"Win Georgia, save America" - Chairman Buck in GA

Chairman Buck spent the weekend campaigning in Georgia on behalf of our terrific GOP Senate candidates, Senator Perdue and Senator Loeffler. It's clear to the entire the nation that winning these two elections on January 5th is critical to the future of our free nation.

Georgia is our last chance to stop Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi from having the power and votes to pass costly, liberal priorities that would completely remake our country.

It's simple. Win Georgia, save America.

The Colorado GOP understands just how critical this election is for our country. If you are interested in stopping Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi in Georgia, please sign up below to help Senator Perdue and Senator Loeffler keep Georgia RED.

Lamborn Says Colorado Is Still The Best Home For Space Command As The Search For A Permanent HQ Continues

Colorado Public Radio: In an interview with Colorado Matters, Rep. Doug Lamborn — who represents Colorado Springs — said the DOD would be making visits to the six locations on the final list throughout this month ahead of the final announcement. Peterson currently serves as the temporary HQ and will continue to do so for the next six years even if the final location is moved elsewhere.

“I think we have a better shot than anyone else out there” of securing the permanent headquarters," Lamborn said. “But we can’t let our guard down. We have to keep pushing hard.”

He said that he and the entire Colorado congressional delegation and other state officials have been working in the effort to secure Space Command headquarters.

“When you add it all together, that’s huge for Colorado,” he said. “Think of the money from that — that would go into income tax collections to go into our state education system for instance, or property taxes to support schools. That would be so huge.”

Colorado Congressman Ken Buck Requests Special Counsel To Investigate Hunter Biden

CBS Denver: Rep. Ken Buck, a Republican who represents Colorado’s 4th Congressional District, is calling on the Department of Justice to appoint a special counsel to investigate the son of President-elect Joe Biden. In a letter to Attorney General William Barr, Buck raises questions about Hunter Biden’s role on the board of a Ukrainian energy company when his dad was vice president.

“This investigation is critical to defending the integrity of our Republic and ensuring a potential Biden Administration will not be the subject of undue foreign interference,” Buck writes. “Americans have the right to know whether Mr. Biden’s reported ties to foreign governments will make him the subject of blackmail attempts or other nefarious efforts to undermine U.S. national security or otherwise improperly influence American foreign policy.”

From The Western Slope To Capitol Hill: Rep-Elect Lauren Boebert Prepares For Her New Job

Colorado Public Radio: Walking to the rotunda in the Cannon House Office Building, incoming Rep. Lauren Boebert said she’s trying to share her experience in Washington with her four sons back in Rifle.

“I FaceTime my kids just about every day. I take them on walks with me. I show them the Capitol buildings and we talk about the different areas we’re passing through. They’re very excited,” she said.

The Western Slope Republican has spent the past few weeks in new member orientation, a rite of passage that is often their first real taste of being a member of Congress. It covers everything from the practical (like how to sponsor and advance a bill) to the mundane (figuring out the maze of hallways and tunnels that make up the U.S. Capitol complex) to the fun (like mingling with the other incoming freshmen).
