Hell yeah. I want to applaud @MikeJohnstonCO for laying the path forward for local communities to pursue universal childcare. TABOR makes it exceedingly challenging, and I’m hopeful the task force will develop a repeatable model that communities across the front range can follow.

250 years ago, 56 ordinary people signed their own death warrant for the radical idea that free people should govern themselves.
They left us a responsibility.
Patriotism means believing America is worth perfecting.
The rest of the story belongs to us. 🇺🇸

Tomorrow night, Longmont will proclaim June as #PrideMonth.
Since Stonewall, Pride has been both celebration and demand: that LGBTQIA+ people deserve to live safely, openly, joyfully, and with dignity.

Early childhood education is essential infrastructure. It’s time we started treating it that way.
That’s why I’m proud to help launch Brighter Start Boulder County, a coalition working toward a solution to lower costs and ensure families can build a life

I’m proud to endorse @MichaelBennet for Governor because I believe he’ll be a real partner for Longmont on affordability, housing, early childhood education, healthcare, and transportation.
Michael has the clearest vision to actually deliver for working families. #teambennet
Just sent my latest newsletter about staying focused on why I ran: affordability, working families, housing, public trust, and a Longmont where people can put down roots.

Going through old archives and found this 1985 @WhiteHouse correspondents dinner program with my late Grandpa Robert Mann (then Sen. Ted Kennedy’s press secretary) sitting next to @RogerJStoneJr and just got curious whether Roger knew or has any memories of my dear late GPA Bob
We are finally less than 1,000 days from securing a train from Longmont to Denver. Thanks to the incredible work of Gov. @jaredpolis, his team, FRPR, and community leaders who’ve kept this fight up for years, CoCo is headed towards reality.

Earlier today, I shared my latest newsletter reflecting on MLK Day, the work I’ve been focused on over the last month, and why showing up locally still matters.

Appreciate the Times-Call running my op-ed on the crisis facing our kids and working families. This is a moment for choosing. Delay causes permanent damage. In the weeks ahead, I’ll push for real, local solutions that protect families and providers.

Trump is freezing child care and food assistance in Colorado to settle political scores — and kids in communities like Longmont are paying the price. Families lose care. Providers face closure. I won’t accept this chaos, and I’ll fight to protect Longmont families and caregivers.

John Hickenlooper has failed Longmont. Julie Gonzales will fight for us every day, stand up to corporate power, and deliver real results. That’s why I’m proud to endorse @SenadoraJulie for U.S. Senate. Join us in Boulder later this month: secure.actblue.com/donate/ju…
