Dear Neighbor,

Over the past week I’ve had an opportunity to visit with countless folks across our congressional district — from Longmont to Fort Collins, Georgetown to Avon, and many places in between! In every interaction, I’m reminded how truly lucky I am to represent such an incredible and engaged community, and how high the stakes are for all of us as we work together to navigate incredibly difficult challenges facing our republic right now. 

A few days ago, I was privileged to meet with local leaders in Clear Creek, Summit and Eagle Counties to discuss a wide range of issues, including the impact of tariffs on local small businesses and the tourism industry, the I-70 Floyd Hill project and our work to address challenges concerning rural mail delivery in Avon and beyond.

I also had the opportunity to visit with clinicians and physicians at the Avon Integrated Health Center to discuss the devastating healthcare impacts Trump’s reckless budget bill — now law — will have on the clinic, as well as folks in our rural and mountain communities. Please know, I’m committed to fighting back against these cuts to vital community lifelines and will continue to work with my colleagues to navigate a better path forward.

Earlier this summer, I was proud to build a bipartisan coalition that helped stop Senator Mike Lee’s attempt to sell off our cherished public lands. And over this past weekend, I joined the League of Conservation Voters, the Wilderness Society, and folks from across Colorado in Boulder to re-engage in the fight and discuss the battles ahead to protect our treasured public lands. 

I also recently led an effort to urge the Department of the Interior and Bureau of Reclamation to release $140 million in federal funding for 15 critical water projects across the state — including the Shoshone Water Right Preservation project in our district—to help us confront the growing Colorado River crisis.

• 🧑🏾‍🌾 This Saturday, I stopped by the Boulder County Farmers Market in Longmont!
