I'm running for Congress because I'm a patriot, I love my country, and I love Colorado. We deserve more and better than what we are getting from Jeff Crank. Join Team Killin to unseat Jeff Crank and flip this district for the first time in history: https://t.co/X9XgqP9DfQ.
The House just passed a resolution to end the Iran War- with no thanks to Jeff Crank. Instead of joining in this bipartisan effort to stop the chaos, rising prices, and waste of taxpayer money that this war has caused, Jeff Crank voted to continue the conflict. We need a member of Congress who is not afraid to stand up to their own party and do what is best for their constituents and our national security. As your member of Congress, I will always put you first.
Trump and Crank’s carelessness with the budget deficit is causing interest rates to rise and worsening the affordability crisis for everyone (and don’t get me started on the corruption!). We need people in Congress who will actually do what they say and not destroy our economy.
NEW AD: Growing up in this community and understanding its deep sense of service and patriotism drove me to serve my country in the Army and continue a career working for the American people. The Pikes Peak Region deserves a representative who will lower costs, protect their rights, and listen to and engage with them. I will always stand up for El Paso County.
El Paso County deserves a Representative who shows up. And that is what I am doing every day. We would love to see you at any of our upcoming events and hear more about your questions and concerns. You can sign up and see more at https://t.co/U3fsalL6fr.
I am so proud to have the support of Corey Grundel and other voters like her across El Paso County who are ready for change. Ballots drop on June 8th, don’t forget to make a voting plan!
The best way to end a day of door knocking is with a fabulous house party! Thank you to everyone for your thoughtful questions and time. To sign up for future events, visit https://t.co/U3fsalL6fr.
Thank you so much to everyone who came out and volunteered today for our Day of Action (a month before the primary), and thank you to @RepPettersen for helping us kick it off! We had some great conversations with neighbors and enjoyed the beautiful canvassing weather. With your help, we were able to knock over 1000 doors today and spread the word on how and why we can defeat Jeff Crank! To sign up to volunteer in the future, visit https://t.co/MAccankI6S
No political party or movement has ownership of patriotism or the American flag. I am a patriot. I love my country, I love the flag, and I also love the color red. I want to take it back and give El Paso the leadership it actually deserves.
Thank you to @KatiePhang for having us on and highlighting this important race.

Happy Furry Friend Friday from our pal, Oreo! Oreo’s a spry, energetic little guy who can’t wait to get some exercise and enjoy the beautiful weather canvassing for Killin this weekend!
Let’s face it: when I am sworn in as your member of Congress in 2027, it is going to be a triage situation to address the chaos and harm of Crank's One Big Beautiful Bill. Once we put out the immediate fires of tariffs, healthcare cuts, and the basic cost-of-living issues, we can move to long-term solutions. We must pass comprehensive tax code reform that builds out a robust middle class and creates real economic opportunity. It is also imperative that we address the child care crisis here in El Paso County, because when women are forced to decide between caring for their children and working, the economy suffers.

It was great seeing so many community members turn out for the CD-5 Candidate Forum last night! Beating Jeff Crank in November is going to take hard work: door-knocking, phonebanking, uncomfortable conversations- but most of all, it is going to take unity. Together, we can beat Jeff Crank and take our country and community back.
Raj, Cora, and I got to venture over to Territory Days in OCC this weekend. It was great to see so many members of our community enjoying the festival—especially all the puppies!
Over 1.3 million Americans have paid the ultimate sacrifice in protecting and defending our democracy since the birth of our great country 250 years ago. Today, I had the opportunity to pay homage to those heroes at the Monument Memorial Day ceremony. Let us never forget their service and sacrifice. And let’s continue to build and perfect a nation that is worthy of it.
We need to improve our political discourse in this country. And that’s why we need Members of Congress who will lead by example and have the courage to engage in those challenging conversations. I commit to having an open door and holding regular in-person townhalls as your Representative. I also commit to listening and engaging with members of our community, regardless of whether you voted for me or not. That is part of being a true public servant.
Our community is exhausted by Jeff Crank being too scared to face his own constituents and stand up to his own party. We need a member of Congress who isn’t afraid to stand up to both parties in Washington and create policy that actually delivers results.

Jeff Crank voted twice for the Iran War. Now, he and his party bosses have to cancel votes because they know they’ll lose. Jeff Crank is raising our costs, and El Paso County families are feeling the strain. We deserve better.
VFRL ENDORSEMENT ANNOUNCEMENT:
Veterans for Responsible Leadership is proud to endorse U.S. Army Veteran, Jessica Killin, for U.S. House to represent Colorado's 5th District. Jessica served as a Captain and paratrooper in the U.S. Army, where she was stationed overseas and led soldiers as a Military Police Officer.

There is no one better to fight for the constituents of Colorado’s 5th District than a former paratrooper. She will be a champion for veterans’ healthcare.
VFRL is honored to support her candidacy.
Happy Furry Friend Friday! Bennie is a little worried about our political climate at the moment, but knows that Team Killin has his back and is fighting for his home district! He is also worried about a lack of treats, which, unfortunately, Team Killin cannot help with- but we do have free yard signs!
