Our country was founded on the promise that if you work hard, you can earn a better life. But rising costs are putting that opportunity out of reach for hardworking families. In Congress I’m working to lower costs so every Coloradan can live their version of the American Dream.

The Americans with Disabilities Act was signed into law 34 years ago today to prohibit discrimination against individuals with disabilities. As a doctor, I will continue working to reduce health disparities and ensure high quality care is accessible for all Americans.

The outbreak of HPAI (bird flu) among poultry & daily workers in Colorado has been a major concern of mine in recent months. I'm eager to work with @SecBecerra to prevent the spread of this virus through extensive cooperation between HHS, CDC, and local public health agencies.

Uterine fibroids are extremely common, yet the cause is unknown. As a doctor in Congress, I’m proud to join my colleagues in highlighting the prevalence of uterine fibroids and the need for detection, treatment, and research. #FibroidAwarenessMonth

This morning, a shooting in Thornton left one man dead and one police officer hospitalized with serious injuries. I'm actively monitoring the situation and sending my thoughts and prayers to the officer and his family.

Since becoming law in 2012, the Veterans Skills to Jobs Act has helped our service members transition to civilian life after serving our nation. I’m eager to continue supporting new economic opportunities for veterans in Colorado and across the country.

Today, I joined my colleagues in a moment of silence on the floor of the House of Representatives to honor the late Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee. I'm grateful for her contributions to our country, and I'm glad to have served our nation together. May her memory be a blessing.

Today marks twelve years since the tragic massacre in Aurora that claimed the lives of a dozen of our neighbors and injured another 70 innocent theater-goers. May their memories be a blessing. We must never forget the horror experienced by the victims, survivors, and families.

176 years ago today, hundreds of women gathered in Seneca Falls to demand the right to vote. Their bravery and persistence in the face of injustice changed the world, and inspires me to keep fighting for equality every day.

Cómo doctora, sé que los jóvenes latinos se enfrentan a situaciones que ponen en riesgo su salud mental. Presenté un proyecto de ley que le dará a los jóvenes latinos los recursos que necesitan para tener acceso a mejores servicios de salud mental.

As the first Latina Doctor in the history of the US Congress, I introduced legislation to address the challenges young Latinos face when it comes to mental health care. As we commemorate #MinorityMentalHealthMonth , let’s break the stigma & make mental health more accessible.

Every child should feel safe at school. That’s why I’m proud to be a co-sponsor of the bipartisan Safe Schools Improvement Act. As a pediatrician, I recognize the need to protect our children so that they can focus on school.

Giant corporations shouldn’t stop farmers and ranchers from repairing their own cars, tractors, and farm equipment. I’m proud to support the Agricultural Right to Repair Act, securing farmers’ right to manage their own equipment repairs at their convenience.🔧⚙️
