This is 78-year-old Pastor Edward Nalwamba. He fled persecution in Uganda for his pro-democracy beliefs and has spent decades living and preaching in America. ICE detained him for 13 months. Today, ahead of his release, our staff visited the detention facility and asked GEO staff to let him call his caretakers and provide a wheelchair to get him to his ride home. He cannot walk. GEO staff assured us they would do both. They failed to deliver on either. No phone call. No wheelchair. No human decency. There is no excuse for this cruelty. None. While we are celebrating Pastor Nalwamba’s release, we will not stop holding those responsible for this accountable. (Photo courtesy of Joy Athanasiou, attorney for Pastor Edward Nalwamba)

Trump’s sweetheart deal with Putin is as backwards and corrupt as it gets. He continues to sell our country out and does nothing that will make your life affordable.

Ways we can lower costs for Americans:  → Reverse MAGA’s cruel healthcare cuts  → End Trump’s illegal war with Iran → End Trump’s reckless tariffs  → Reinvest in clean energy  → Expand childcare  All things we’ll continue fighting for.

If Big Tech wants to build a data center, Big Tech should pay for it. If President Trump agrees, why hasn't he endorsed Senate Democrats’ proposal requiring data centers to pay for their grid infrastructure, the same measure Senate Republicans have refused to bring up for a vote? This administration's policies are driving energy prices through the roof. Americans need real protections, not more empty promises. wsj.com/politics/policy/trum…

We need a free press to hold this White House accountable a whole lot more than President Trump needs a second swimming pool. Yet another potential vanity project and distraction from a president who seems focused on everything but lowering costs for American families. nytimes.com/2026/10/20/us/po…

Trump thought gas prices would be even higher and still started a war with no plan to end it.

When we started Free Application Day in Colorado as Governor, we aimed to tear down barriers that prevented Colorado kids from pursuing a college education.  The results have spoken for themselves. Millions in waived application fees each year, helping kids reach their full potential.  cbsnews.com/colorado/news/co…

Practical problems require practical solutions. All thanks to our Bipartisan Infrastructure Law.  More of government doing this ⬇️
A wildlife crossing in Colorado has helped reduce animal-vehicle collisions by a staggering 91% in just 10 months. The $15 million bridge is currently North America's largest wildlife overpass, spanning six lanes of Interstate 25.

Coloradans have paid $2 BILLION more on gas since Trump started his illegal war with Iran.  High prices like this are unsustainable. We need to end the Iran War NOW.
