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. @AmandaHead @jsolomonReports

THE MILITARY MORALE IMPACT @repgabeevans argued that events, including Benghazi and changes in military priorities, had a lasting impact on morale, saying some veterans discouraged their children from military service. “Don’t you dare think of joining the military under Biden.” @jsolomonReports @AmandaHead

This Memorial Day, I’m remembering First Sergeant Marc Belo — a soldier, mentor, and dear friend who dedicated 30 years of his life to serving our country. His sacrifice and legacy will never be forgotten. That’s why I introduced the bipartisan BELO’s Act in his honor.

Folks are waking up to the consequences of Democrat policies in Colorado. We’re only 2% of the population — but 10% of the nation’s human trafficking. Sanctuary city policies and handcuffing police officers are making our communities less safe.

Colorado is receiving more than $200 million in first-year funding through the Rural Health Transformation Program to strengthen healthcare access in rural communities across our state. I’m proud to have supported H.R. 1 to help expand rural healthcare, support hospitals and providers, improve telehealth access, and ensure families in communities across #CO08 can get the care they deserve. 🇺🇸

Political violence and acts of extremism have absolutely no home in our country, and the continued targeting of President Trump, public officials, and innocent Americans is absolutely disgusting. I am grateful to the swift actions taken by The United States Secret Service and responding law enforcement officers to protect lives and contain the situation. Their courage and professionalism in moments lie these cannot be overstated. Anne and I are keeping the President, the Secret Service, and all those impacted by this incident in our thoughts and prayers.

Colorado’s sanctuary policies are putting politics ahead of public safety. Drug overdose deaths in Colorado rose from 1,603 to 1,813 last year while much of the country saw declines. Denver homicides are up 50% compared to this time last year, and human trafficking remains near record highs. That’s why I joined @JudiciaryGOP in demanding answers from Denver officials about policies that block coordination with federal authorities and release dangerous offenders back into our communities.

🚨#NEW: Colorado Congressman @repgabeevans, along with House Judiciary Chairman @jim_jordan, are investigating Denver, CO, for their lack of cooperation with federal law enforcement due to the city's "sanctuary city" policies protecting illegal immigrants. "Colorado only has 2% of the nation's population, but 10% of the nation's human trafficking happens in Colorado," Evans told The National News Desk's @GeoffHarrisTV. READ MORE: bit.ly/4dJk192

Every week, our office works directly with constituents to help resolve issues with federal agencies — from delayed benefits to security clearances and unpaid reimbursements. This week alone, our casework team helped return $39,839 back to constituents in #CO08. One constituent experienced a 19-month delay in the processing of his Combat-Related Special Compensation claim. After our office worked with the appropriate agency to help move the case forward, he received a favorable determination and more than $4,300 in compensation. If you need assistance with a federal agency, our office is here to help.

Bennett’s Bait & Tackle has been serving Colorado’s fishing community for decades and continues to be a go-to spot for anglers across Northern Colorado. As a family-run business, they’re not only helping people enjoy the outdoors — they’re also passing down a love of fishing to the next generation through community involvement and youth outreach. Businesses like this help keep Colorado’s outdoor traditions alive in #CO08.

Dominic’s Pizza has been part of the Johnstown community since 1986, serving hand-tossed New York-style pizza in historic downtown for nearly four decades. It was great getting to meet with Jake Bachman & his son who are continuing a longtime tradition that means so much to families across Johnstown and Milliken. Local restaurants like this help make #CO08 feel like home.

I stopped by Black Sheep Coffee + Crepes in Johnstown and met with the team behind this local favorite. Built by a local family with deep roots in the community, Black Sheep has created a welcoming space for families, friends, and neighbors to gather together over great coffee and homemade crepes. Small businesses like this are what make communities across #CO08 so special.

When will blue-state leaders realize that their soft-on-crime, sanctuary city policies are directly responsible for exploding homicide rates and skyrocketing drug overdoses? Tonight, on Real America w/ @DanNewsManBall - Rep. Gabe Evans (R-CO) @repgabeevans Watch Real America on YouTube TV Today!

I am proud to have secured federal funding for the Gold Hill Pipeline project in Greeley — a major investment in water infrastructure that will help protect clean drinking water and strengthen resilience after the devastating Cameron Peak Fire. This is exactly why I came to Congress: to fight for Colorado communities and deliver real results for #CO08.

Democrat-controlled New Mexico will get an additional $2 billion from energy revenue to use for their state budget. Meanwhile, Colorado Dems are banning natural gas stoves, water heaters, furnaces, and obstructing similar energy development—and the associated revenue and jobs—in Colorado.

Safe vehicles. Safe roads. @RepGabeEvans worked as a police officer and has seen how inaction leads to crashes and fatalities. Today’s legislation makes our families safer and our auto industry stronger.

Biden-Harris’s open border polices put American lives in danger by letting millions of illegal aliens flood into our country. WATCH how Democrats have disregarded the safety of Coloradans. ⬇️

Today I voted For the Stopping Indoctrination and Protecting Kids Act. Read my statement. ⬇️

Airlines for America (@AirlinesDotOrg) CEO and President Christopher Sununu tells @repgabeevans that the Passenger Security Fee diversion “has, up until the SAFEGUARDS Act––which will finally stop this madness––diverted...about a billion and a half a year in the past few years. And that money is critically needed.”
