Did you know that by switching to solar energy, Americans could save over $1.3K a year?
That's why I'm excited to see
@COEnergyOffice
receive +$155M from the Inflation Reduction Act to bring solar energy to low-income communities, ensuring savings & resilience for Coloradoans.
This week marked a significant step forward for our energy independence & environmental sustainability.
Grateful to
@POTUS
for signing my bill into law & helping us harness the full potential of clean, reliable, & efficient power for generations to come.
I was honored to keynote
@BPC_Bipartisan
's Climate & Trade Summit this afternoon.
As the top Democrat on the Energy & Commerce Committee’s Energy Subcommittee, I’m thankful for the Center's advocacy as we work in a bipartisan manner towards a clean energy future.
Thrilled to announce that Denver will receive over $14.1 million from
@HHSGov
for its Head Start programs!
This vital funding will ensure children in our community get the early education and wrap-around services they need to live successful lives.
Earlier, I signed the ADVANCE Act, a bipartisan win for American energy security, innovation, and achieving economy-wide, net-zero emissions by 2050.
Clean nuclear power and good union jobs.
That's what the ADVANCE Act will help deliver.
Wishing you a safe and happy July 4!
As we celebrate the birth of our country, we also remember the fundamental values our nation was built on: freedom, unity, and justice.
“A democracy cannot thrive where power remains unchecked and justice is reserved for a select few.” - Congressman John Lewis.
OTD in 1964, the Civil Rights Act was signed into law.
Sixty years later, I’m working every day to uphold the legacy of my friend, the late Rep. Lewis.
What's happened in the two years since Dobbs?
27 million women are living under abortion bans.
Doctors are being criminalized.
IVF and birth control are under attack.
We are at a crossroads. We must choose freedom over extremism.
Great news! $75M is on the way to CO from the CHIPS & Science Act to bolster our semiconductor manufacturing industry.
Proud to have voted for this bill which will create 1,100 new jobs in CO, boost our competitiveness & secure our domestic supply chain.
Accessible and affordable housing is the bedrock for healthy and successful lives.
