Yadira Caraveo last week, along with everyone who filled out my campaign’s Town Hall Issue Survey [[link removed]] .                                                                                                                                              
Hearing directly from Coloradans is a critical part of how I do my job. Hearing your thoughts, concerns, and questions — whether in person or online — makes a difference in how I take on the biggest issues facing our state.

We make progress by staying focused on the issues that matter most — and by electing public officials who are committed to doing the best for their constituents.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      
I’m working hard to make sure we elect and re-elect progressive champions across the country. I don’t accept a dime from corporate PACs or federal lobbyists, which makes your grassroots support now even more important.                                                                                                                                                                             
Will you chip in now to help protect our majority in the Senate and take back control of the House? Colorado deserves leadership who fights for them, not for special interests or shadowy super PACs. Even $10 makes a difference in this fight. [[link removed]]
