More than 500k Coloradans have lost their Medicaid coverage in the last year. The state must address this crisis. Thanks @Kyle_Mullica and @SenKirkmeyer for prioritizing this issue. #copolitics #coleg #Medicaid @CBHC_News

@StinaSieg Sending you good thoughts!

[David Axelrod @davidaxelrod]

Trump has been promising a health care plan for nine years.
He tried 60 times to repeal the Affordable Care Act 60 times without a replacement plan.
And has said IN THIS CAMPAIGN that he would try again to repeal it.
Vance's account of this history is simply untrue.

Today is #TransDayOfRemembrance, where we honor trans individuals who were murdered in the last year because of hate.

Hate has no place in CO. We've worked to protect access to gender affirming care & ensure EVERYONE feels welcomed & loved in our state.
