2nd Congressional District
Incumbent U.S. Rep. Joe Neguse is running for reelection in Colorado’s 2nd Congressional District. Neguse, a lawyer and the son of Eritrean refugees, is the first and so far only Black American to serve Colorado in Congress. Prior to his election to Congress, Neguse served as a University of Colorado Regent representing the 2nd District and a legislative aide under Colorado Speaker of the House Andrew Romanoff.
Rep. Neguse is the former vice-chair of the Congressional Progressive Caucus, and currently serves as Chair of the Democratic Policy and Communications Committee, in addition to serving on the Rules, Natural Resources and Judiciary Committees. Neguse advocates for bold progressive policies to address the most pressing issues facing our nation, such as Medicare for All and the Green New Deal. His priorities to date in Congress have included lowering prescription drug prices, raising workers’ wages, ensuring greater accountability in government, and protecting public lands, which make up over 50% of his district.
In Rep. Neguse's first two-year term in office after election to Congress in 2018, he introduced more legislation than any freshman lawmaker in the country and has had more legislation signed into law than any member of Colorado’s congressional delegation. As a member of the House Judiciary Committee, Neguse played a key role in holding former President Donald Trump accountable in Trump's second impeachment trial. Before Congress, Neguse fought to expand opportunities for families across Colorado in a variety of roles: as a co-founder of New Era Colorado, the state’s largest youth voter registration and mobilization nonprofit; as a six-term member of CU’s Board of Regents; and as leader of the state’s consumer protection agency for two years.
Neguse is a self-described eternal optimist who will continue to provide Colorado’s 2nd Congressional District with enthusiastic, diligent, and bold representation if reelected.
Rep. Neguse's Republican opponent, Marshall Dawson, is the vice-chairman of the Boulder County Republicans with no elected experience, and is considered a placeholder candidate in a race where Republicans have no realistic chance at winning.
Rep. Joe Neguse has proven himself to be the clear progressive choice for Colorado.

3rd Congressional District
Adam Frisch is running for Congress in Colorado's 3rd Congressional District, a seat currently held by one of the most controversial members of Congress, Rep. Lauren Boebert, who announced in December of 2023 she would run in the 4th District rather than face Frisch in a rematch after barely winning the race by 546 votes in 2022. Before running for Congress, Frisch served the residents of Aspen and Pitkin County as an Aspen city councilor and the chairman of the Pitkin County financial review committee. Frisch is a graduate of the University of Colorado at Boulder with a degree in economics.
If elected, Frisch has promised to lead with the priorities of the Third District first and partisan considerations second, and has vowed to represent stakeholders on all sides of the economic and environmental issues affecting Western and Southern Colorado.
Frisch's Republican opponent Jeff Hurd is an attorney with the Ireland Stapleton firm based in Grand Junction and has no experience in elected office. Hurd has expressed support for Donald Trump's anti-immigrant and natural resource exploitation agenda. Hurd was endorsed in the GOP primary by a number of Republican elected officials over Boebert including former Gov. Bill Owens.
The Third Congressional District is drawn with a significant but not insurmountable Republican advantage. Adam Frisch is without question the better candidate to represent the Third Congressional District.

4th Congressional District
Trisha Calvarese is running for Congress to represent Colorado's 4th Congressional District. Calvarese grew up in Highlands Ranch, Colorado, before graduating from Johns Hopkins University. Calvarese has worked for the AFL-CIO and the National Science Foundation. Calvarese is running on a platform of protecting Medicare and Social Security and championing rural communities in need of support for aging infrastructure and environmental risks like wildfires.
Calvarese's opponent, Rep. Lauren Boebert is one of the most polarizing and least effective members of Congress ever elected by Colorado voters. Rep. Boebert's first two terms in office were virtually devoid of accomplishments for the Third District, with Boebert repeatedly claiming credit for funding she voted against. Dissatisfaction with Boebert's representation and growing personal scandals forced Boebert to switch to run in the 4th Congressional District. After winning the CD-4 primary without majority support, Rep. Boebert has campaigned with controversial and discredited far-right members of Congress like Reps. Matt Gaetz of Florida over her own constituents. Rep. Boebert has also been repeatedly cited by campaign finance regulators for use of campaign funds for personal interests.
Trisha Calvarase is the clear moral and ethical choice to represent the 4th Congressional District.

