Quickly checking in

John, I'm quickly checking in before midnight's end-of-month deadline because we're close to missing our $2,000 end-of-month fundraising goal. The summer months can be slow for fundraising, but we need to stay on pace. With just a year until the midterms and national Republicans already outraisin…

We still haven't hit our August fundraising goal.

101 years of cracks in the glass ceiling

John, One hundred-one years ago this week, the 19th Amendment was adopted after decades of marching, advocating, organizing, and fighting for suffrage. The progress we've made toward equality since then is tremendous. Right now, over a quarter of the Members of Congress are women, a woman is s…

All students should have access to a quality public education, even during the pandemic.

John, Many Colorado students went back to school this week. And next week, Denver Public Schools students will return for another school year in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic. I applaud Denver Public Schools for its leadership in prioritizing the health and safety of students and teachers.…

The summer is winding down, but we can't stop

John, The summer is winding down, and Congress is on a break, but Diana isn't slowing down for even a second. Just in the last month, she secured over $13 million to tackle Denver's housing and healthcare issues, introduced a bill to expand Medicaid coverage, and was a leading voice in support…

Resources to protect yourself and your loved ones from COVID-19

John, Keeping our communities safe and healthy has always been my top priority. It's one of the reasons I ran for Congress and what's fueled me throughout the past year and a half. With the Delta COVID-19 variant overwhelming hospitals across the country, I wanted to ensure you had the resourc…

Demand an extension to the nationwide eviction moratorium

John, On August 1, the eviction moratorium put in place at the beginning of the pandemic expired. Millions of tenants across the country -- including over 121,000 Coloradans -- are facing housing instability. We've seen the impact of the economic downturn brought about by COVID-19. Folks lost …

The Hyde Amendment has got to go

John, For far too long, the Hyde Amendment -- a ban on federal funds being used to pay for abortion -- has been a barrier for mainly poor, Black, Latina, Indigenous, and disabled women to access abortion services. Too many women have carried an unwanted pregnancy to term simply because they co…

Do you agree the Congress must take action on voting rights? [SURVEY]

Diana will keep fighting -- no matter what congressional Republicans think
