Michael Bennet has always been someone I can depend on to fight for commonsense gun safety legislation

  Hello, The fight to prevent gun violence is deeply personal to me. It defined my earliest days in the Senate, and it has driven my work ever since. I’ve made it my mission to pass common sense gun safety legislation to make our communities safer. Earlier this month, a man in Georgi…

  Folks, our very first FEC deadline of 2021 is next week and we set an ambitious $25,000 goal. Here’s why that matters: Mitch McConnell and Senate Republicans are more determined than ever to retake the Senate in 2022. All they have to do is flip a single seat. Once we file our FEC …
