Always great to hear from Colorado farmers. I’m glad to have @RMFU’s partnership as we work together to combat historic drought, increase transparency in cattle markets, bring certainty to farmworkers and industry, and shape a Farm Bill that works for the West. https://t.co/vJxMf9kIgM — PolitiTweet.org

There is so much to celebrate about the Latino community’s deep roots in Colorado. This #HispanicHeritageMonth, let’s celebrate the many histories and cultures of our Latino communities and their contributions to our state for almost 400 years. — PolitiTweet.org

Shailen Bhatt did a terrific job leading the Colorado Department of Transportation, and I am confident he will bring the same vision and energy if confirmed as Administrator of the Federal Highway Administration. — PolitiTweet.org

Colorado will always be grateful for astronaut Vance Brand’s generosity and service to our state. His donation will expand the treasured Rocky Mountain National Park and help preserve this landscape for future generations. https://t.co/JWzNETMZgP — PolitiTweet.org

My Digital Platform Commission Act would establish an independent body with the expertise, tools, and resources to provide common-sense oversight of tech companies that have amassed extraordinary power over our economy, democracy, and society. https://t.co/N6QfE9wS5S — PolitiTweet.org

The Twitter whistleblower's allegations, if true, raise grave questions about the company's privacy and security practices. It's another reminder we need a federal agency to ensure digital platforms operate in the public interest, as I proposed in May. https://t.co/l1mA4AmvLx — PolitiTweet.org

For years, Coloradans have called on Washington to do something about the urgent threat of climate change and the outrageous cost of prescription drugs. With the #InflationReductionAct we overcame the special interests and got it done. — PolitiTweet.org

NEWS: Driven by the expanded #ChildTaxCredit, child poverty dropped to its lowest rate ever. We should never have allowed this lifeline to expire – and we should not extend corporate tax breaks at the end of the year without also extending the CTC. https://t.co/t8jp6yoSvu — PolitiTweet.org

“A healthy, balanced environment is one of our most powerful tools for keeping our democracy safe and secure.” I couldn’t agree more. I’m thankful to have the 10th Mountain NSDAR’s support for the CORE Act and designating Camp Hale a national monument. https://t.co/eLqdjrzPJz — PolitiTweet.org

We're traveling to every corner of the state to hear from Colorado farmers and ranchers and ensure next year’s Farm Bill reflects their priorities. Next up, we're heading to Southwest and Central Colorado and the San Luis Valley! I hope you join us. https://t.co/rZhIjfvI9u — PolitiTweet.org

In the years ahead, we must hold onto that shared sense of patriotism and purpose to protect our nation. — PolitiTweet.org

The true legacy of September 11 is not the attacks themselves, but America’s response. The terrorists sought to destroy our freedom, democracy, and way of life. They failed. We met their fear with hope. We answered their hatred with unity. We faced the darkness and endured. — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

21 years ago, terrorists struck our nation in an evil and cowardly attack. As we mourn the thousands of innocent lives taken from us that day, we also honor the heroism of our first responders and the men and women who have served and sacrificed over two decades to keep us safe. — PolitiTweet.org

We have a huge opportunity to pass the Give Kids A Chance Act and provide children battling cancer with lifesaving treatment. We can’t let it pass us by. https://t.co/4ini2ryoNv — PolitiTweet.org

Thanks to the infrastructure law and @USDOT, Colorado will receive $100M to break ground on Floyd Hill and improve I-70. Millions of families & businesses depend on the I-70 corridor and this critical funding will help connect communities from the Front Range to the West Slope. https://t.co/mSi37O3KEh — PolitiTweet.org

Gail told me the insulin she buys costs $6 to make, but she pays over $280 for it. Stories like Gail's are why we capped insulin costs for people on Medicare to $35 a month in the #InflationReductionAct. We need to do more & cap it for every American. https://t.co/QZjTvh5oSJ — PolitiTweet.org

Pollution from abandoned oil and gas wells contaminates our water and air and endangers our public health and safety. We need to raise bonding requirements to ensure oil and gas companies - not the American taxpayer - foot the bill for cleaning them up. https://t.co/FCO3VQjQod — PolitiTweet.org

It is past time for the EPA to take this critical step – in line with my recommendations – to regulate two key PFAS chemicals as hazardous substances and hold polluters accountable. I'll continue to fight to protect public health and the environment for all Coloradans. — PolitiTweet.org

Queen Elizabeth II was a resilient and devoted leader who strengthened the special relationship between our two countries. I share my condolences with all mourning her loss. — PolitiTweet.org

Congratulations to the @USWNT and @USMNT for signing a new @ussoccer CBA. This is a historic win for equality and fair pay— on and off the field. — PolitiTweet.org

Deeply saddened by the passing of Ken Kitajima, one of the survivors of the internment site at Camp Amache. His tireless advocacy was critical to preserving the site and the memory of what happened there for future generations. Colorado will miss his leadership. — PolitiTweet.org

Michael Bennet @SenatorBennet

Mark Waltermire is right. With major investments to restore our forests & watersheds, improve soil health, and mitigate drought, the #InflationReductionAct will help make our farms more resilient in the face of warmer and drier conditions across the West. https://t.co/786Weimq7a — PolitiTweet.org

The VA’s decision to offer abortion services to veterans and their dependents is significant. I’ll keep pushing the agency to provide these services to all veterans, regardless of their circumstance. https://t.co/NMlg5DhX8g — PolitiTweet.org

On this Labor Day, let's remember that so many features of our economy today — an 8-hour workday, overtime, the minimum wage, the weekend — were hard-won victories by organized labor. Our job is to keep going until every American worker has a living wage and safe workplace. — PolitiTweet.org
