Just put the kids to bed

Hey there, I just put Davis and Sam to bed (about a dozen picture books later 😅). But I needed to reach out before I turned in for the night too. And listen — I know I’m probably not the only Democrat in your inbox today, so I promise to keep this quick: With just a few hours until our End-of-…

My opponent is posting gross AI-generated images of me

This is a new low: My opponent is posting gross AI-generated images of me to intentionally mislead undecided voters about our campaign. Frankly, I didn’t even want to dignify this attack with a response. But you deserve to know exactly what we’re up against: A MAGA Republican willing to lie…

From Morrison to Lakewood to Broomfield

Over the course of this campaign, I’ve spent a lot of time in every corner of Colorado’s Seventh. From Morrison to Lakewood to Broomfield, I keep hearing the same troubling story. Small business owners who have spent decades pouring their heart and soul into their work are struggling to stay aflo…

This wasn't in our plans

We have to tell you the truth: Summer is a historically slower season for campaigns, including ours. We planned for a small dip in fundraising in August — let’s face it, even we would prefer to be out in the sun rather than reading an email. But we didn’t think our momentum would drop this much. …

“Go home and be a mother to your child.”

Have you ever noticed how narrow the definition of success is for moms, according to the so-called ‘family values’ Republican party? If I go to work, I’m depriving my children of a present mother. If I bring my newborn with me to work because I don’t have access to child care, I’m “using him a…

Colorado is at a breaking point

Colorado is at a breaking point. All across the state, families are struggling to keep their heads above the water because of Donald Trump. His tariffs have wrecked the economy and jacked up costs. His illegal war with Iran has cost the average American household $1,100. And all his MAGA allie…
