I'm pleased by Postmaster DeJoy's announcement that U.S. Postal Service will pause changes to processing facilities across the U.S., including in Grand Junction.

The U.S. has long failed to adequately fund and maintain the Pine River Indian Irrigation Project.

I traveled to Ignacio with Bureau of Reclamation Commissioner Touton to welcome $2.3M from BOR’s WaterSMART program to ensure the Southern Ute Indian Tribe can access the water it needs.

USAF’s proposal to transfer National Guard units to the Space Force without governor approval threatens to undo over 120 years of precedent.

With Rep. Jason Crow, Senator John Hickenlooper, and 82 bipartisan, bicameral colleagues, I’m opposing this flawed proposal.
