The results are in: 97% of Americans received a tax cut this filing season.

That's not tax relief for billionaires. That's tax relief for hardworking families, seniors, small business owners, tipped workers, and Americans putting in overtime to provide for their families.

More than $82 billion has already been returned to taxpayers through the Working Families Tax Cuts, with the overwhelming majority of relief going to households earning under $200,000 per year.

@HouseGOP promised to prevent the largest tax hike in American history and put more money back into the pockets of working Americans. We delivered.

I'm proud to support policies that reward work, strengthen families, and help Coloradans keep more of their hard-earned money.

[Energy and Commerce Committee @HouseCommerce]

Unintended consequences matter. Restrictive regulation in states like California or Colorado can end up increasing emissions and cost to consumers.

At today’s hearing, @RepGabeEvans discussed how these policies risk pushing energy production and refining activity out of the U.S. to less restrictive countries rather than achieving real environmental gains.

[Congressman Gabe Evans @repgabeevans]

Public safety and constitutional rights are not mutually exclusive.

As a former Sergeant and Lieutenant in the Denver metro area, I understood that enforcing the law meant following the law. That's why I asked Secretary Mullin how DHS is implementing a policy requiring judicial warrants before entering private homes.

We can target gang members, traffickers, and violent criminals while still respecting the constitutional protections every American deserves.

[Congressman Gabe Evans @repgabeevans]

As a former police officer, this is an issue I take seriously.

As Secretary Mullin appears before the House Homeland Security Committee, one of the questions I'll be asking is how DHS is implementing policies to ensure immigration enforcement actions respect the constitutional rights of the American people.

We need to secure our border, remove dangerous criminals from our communities, and enforce our laws. But we must also uphold the Constitution and protect the Fourth Amendment rights that make our country worth defending in the first place.

Colorado's growth depends on reliable, affordable energy.

Right now, communities across Northern Colorado are facing a simple reality: we don't have enough power generation to keep up with growing demand. That means fewer jobs, fewer homes, and fewer opportunities for Colorado families.

That's why I'm leading efforts to cut red tape and streamline the permitting process through legislation like the FIRE Act, CERTAIN Act, and the SPEED Act. We need an all-of-the-above energy strategy that allows us to build critical infrastructure faster, strengthen our electric grid, and keep energy affordable and reliable.

If we want to support growth, attract businesses, and lower costs for hardworking Coloradans, we have to start building again.

[Congressman Gabe Evans @repgabeevans]

I am proud to stand with Mayor Colleen Whitlow and Mayor Will Karspeck to announce $1 million in Community Project Funding that I secured for Weld County Road 7.

This investment will pave nearly two miles of roadway, improve drainage, enhance safety, and help keep Northern Colorado moving as our region continues to grow.

[Congressman Gabe Evans @repgabeevans]

I secured $3.5 million to help expand the Greeley-Weld County Airport, and I’m continuing to fight for additional funding to support a new air traffic control tower and future growth.

As Northern Colorado continues to grow, investments like these will improve safety, create jobs, attract new businesses, strengthen our economy, and help relieve air traffic congestion and noise over the Denver metro area for generations to come.

Happy Birthday to my incredible wife, Anne!

Anne is the heart of our family, an amazing mother to our boys, and my greatest source of strength and support. I am grateful every day for her love, sacrifice, and unwavering commitment to our family.

[Congressman Gabe Evans @repgabeevans]

Colorado families are paying the price for years of failed infrastructure priorities.

Our state now has the 6th worst urban roads and 4th worst rural roads in the nation — costing drivers an estimated $1,900 a year in vehicle repairs.

Safe roads shouldn’t be partisan.

[Congressman Gabe Evans @repgabeevans]

I secured $8.6 million for the largest water infrastructure project in the FEMA portion of the DHS appropriations bill to help protect Northern Colorado’s water supply.

The Gold Hill Pipeline will improve resiliency in Greeley after the devastating Cameron Peak Fire and help ensure families have reliable, safe water for years to come.

[Congressman Gabe Evans @repgabeevans]

This administration is right to keep pressure on Iran.

We cannot allow the world’s leading state sponsor of terrorism to threaten Americans, destabilize the Middle East, or obtain a nuclear weapon.

Peace through strength remains a core doctrine of this administration –– preventing war and deterring aggression.

[Congressman Gabe Evans @repgabeevans]

Colorado’s first responders put their lives on the line to protect our communities every day.

New FEMA funding opportunities are now available to help fire departments and EMS agencies hire and retain firefighters, purchase critical equipment, strengthen emergency response capabilities, and support firefighter safety and wellness.

More than $648 million is available nationwide through FEMA’s AFG, SAFER, and FP&S grant programs.

Applications are open now through June 22, 2026.

Eligible  departments and organizations are encouraged to apply!

I spent over a decade as a police officer responding to crashes ranging from minor fender benders to fatal accidents.

That experience taught me something simple: safe vehicles also need safe roads.

I am proud to support bipartisan efforts to strengthen roadway & vehicle safety.

[Congressman Gabe Evans @repgabeevans]

I’m so glad that after the administration and @HouseGOP took action, Colorado was able to improve SNAP processing timeliness from 71% to nearly 99% — a major improvement for families relying on these services.

This is what happens when we push for stronger oversight, accountability, and reforms that make government work better for the people it serves. Faster service and fewer delays are real results families can count on. 🇺🇸

[Congressman Gabe Evans @repgabeevans]

I am honored to receive the Colorado Livestock Association’s Legislator of the Year Award today.

As a beef producer myself, I know Colorado agriculture isn’t just an industry — it’s a way of life.

I’ll keep fighting for the producers, farmers, and ranchers who feed America and power our economy.

[Congressman Gabe Evans @repgabeevans]

America cannot afford to rely on Communist China for critical manufacturing and supply chains.

That’s why I’m fighting for permitting reform to cut red tape, strengthen American industry, and bring jobs and manufacturing back to the United States — while still protecting clean air, land, and water.

[Congressman Gabe Evans @repgabeevans]

Every family deserves access to clean, safe drinking water.

New federal funding will help communities across our state address PFAS and other emerging contaminants — especially in small and rural communities across #CO08 that often lack the resources to upgrade aging water infrastructure.

POLICE OFFICERS FACE HEART ATTACKS NEARLY 20 YEARS EARLIER

@repgabeevans says stress, sleep disruption, and the demands of law enforcement can take a major toll on officers, while also highlighting concerns that many injured officers lack a long-term safety net after leaving the job.
