It's Throwback Thursday

This Throwback Thursday, take a look at this old picture of John and let us know what you think.   Hey team — Today is Thursday, but here at Team Hick, it’s no ordinary Thursday — it’s Throwback Thursday. Keeping things light around the office is important to us. After all, how can we …

February flew by

Making sure we have the resources needed to protect our Democratic Senate majority and win competitive elections is so incredibly important, especially when Republicans are already spending millions of dollars trying to attack my colleagues in battleground states.   Folks — February ab…

I have great news

Here’s what we helped create by passing the Inflation Reduction Act:   Folks — We've got a lot to celebrate. In the last six months alone, we’ve created 100,000 new jobs! That sounds pretty good, right? Well here’s the sweetener: It’s 100,000 new clean energy jobs. Bloomberg News, 2/6/…

It’s within our reach to end the gun violence epidemic

  Heads up: This email discusses gun violence. Folks — Last Tuesday marked the five year anniversary of the day that the lives of students at Marjorie Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida were forever changed — when a gunman murdered 17 of their fellow classmates and teac…

I’m running for reelection and I need your help

  Hello, Jon Tester from the great state of Montana here and I wanted you to be the first to know: I’m officially running for reelection. My team says we need to raise $1,000,000 in the first 24 hours of our launch. So, before I ask you to split a donation between me and John Hickenlo…

The latest attack on reproductive rights

  Team — Less than one year after the Supreme Court made the disastrous decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, reproductive rights still remain under attack. As of today, abortion is banned completely in 12 states across the country. But in January, the Food and Drug Administration expande…

The results are in

  Team, the results are in. We just finished combing through your responses to our February Priorities Survey, and here are three things that we learned: 1. Everyone shared that they’re committed to tackling the climate crisis. We feel the same way. That’s why we fought hard to get th…

I'm running against Lauren Boebert again

  Hello, I am officially running again against Lauren Boebert! In 2022, we came just 546 votes short of kicking Boebert out of Congress. It was the closest race in the entire country. Now, I’m running again to finish the job, but I need you with me from day one: Please, will you split…

explaining our campaign debt

  Hi – I’ll explain more below but our (victorious!) campaign has a little bit of debt to pay off. We made some great progress before the end of the year, and we’ve got just a little bit left to go. If you could split just $10 between my campaign and John Hickenlooper's right now to h…

Thoughts? 📝

  Hey folks! First, I want to say thank you. Whether you chipped in last month to power our work, took action with us to demand that the Senate confirm Phil Washington as our next FAA administrator (can you believe we’re still waiting?!), or split a donation between our campaign and o…

Downright cruel

  Folks, House Republicans are showing us every single day just how high the stakes are in 2024. In case you missed it, a few weeks ago, MAGA extremists like Matt Gaetz held the entire House hostage for days, stubbornly withholding their votes for a House Speaker until their condition…

Our right to choose

  Friend, The GOP House majority is barely a month old, and already, we’ve seen multiple efforts to harm women’s health care and take away the right to an abortion. I want you to know that I am going to fight like hell to defeat any attempt to restrict the right to choose. And I’m goi…

Not today, Chevron

  Hey folks — Did you hear? Last week Chevron announced $75 BILLION in stock buybacks. And no, that isn’t a typo – that’s billion with a ‘B’. So basically after a year of literally record profits ($36 BILLION), Chevron has decided to use that surplus to lower prices and give workers a…

Can I explain something?

  Hey there, can I quickly explain something? Growing up, I was never “cool.” I was the skinny kid with Coke-bottle glasses and a funny last name. After I got laid off as a geologist, I opened the first brewpub in Denver. I pluck the banjo and I like corny jokes (personally, I think t…

Colorado is showing the nation what true representation looks like

The Senate should confirm Phil Washington

  Hey folks — Most of you have probably been asking yourselves, “What the heck is going on with air travel lately?” And guess what? You’re not alone! To say air travel has been a mess would be putting it very, very lightly. And just when you thought things couldn’t get any worse, the …

The last remaining statewide-elected Democrat in Ohio

Ohio is already shaping up to be a must-win battleground   I'm up for re-election in 2024, and as one of just three Democrats in states Trump won and the only remaining statewide-elected Democrat in Ohio, I’m a prime target for Mitch McConnell and the GOP. (There’s already a wealthy Re…

Republicans are making it crystal clear what they stand for

  Hey folks — It hasn’t even been one week since Republicans took over the House, and I’ll be honest with you: it’s not looking good. After late night, backdoor deals – where they caved into Matt Gaetz and other MAGA extremists’ demands – House Republicans put forward a plan to help t…
