Friend,
Yesterday, I announced my campaign for Colorado’s 8th Congressional District, one of our country’s most competitive seats.
Today, I want to explain why I decided to run.
This is personal for me. My sister has severe developmental disabilities and has required life-sustaining support, provided by Medicaid, for much of her life.
It is abhorrent that our current Congressman, Gabe Evans, voted for Trump’s bill that will gut Medicaid. This bill would hurt tens of thousands of folks in this district and millions of others, including people like my sister, all just to give the ultra-wealthy another round of tax breaks.
Gabe Evans has also supported President Trump’s absurd and damaging tariff policies, which have only added more financial stress to the lives of Colorado’s working families.
Colorado’s 8th District doesn’t have to accept this. That’s why I’m running to hold Gabe Evans accountable for consistently voting against our working families in favor of the rich and powerful. If you’re with me, join my campaign today as a Founding Donor. >>
Whether as a teacher, state representative, union president, or Colorado’s state treasurer, I’m a proven leader who knows how to bring people together and get things done.
Unlike Gabe Evans, I will fight to protect and strengthen Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security against the current administration. CO-08 deserves a leader who will support our small businesses, protect our rights, and deliver the results our communities need.
I’ve spent my life making government work better for people, and I’m ready to bring that same energy and experience to Washington. Friend, I’d love to have you with me, join my campaign as a Founding Donor today. >>
