Lauren Boebert - Proudly Serving the 3rd District Of Colorado
I
had a great week working hard in Congress and back home in the District.
I'm grateful to be your voice in committee meetings and on the House
Floor, protecting you against radical leftist policies that would
crush our rural way of life. Here's what I've been working on:
**Bringing Attention to the Crisis at the Southern Border**
I couldn't
let President Biden get away with not mentioning the crisis he
created at the Southern Border during his address to Congress, so I forced
the media to cover it by wearing the same kind of Mylar blanket that
the Biden administration is giving to the record-setting 18,000
unaccompanied minors that came over the border last month. When children are
sleeping in tin foil blankets, that's a crisis.

Biden's lack of leadership is disappointing, and I will continue to hold
him accountable. Instead of developing a real plan, he punted
responsibility to his Vice President, who hasn't even visited the border in the
nearly 40 days since she was appointed "border czar." The crisis so
bad, that they won't even let the media visit the border. Since Biden,
Harris, and the media won't visit the border to see the situation
firsthand, I brought it to them.
I will continue to stand for *real*
leadership, *real* policies that work, and *real* accountability. It's
time to restart construction on the wall, demand that Biden and Harris
visit the border, and put a stop to amnesty and other policies that
incentivize this crisis.
**Protecting Energy and Natural
Resources Jobs**
During this week's Natural Resources Committee markup, I
stood up for rural Colorado's natural resources and energy workers.
While the left would rather outsource our mining overseas, I want to
keep these good-paying jobs and environmentally conscious mining
operations here. I introduced an amendment to a Democrat anti-mining bill to
require the government to ensure that slave labor isn't increased if we
outsource critical mineral mining to the Congo, China, and other
countries that lack the basic protections that we have in
America.
Additionally, I introduced an amendment to nullify President Biden's
job-killing Green New Deal executive orders that halt oil and gas leasing
on federal lands.
**Expanding the Second Amendment**
I was
proud to co-sponsor Congressman Thomas Massie's SAFER Voter Act, or the
Second Amendment For Every Registrable Voter Act, since I believe
that if you are old enough to vote, be drafted into the military, and be
treated as an adult, you are old enough to own a handgun. The bill
would reduce the minimum age at which a person can obtain a handgun from
a federal firearms licensed dealer from 21 to 18.
**Opposing a
Liberal Takeover of the Bureau of Land Management**
Along with
Chairman of the Freedom Caucus, Congressman Andy Biggs, I led a letter
signed by nine Representatives opposing the confirmation of Tracy
Stone-Manning as the director of the Bureau of Land Management. As senior
advisor at the National Wildlife Federation, Stone-Manning made clear
her biting hostility towards the Bureau's move to Grand Junction,
private-public land leasing partnerships, and responsible energy
development.
My primary goal remains to get states and community members to
have more of a say in the land management decisions that impact their
daily lives, which is why I will continue to oppose Stone-Manning's
confirmation.
Her radical opposition to energy development and the
Bureau's efforts to improve community relationships run counter to the land
stewardship principles that are rural Colorado's foundation.
**Serving Constituents**
My office has been working hard serving the
people of Colorado's Third Congressional District, and we have helped
nearly 200 constituents navigate the bureaucracy and resolve issues
with the federal government. In total, we have been able to return over
$130,000 to the District, and we are helping more veterans,
taxpayers, farmers, and families throughout the District every day. If you need
help with a federal agency, let me know!
**Bringing my Office
to You!**
The Third Congressional District is nearly 50,000 square
miles and 48% of the entire state of Colorado. Living in rural
Colorado, I know how hard it can be to get around, so I am bringing my
office to you. My favorite part about my job is serving people, so if you
have *issues with a federal agency* [link 1], want to voice your
opinion on upcoming legislation, or share your story with my office, please
come out to one of our mobile offices and we will be happy to meet
with you.
