What moms really want for Mother's Day this year

Hey, As millions of families across the globe celebrate Mother’s Day, we wanted to highlight some of the incredible work one kick-ass mom, Brittany Pettersen, is getting done. But first, some context: Historically, young moms serving in Congress are pretty rare. In fact, Brittany was just the …

This is major news — and I wanted you to hear it directly from me. I’ve officially been added to the Democrats’ Red to Blue program — a select group of competitive House candidates who have the best chance at flipping Republican-held seats. [link removed] [[link removed]] I’ll explain more …

People like me aren't "supposed" to make it to Congress

People like me aren’t “supposed” to make it to Congress. I don’t come from generational wealth. My mom was a hairdresser, and my dad worked in construction, and I was the first in my family to graduate high school. No, Washington wasn’t built with people like me in mind. And it shows. For every p…

History books

From the moment they’re born, we teach our kids to be nice to others. We tell them to treat others how they want to be treated. We coach them how to stand up for themselves against bullies. So why has Team MAGA forgotten those childhood lessons? Why does the Republican Party continue to elevate som…

The Supreme Court's morally bankrupt ruling

The Supreme Court’s ruling gutting the Voting Rights Act is an outrage with disastrous consequences for our democracy. It’s an invitation for Republican special interests to silence Black voices across our country. And unless we fight back, it’s a massive opening for Team MAGA to permanently r…

Like so many Coloradans, I remember how it felt to step onto the stage at my high school graduation. It felt like the beginning of a new era — where one chapter of my life closed, and another just began. But that wasn’t entirely true. Because the lessons I learned at my public school still stick wit…

Not even MAGA Republicans can deny it at this point: Pete Hegseth is wildly incompetent and he’s endangering us all. He is recklessly carrying out Trump’s unauthorized war in Iran — indiscriminately targeting a girls’ school, killing almost 200 children. He’s overseen the appalling air strikes on…

Happy Tax Day!

Happy Tax Day! (said no one, ever). Today is a great opportunity to remind you that Donald Trump and MAGA Republicans gave over $2 trillion in tax cuts to the ultra-wealthy — and ripped away health care from up to 110,000 Coloradans to pay for it. We’ll keep this short and to the point: If you…
