This is beyond offensive and not even close to accurate about diabetes or why people need insulin. Thousands of people in your district have Type 1 diabetes at no fault of their own - do you not care? Shame on you.

So if you get this experimental vaccine, Democrats will give you donuts and fast food. But if you get diabetes from eating the donuts and fast food, they jacked the price of insulin up so you’ll be paying absurd amounts to get better. It's never been about your health.

If you *actually* cared about insulin prices, you’d: 1. Know that the rule was only going to help small % of people and is being rewritten so it’s more broad. 2. Sign your name on to a bipartisan bill that will lower insulin costs for all. 3. Do actual work, not just tweet.

UPDATE: Our friends in the Senate have just passed Kevin's Law ( #HB1077 ) with a 35-0 vote! See the vote here: It will come back to the House one last time so we can concur with their small technical amendment, then the Gov. @jaredpolis ! #coleg #insulin4all

Kevin Houdeshell died because his insulin prescription ran out and he could not get it renewed over the holidays. That. Should. Never. Happen. I am working to enact "Kevin's Law" in Colorado so people can get their medicine even if their prescription runs out. #coleg #insulin4all

Left here at 10:30pm last night and was back at 6:30am this morning. Session is getting busy and even with the lack of sleep, I continue to be so grateful to do this work for the state we love. #coleg

I was proud to introduce #HB1009 - Full transparency across the insulin supply chain in 2018. It passed the House and was narrowly defeated in the Senate. I look forward to working on that issue in 2019 along with more of these ideas from the @AmDiabetesAssn ! #coleg #Insulin4all

NEW AD 🎥 : I wrote and passed the bill that made Colorado the first state in the country to cap the cost of insulin because taking on special interests to do the right thing for families like Julie's is what this job is about. As your State Senator, I'll always work for you.

I have respect for my GOP colleagues. However, their attempt to allege accused legislators have not received a fair process is false and disingenuous. Independent investigations were conducted per our rules. If you don’t want to expel then vote no, but don’t twist facts. #coleg

CO constitution specifically describes #COleg expulsion as a separate process from a criminal prosecution: "...punishment for contempt or disorderly behavior shall not bar a prosecution for the same offense." Senate R's propose expulsion should be contingent on conviction. #9NEWS

Saying a bill is “unconstitutional” is a serious allegation made by @RMGunOwners . I asked if there was precedent that says #ERPO laws are unconstitutional. Hint: There’s not. Every court that has considered them has upheld Red Flag laws as constitutional. #coleg #COpolitics

@Dylan_RobertsCO challenging @RMGunOwners Brown assertion that other states w/red flag laws violate due process. Says case law has said it's constitutional. Brown: I'm not attorney. Part of due process is that you have to be represented by atty. #coleg #ERPO @colo_politics

In beautiful Steamboat Springs today with @Dylan_RobertsCO . Guess what's top of mind for everyone? Health care. During a pandemic, Cory Gardner wants to rip health care away from 2.4 million people. In the Senate, I'll actually fight to expand coverage and lower costs.

Thrilled to see one of the presidential candidates highlighting the outrageous price of insulin and the dire need to change how we do pharmaceutical pricing in this country! People are dying when they don’t have to. Time to act. #insulin4all
