How are you doing?

  Hey folks — I’m back home in Colorado this week — meeting with local officials and community leaders to talk about how we can build more affordable housing, ensure our veterans have the care they deserve, expand broadband, and so much more. Listening to Coloradans about the issues t…

Team, I wish I were writing with better news

  Hi friend, My right-wing opponent Erik Aadland is now on the air with TV ads across this district. But unless we can get a surge in grassroots donations before tonight’s deadline, we won’t have the resources to stay on air with our own ads between now and Election Day. I know this i…

Keeping this short

  Hey folks — I’m sure you’re receiving quite a few emails right now, so I’ll keep this one short. Tonight at midnight, our team will close the books on our final end-of-quarter fundraising deadline of this election and shortly after, our fundraising numbers will be made public for al…

bad news: please read

  Hi folks, John said I should reach out. I just got some bad news from my team, and frankly, I’m angry. A Republican super PAC is buying $2.5 million of ads to attack me on TVs across Colorado. They’re spending millions to flip my seat — and the Senate majority. Colorado could deter…

Is there anything we can say?

  Folks — Is there anything we can say to convince you to pitch in $5 to support our work to protect the Democratic Senate majority? What if we told you that National Republicans have raised more than $300 million this cycle and they’re spending big to take back the Senate? What if we…

$14.84

  My team just shared a number with me that I think you should know: $14.84. That’s the average contribution online to our campaign this quarter. I’m really proud of what this says about our campaign. Our team is fueled by hard-working grassroots donors who do what they can to make a …

Something you should know

  Here’s something you should know: I don’t like people fighting my battles for me. I’ve always gone where the fight is. After 9/11, I enlisted and became an Army Ranger. We were at war, so when my country called, I stepped up. After coming back stateside, I went to work to help Colo…

What CNN just said about our must-win race

I have not lost my voice

  Hi there — 11 years ago, I was shot. The bullet damaged the left hemisphere of my brain, where the language function sits. Ever since, Aphasia has been a part of my life. When I speak, the words are there. It’s just hard for me to get them out. Aphasia makes it harder for me to spea…
