Honored to have the endorsement of my dear friend, @SamuelLJackson
Sam has always shown up for the people and causes he believes in - and I am grateful he is showing up for Los Angeles.
We’re aligned on the change I’m working to bring to L.A. That means getting more people off the streets into housing and connected with comprehensive services. It means more affordable housing units being built. And it means continuing to lower crime down to historic lows.
Families across Colorado are getting priced out of the communities they love because housing costs are out of control.
I’m so proud to have fought to pass a comprehensive housing package that includes my bills to make it easier to build housing in rural communities, lower construction barriers, and make the mortgage process easier for our veterans. We’re in the 21st century, and it’s time for our housing policy to catch up.
At the British Museum for 3 hours. I am the only one masking! This is wild! If you are traveling by yourself, why not mask? You have literally nothing to lose, only random strangers will judge you. The heath benefits of masking are enormous relative to cost. #COVIDisAirborne
I’m honored to have the endorsement of Elect Democratic Women. Their mission – to elect more women to Congress – is such a critical one, especially now.
While this administration wages war on women, I will keep fighting to protect and expand our rights and representation.
Gianna’s father was taken from her six years ago today. George Floyd’s life mattered not only to those who loved him, but to all of us who still believe in the dignity of every human being.
As we remember him, let us also remember what remains before us. Mourning must move us toward moral courage. Grief must move us toward justice. And love must move us to create a world where no child has to carry this kind of loss because of violence and dehumanization.
Please continue to lift up Gianna and all who love and miss him.

On Memorial Day, we recognize fallen service members who have given their lives for our nation. Our office will be closed today in recognition of the holiday. All online services remain available at ColoradoSOS.gov.
George Floyd’s murder sparked a national reckoning over police violence. But national attention alone has not delivered the systemic reform communities deserve.
According to the 2025 Police Violence Report, police killings remain near record highs in the years since he was murdered.
Today we remember and honor the service men and women who, as Abraham Lincoln stated, gave their last full measure of devotion to our Nation. May we be worthy of their sacrifices and reaffirm our resolve to uphold the values and freedoms they so valiantly fought for.
The Trump administration issued a sweeping policy directive requiring most temporary visa holders and humanitarian parolees living in the U.S. to return to their home countries to apply for and complete their green card applications. abcnews.link/zXurgOC
Ko Tinmaung, a Toronto-based Rohingya activist, has been released after more than 96 hours in Israeli detention following Israel’s hijacking of the Global Sumud Flotilla and the abduction of its civilian participants.
His testimony is horrifying.
He says he was beaten in a dark room by more than five people, kicked, punched, tasered in multiple places, and handcuffed so tightly that the restraints cut into his wrists and restricted blood flow. He says he still needs treatment for concussion-like injuries.
He also says he witnessed other detainees with broken ribs, head wounds, blood from their ears, eye injuries, broken noses and broken teeth. Most gravely, he alleges sexual assaults, including people being tasered on their genitals.
Tinmaung’s testimony also exposes the racial dimension of Israeli violence. He says he was mocked as “Ahmed”, assaulted further, laughed at because of his skin colour, and treated as if his passport had no value because he was brown.
This was a civilian-led humanitarian mission carrying food, aid and basic supplies to Gaza. So where is Canada? Where are the human rights organisations? Where are the global leadership councils, the moral authorities, the professional defenders of accountability?
Silence now is not neutrality. It is complicity.

On Memorial Day, we pay tribute to the brave men and women in uniform who gave their lives for this country that we love. It is a debt we can never fully repay, but we must never stop trying. I’ll always be grateful to our fallen heroes and their families, whose sacrifice reminds us of what it means to live for something greater than ourselves.
Freedom comes at a price. Today, we honor the costs paid by those who've served and their loved ones, both in Denver and around the country. The best way we can honor them is to defend and fight for the values they loved: justice, liberty and equality for all. #MemorialDay
A student’s graduation speech has gone viral after he went off script, calling his school’s entire student body “oppressed youth” and accusing the school of being “built on racism, sexism and homophobia.”
