who have sacrificed higher-paying private sector jobs to serve their communities. Eliminating this program would upend the lives of millions who have spent years working toward loan forgiveness in good faith.

PROTECT WOMEN IN SPORTS

There is so much I want to unpack here, but I’ll leave it to one subject at a time. This one is tied to trans rights. I am a friend of the LGBTQ+ community. I have friends who are gay, and I have friends whose kids are trans. I believe that you are you. You should have a choice on who you love, who

Stop Tariffs with CAN and MX

The decision to impose 25% tariffs on imports from Canada and Mexico is counterproductive and will likely harm American consumers and businesses. These close trading partners are not the source of illegal drug flows into the United States, and punitive tariffs will only increase costs for American c

I assume you understand that Trump’s threats to deny funding to universities that allow protests is a violation of the First Amendment of the Constitution? Or has the Orange Fascist and his handlers, Putin and Musk, rescinded it yet? What are you planning to do to protect our rights? Or will you c

Protect Social Security staff, benefits for vulnerable Americans

Steadfast Support for Ukraine's Self-Determination Against Russian Aggression

The United States should stand firmly with our ally Ukraine in the face of Russian aggression and reject any attempts to coerce Ukraine into territorial concessions or abandoning its NATO aspirations.

We are in the most dangerous time in our nation's history. I implore you to find a U S Attorney to file Treason charges against President Donald Trump and Vice President J D Vance.

Vote no for English as official language

English should not be designated as the ONLY official language since it was the language of the colonizers.

As a fellow mom, I deeply appreciate you flying to DC with your infant to cast a vote. It's ridiculous you can't vote from home when you've just given birth, but you showed great care and tenacity. As one of the very few Democrats in Teller County, I thank you for representing me.

Stop Trump NOW

Trump and Vance are disgusting. They're meeting with Zelenskyy today was egregious. For the gutting of the government and all of the illegal executive orders Trump deserves to be impeached.

Trump is an absolute embarrassment and disgrace to our country and has made me ashamed to be an American. The way he treated Zelensky today was a total embarrassment. Trump is a Russian asset and needs to be removed from office immediately.

DOGE is illegal and ineffective

Rein in Elon Musk's undue influence over federal agencies

I am writing as a registered voter in the state of Colorado to oppose any and all involvement of Elon Musk and the DOGE in our government. Elon is not an elected official.
