1,877 miles across Colorado. (Lots of pics inside!)

Team,

Six days. 1,877 miles. 20+ stops & counties. Thousands of Coloradans.

This month, we joined the Colorado Dems on their 2026 Statewide Bus Tour to speak to voters, get out the vote, and help get Democrats elected up and down the ballot this year. Watch our recap video here!

Our wonderful chariot.

On day one, we started out in Fort Morgan where we were welcomed with open arms by folks who are fed up with Trump’s tariffs and high diesel prices crushing farmers and ranchers. They’re ready to vote blue this November to end the war and lower prices! Such great energy here and a wonderful first stop to kick off our bus tour.

Thank you Fort Morgan Dems 💙

Then, we were off to Commerce City Rocky Mountain Arsenal to visit Adams County Dems and talk about how important this fight is.

Us with Adams County Dems braving the cold.

Last stop on day one: Aurora!

Thank you for joining us, Arapahoe County.

Day two started off on a high note in Frisco where Summit County showed us how it’s done. (and foreshadowed meeting pups along the way!)

The highlight of day two.

Then onto Edwards ‘Get out the Bark’ event where we saw lots of cute pups whose owners are ready to elect candidates who are committed to protecting our public lands and preserving our watersheds.

Eagle County knows how to show up!

At a gorgeous stop in Glenwood Springs, we met a lot of friendly Garfield County folks who are excited to use their voice and vote.

And we had some pretty good BBQ too!

We finished off the day at DemWest in Palisade where Mesa County Dems welcomed us with a beautiful view and great food & drinks. People all over the state know what we need to do this November: vote blue all the way so we can flip the House, flip the Senate, and take back our democracy that Trump is relentlessly attacking.

Palisade sure is gorgeous this time of year!

To kick off day three, we attended a No Kings rally in Montrose and met so many people who are fed up with Trump’s broken promises and corrupt agenda.

Montrose County knows: No Kings. Ever.

After an energizing No Kings rally, we headed to the beautiful city of Telluride and got to soak in some stunning views while we talked about the importance of voting with San Miguel County Dems.

Highlight of day three: delicious s’mores!

From Telluride, we went down to Towaoc to meet with the Ute Mountain Ute Tribe. We’ll always fight for clean water, healthcare, and internet access for the Ute Mountain Ute.

Thank you Ute Mountain Ute for welcoming us.

To close out day three, we visited Durango and were welcomed by a whole bunch of fired up La Plata County Dems ready for a change.

Thanks for spending your Saturday evening with us, Durango.

Onward and upward to day four!

We started off bright and early in Ignacio, meeting with the Southern Ute Tribe. We talked about fighting for the federal resources we helped secure for the Tribe that the Trump administration disgracefully reversed. We look forward to continuing our meaningful collaboration to ensure they have all the resources they need.

Of course, we had to get a picture with everyone in front of the bus.

Then, we had a quick coffee stop at Pagosa Springs Baking Company!

Shoutout to the nice folks who own this tasty place for coming out to say hi!

After a fun stop in Pagosa Springs, we headed South to Alamosa where we were greeted by our good friend Ken Salazar and the great folks of Alamosa County. They know exactly how important this fight is.

It’s always a treat to see our friend Ken.

Walsenburg kept the energy up in Huerfano County! They’re ready to elect Dems up and down the ballot so we can stop the senseless corruption coming out of the White House.

P.S. Thanks for the goody bags!

Onto DemZest in Pueblo where the energy was unmatched in southern Colorado. Folks are as excited as we are to flip the House, flip the Senate, and take back our democracy that Trump has been attacking since he got back into office.

Pueblo knows how to show up (and make great green chili!)

Afterwards, Colorado Springs and Army Veteran Jessica Killin gave us a warm sendoff into our next day. Jessica is the fighter Colorado Springs deserves. She’ll help us lower prices, stop the illegal war in Iran, and fix our healthcare system.

Our next Congresswoman of CO-5.

Day five kicked off in Firestone where we met up with yet another exceptional Congressional candidate that needs to go to Washington: Manny Rutinel.

Our next CO-8 Congressman!

Weld County knows we need to flip these four House seats blue so we can protect Colorado.

In Loveland, a whole bunch of lovely folks showed up to show us how excited they are to send MAGA packing come Election Day.

Thanks for showing up, Loveland. 💙

Finally, on day six in Broomfield we met up with Congresswoman Brittany Pettersen and Jefferson County Dems where they started our final day of our bus tour off on a high note.

What a great day to get out the vote!

Sadly, our bus tour was coming to a close but fortunately Arvada was there to give us a warm sendoff!

Watch our recap video here!

We are so grateful for everyone who came out and for all the great candidates who know what it takes to protect Colorado from the Trump administration and its cruel attacks against our great state. We are going to flip the House, flip the Senate, and finally take back our democracy from this corrupt president and his cruel administration.

The thousands of folks we met on this great trip prove this state is ready for a change – get out there and vote!

As always,

Thank you for standing with us.
