As a proud Buff alum, I feel compelled to note that, investigation aside, the anti-marijuana campaign in question *did* veer into racist tropes with the skin color used in the visuals. As we celebrate Juneteenth, it’s important we acknowledge the harm that can cause. See below:
Boebert should have stood with CO colleague @RepPettersen to allow moms of newborns to vote via proxy. I applaud Rep. Burchett, @realannapaulina, and other Republicans for doing what Boebert would not (Rep. Luna, sorry Boebert messed up your task force hearing by failing to prepare enough to know the difference between Roger and Oliver Stone).
Today, we are voting on who should lead the Democratic Party forward. It’s a consequential responsibility during a consequential time, and the Colorado Democrats are ready to support our party’s next leader in the work we have.
Two decades ago, Colorado was a red state--it could have been written off. Instead, @coloradodems dug deep, worked hard and turned the state around. This did not come easy and it won't be easy to keep the blue streak going--but with leaders (and fellow mom!) like Vice Chair @IndiraDuggirala we are in good hands. Proud to have her in my corner. #ASDC #DNC
Reorganization is our process of electing new leaders to move our party forward – this is your chance to shape the future of the Democratic Party right here in Colorado. If you are ready to help us build a powerful movement, influence our campaigns, and engage your community, this is your chance to create the political future you want to see.
I’m thrilled to announce that I’ll be running for reelection as @coloradodems Chair with my partner Vice Chairs Indira Duggirala and Scott Mangino.

More to come, but @coloradodems organized very differently, very specifically, + with extreme level of investment and focus in local/rural communities for almost 2 years.
+ our incredible Harris operation & team + a populist inclusive msg.
= wins up + down ballot. #copolitics
Incredible event in Adams County with Colorado’s AAPI community yesterday. These leaders — like Mayor JD Mangat and @IndiraDuggirala — know that this is the most important election of our lives. Make a plan to elect @KamalaHarris!
This week, @Hickenlooper, @trisha4colorado, and @IndiraDuggirala joined the @DougCoDems to rally the troops in the final three weeks of the campaign. Thank you to everyone who came out and helped us during our GOTV efforts in a critical part of our state. Go, fight, win!
My parents both had cancer at the same time. They passed last fall. Being there to ease their transition was a labor of love, a final gift, and possible thanks to the love and values of my hometown community. I'm running to fix our broken care systems, to lower costs, and to fire Lauren Boebert because she doesn't care about your family. But I do. If she won't do her job, I will.
Navarathri is a festival celebrating Goddess Durga’s battle against Mahishasura for 9 days. Bathukamma is a version rooted in rural south India. This wonderful tradition is now celebrated across the world. It was an honor to join the 10th annual celebration in Parker. Cultural exchange and inclusion enrich our collective good. We’re in this together, and with just 29 days left, let’s defeat Lauren Boebert.
Looks like the Colorado GOP went from burning Pride flags to burning down their own party?
While they do whatever exactly they are doing…we’re busy building up our efforts to elect pro-choice, pro-freedom Democrats that will deliver real results for Colorado.

Cong makes laws & budgets; the Judiciary interprets law & settles disputes; the Executive is in charge of the administrative state. POTUS/Exec can make or break the administration. Someone who gets the power of the administrative state to serve is needed. Harris4POTUS
Union apprenticeships are the gold workforce training standard that delivers for American competitiveness. The earn-while-you-learn model means debt-free pathways to the middle class, and trained, highly-skilled workers are good for local businesses. We need more apprenticeships.
