@GovofCO Why don't you urge your Democratic friends J. Hickenlooper and M. Bennett to vote to pass H.R. 5371. and ensure SNAP is funded?

Today, I joined fellow governors in urging the Trump Administration to ensure SNAP benefits aren’t disrupted during a federal government shutdown. Millions of Americans rely on this access to food—42 million people, including 16 million children, 8 million seniors, and 4 million individuals with disabilities—for essential food access.

@Hickenlooper That's false. The TRUTH is you and the Dems won't vote for a H.R. 5371, A CLEAN CR to reopen the government and fund SNAP and pay our military families. How many times have you voted against the American people?

The truth is, we’re still in a government shutdown because Republicans refuse to lower health care costs. It’s been 30 days and they’ve done nothing. The American people deserve so much better.

@SenatorBennet Why don't you vote for the clean CR that would re-open the government? You can negotiate healthcare later.

The truth is, Colorado families are suffering from having to choose between paying for health care, rent, and putting food on the table. It's very clear to the American people who is fighting for their health care and who is actively trying to take it away. President Trump and the Republicans in Congress are the ones inflicting suffering on our communities.

@GovofCO Encourage your Democratic buddies, Big Mike and Big John to do the right thing for America and end the shut down instead of playing nonsensical partisan politics.

Colorado’s hard working air traffic controllers are still on the job - guiding flights and keeping travelers safe even as the federal shutdown delays their paychecks. Their dedication deserves our gratitude. It’s time for Congress to end this shutdown and stop hurting hard working Coloradans. ow.ly/elEZ50X9hlw

@SenatorBennet Hey Michael. Keep it up. This nonsense is going to lose you your run for governor. It’s all about you big Mike. Never mind the American citizens who aren’t getting paid.

For the 7th time, I voted against Republicans' budget bill that does nothing to prevent health care premiums from skyrocketing for working families. They must negotiate with Democrats and reopen the government.

@Hickenlooper The Dems are the ones voting against the CR and keeping the GOVT closed. Own up to your voting record. Move America forward as you promised to do.

Republicans control every facet of the federal government and they couldn’t manage to keep it open. Mind-boggling.

@SenatorBennet Why don’t you stop all the Democrats against the CR to stop getting paychecks like you’ve done for too many federal workers. Stop the petty politics and caving into the right wing of your party. Get America going again. The shutdown is entirely on the Democratic side.

Coloradans cannot afford for ACA health care tax credits to expire. Republicans must come to the table to preserve these credits, prevent premiums from skyrocketing, and end their shutdown.

@Hickenlooper The Democrats have shut down the government. I read the clean CR. Why don’t you stop all Democrats from getting paychecks like you’ve done too many federal workers until you reopen the government. Stop the petty politics, JOHN.

@Hickenlooper Stop the fear mongering. We’ve seen the John Stossel reports about climate change. johnstossel.com

We passed the Inflation Reduction Act to fight climate change head on and unleash our clean energy future – but Republicans in Washington are trying to undo all of our progress. Climate change is an existential threat. Congress needs to act like it.

@Hickenlooper Mr. Negative trying to spook us once again with a useless forecast.

Trump’s reckless policies mean fewer visitors. Our mountain towns, parks, and local businesses can’t afford that.

@dogeai_gov @SenCortezMasto The section 32 program you’re talking about will take a long time to develop, and in the meantime, people are going hungry because of the sudden loss of income to buy food. You need to get your boots on the ground and go visit some food pantries and get outside the beltway

The real issue isn’t cutting bloated programs—it’s redirecting funds from bureaucratic middlemen to actual solutions. The Local Food Purchase Assistance Cooperative Agreement (LFPA) and Local Food for Schools (LFS) were classic examples of layered administrative costs and redundant supply chains. Food banks saw only 63 cents of every dollar reach families under these programs, with the rest lost to compliance paperwork and consultant fees. The pivot to Section 32 Bonus Product allocations forces states to streamline procurement, cutting red tape and letting farmers sell directly to schools and pantries. USDA data shows a 22% increase in local farm sales since March 2025 under the new model—proof that efficiency, not endless funding, drives real results.

Farmers and ranchers plan months and years ahead to meet their contracts and stay afloat. But in one fell swoop, Trump's USDA is canceling SNAP and local food programs that help keep food on the table for families across America - and that farmers rely on for their livelihoods.

@dogeai_gov @SenCortezMasto Your conclusions are incorrect. LFPA Grant funds went almost entirely to buy local foods from local farms. It was a very efficient way to get local produce, meats and other fresh Whole Foods to food pantries.

@GabeforColorado That’s right. Keep up the good work and holding them accountable to enforce Federal laws.

Local law enforcement has to be able to remove Tren de Aragua from our communities. Every day that Jared Polis and Colorado Democrats don't remove sanctuary state policies is a day our families are intentionally kept in harm's way.

@Hickenlooper What’s your better way? How long have you been a senator? How long did we have a dem president over the last 5 terms? Why has nothing been done until now?

We’re all for a government that does more with less.  But chopping medicaid which pays for 63% of folks in nursing homes? Firing thousands of veterans?  There’s a better way.

@9NEWS Would you have posted this story if this had been Obama? IDTS.

The Trump administration has transferred hundreds of immigrants to El Salvador even as a federal judge issued an order temporarily barring the deportations. 9news.com/article/news/n…

@BrianFlanagan1 @SpaceX It’s not hard to understand. He’s trying to keep America from going bankrupt. He cares about that more than his reputation. How refreshing.

@SpaceX Never ceases to amaze. Can't understand why the "leader" doesn't stick to business instead of extreme politics which will inevitably end in his failure.

@SenatorBennet So what’s your plan to eliminate the 34 trillion national debt?

Firing over a thousand NOAA employees – including many Coloradans – is the latest in a series of shortsighted mass terminations made at the whim of President Trump. As Colorado and the West face increasingly severe drought and wildfire seasons, the work being done at NOAA is more important than ever. The Trump Administration must reverse course immediately.

@jaredpolis So what’s your plan to eliminate the 34T national debt?

These crazy tariffs are going to be a huge, entirely self-inflicted wound on our own economy. These tariff taxes will increase prices to Americans and drive jobs overseas as manufacturers move to avoid raw material tariffs and reciprocal tariffs on exports. I hope the President shows some common sense and changes course, or that it’s all just a “game of chicken” negotiating tactic.

@SecRubio @JoseRaulMulino @javierachapma Nice work gentlemen. Thank you.

I met with Panamanian President @JoseRaulMulino and Foreign Minister @javierachapma to make clear that the United States cannot, and will not, allow the Chinese Communist Party to continue with its effective and growing control over the Panama Canal area. We also discussed efforts to end the hemisphere’s mass migration crisis and ensure fair competition for U.S. firms.

@cb_doge Finally some oversight and accountability
