From A-Basin to Wolf Creek, Colorado’s National Forests are home to some of the best skiing in the world. @SenJohnBarrasso and I reintroduced our bipartisan SHRED Act to keep ski fees local, bolster CO’s outdoor recreation economy, and help our mountain communities thrive.

In today's confirmation hearing for Jamieson Greer, Trump's Trade Representative nominee, I emphasized that the U.S. cannot tariff our way to prosperity. We must renew critical partnerships & promote economic security through policies like my and @SenBillCassidy's Americas Act.

President Trump repudiated his dangerous proposal to deploy U.S. troops to “take over” the Gaza Strip after his plan received worldwide backlash and criticism. He must also abandon his plan for the U.S. to seize Gaza and eject its two million people to build the “Riviera of the Middle East.”

DOGE’s access to classified data - including the sensitive personal information of Americans - is unprecedented and deeply concerning. I joined my Senate Intel Committee colleagues to demand answers on this major threat to American privacy and national security.
It’s a huge threat to your privacy and national security to let unvetted DOGE bros paw through government payments and Americans’ bank account numbers. I’m leading Intel Committee members to press directly on the White House about this absurd overreach.

I met with @douglascountyco to discuss our work to tackle the most pressing issues affecting CO, including increasingly severe wildfires. Through the use of innovative solutions like wildfire helicopters, Douglas County is helping our state meet these unprecedented challenges.

USAID saves lives and is critical to U.S. national security. Alongside @SenTimKaine and my colleagues, I'm pushing for immediate answers about President Trump’s efforts to eliminate this critical agency.
USAID advances U.S. national security and helps ensure global stability. I’m deeply concerned about Musk and Trump’s attempt to destroy USAID. That's why I led my colleagues in a letter to Secretary of State Rubio demanding answers about this illegal and unprecedented action.
