Walked past a woman today whose dress was way too tight, way too short, and way too low cut for the Capitol.
Totally inappropriate.
I gotta make sure to not walk past that mirror again.
During closings, around 1 am, my colleague (who I was facing) told me @MomsDemand were standing behind me. I know it was in solidarity. Thank you.♥️
I’m sorry that most Dem leadership does not want to ban assault weapons—yet. They never will, unless you make them.
On we press.
❣️A decade of tireless service—thank you @shannonrwatts for the labor of love that we call @MomsDemand. It’s my honor to help advance our work.
Colorado Moms Demand Action has always had my back; and I know they know—I’ll always have theirs.
# of days before I cried at Capitol: 11. Can’t believe it took that long, tbh. Luckily only 2 ppl saw. Others will soon enough.
Spare me the “never let ‘em see you cry” nonsense. Depression + anxiety + racism = a lot to manage—but I know what I was sent here to do.
On we press.
Proud to be a cosponsor at introduction of the bill to finally repeal Colorado’s prohibition on rent control.
(Figure I’d fly under the radar my 1st term, not touch anything controversial.)
@javier_mabrey & @Velasco4CO told us what they came here to do. And they’re doing it.✊🏽

but seriously, I don’t.
Losses hurt so bad, I forget to celebrate our Wins.
🏆4 years, 3 bills, and today Gov. signed liberatory bipartisan HB23-1151.
48-hour bond hearings is law of the land in Colorado! coloradofreedomfund.org/hb23-1151
🏛️We did it. HB24-1292 is on its way to the Senate.
I’ve been working on this legislatively since November 2022. and today, our bill to define assault weapons + prohibit their manufacture/sale passed Colorado House of Representatives.
Saving lives >>> saving seats.
On we press.
✅ UPDATE: After 6+ hours of testimony, HB23-1202 Local Control of Life-Saving Overdose Prevention Centers just passed the Public Health Cmte 8-3.
We love you, Colorado.
➡️ Next stop: House Floor…
SB23-190 prohibits deceptive trade practices at anti-abortion clinics.
Their deceptive tactics harm pregnant people, just as racist transphobic rhetoric used to defend those clinics incites violence against vulnerable people.
Blatant lies. Fear-mongering. I won’t be complicit.