5th Congressional District
River Gassen is the Democratic candidate running for Congress in Colorado's 5th Congressional District. Gassen is a graduate of the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs, currently teaching in the astronomy department. Gassen is a researcher working with the CU BioFrontiers Institute, "a unique interdisciplinary community of scientists driven by the mission of improving global health and welfare through collaborative, boundary-pushing bioscience."
Gassen is running for Congress to protect reproductive rights, essential programs like food assistance and Medicaid, and remediating the effects of human-caused climate change. Gassen offers leadership from a STEM educational background and making the American dream of affordable housing and access to health care a reality for everyone in Colorado's 5th District.
Gassen's opponent, right-wing talk radio host and longtime operative for the billionaire-funded conservative group Americans For Prosperity, Jeff Crank, was recently endorsed by ex-President Donald Trump after defeating the previously Trump-endorsed candidate Dave Williams in the Republican primary. Before that endorsement, Crank was fiercely opposed by MAGA Colorado Republicans over his support for Nikki Haley in the Republican presidential race. Crank's employer Americans for Prosperity said that Trump will "do irreparable damage to the country" if elected President again.
River Gassen is the clear champion for progressive values in the 5th Congressional District.

6th Congressional District
Incumbent U.S. Rep. Jason Crow, a lawyer and former Army Ranger who completed three tours in Iraq and Afghanistan, is running for reelection in Colorado's 6th Congressional District. In 2018, he defeated longtime Republican incumbent Mike Coffman to become the first Democrat ever to represent this district.
Before serving in Congress, Crow spent years helping veterans like himself who struggled to receive benefits, focusing his work on veteran homelessness and substance abuse issues. Then, during his first term, Crow stepped into the national spotlight as one of the seven impeachment managers who argued for Donald Trump’s removal from office during the Senate trial. Crow made the case that Trump put both Ukraine’s safety and the U.S.’s national security at risk by withholding military aid in exchange for political favors. Today, Rep. Crow is the co-chair of the investigative committee into the assassination attempt against former President Donald Trump.
Crow’s district is the most diverse in Colorado, with 1 in 5 residents being born outside the United States; Crow has said this is what makes his community such a special place to live. He supports protecting DREAMers and passing comprehensive immigration reform and has called for Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to end its contracts with private prison companies.
Crow has worked on instituting campaign finance reform. The first bill he sponsored, the End Dark Money Act, would prevent mega-donors from being able to hide their political contributions. His other priorities include preventing gun violence, combatting the effects of climate change, ensuring small businesses are able to thrive, and fighting for a bold investment in America’s infrastructure. Crow has been a key vote in favor of major infrastructure, LGBTQ+ rights, and voting rights legislation passed during the Biden administration.
Rep. Crow's Republican opponent John Fabbricatore is a former Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent running on an almost exclusively anti-immigrant platform. Fabbricatore has been a principal source of misinformation about the presence of foreign gangs in Aurora, which has been amplified by former President Donald Trump and condemned by fellow Republicans in Aurora city government. Fabbricatore hosted a campaign event with Rep. Lauren Boebert and national Republicans in Aurora to further spread false information about crime in the city.
Rep. Crow has served the residents of the 6th Congressional District with distinction and is the clear progressive choice in this race.

7th Congressional District
Incumbent Rep. Brittany Pettersen is running for a second term representing Colorado's 7th Congressional District. Pettersen has represented the west Denver suburbs since her original election in 2012 to the Colorado House, then succeeding Sen. Andy Kerr in Senate District 22 in 2019.
In Congress and her previous career in the Colorado General Assembly, Pettersen has been a leading advocate for criminal justice reform and combating the opioid addiction crisis that threatens communities across the state and nation. Pettersen helped pass landmark Equal Pay for Equal Work legislation which has been modeled in other states. Pettersen was one of the sponsors of the Colorado Option health insurance reform measure intended to reduce premiums on the individual market by up to 20%. In Congress, Petterson has promised to fight for the repeal of the 2017 Trump Tax Cuts and a fairer tax policy for all Americans. Pettersen currently serves on the House Financial Services Committee, and is the Vice Ranking Member of the Subcommittee on National Security, Illicit Finance, and International Financial Institutions.
Pettersen faces a range of minor candidates with little experience. Pettersen's Republican opponent is business owner Sergei Matveyuk. Former state Sen. Ron Tupa, who allied himself with Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s failed presidential campaign, is an unaffiliated candidate in this race.
Pettersen is far and away the superior candidate to continue to provide strong progressive leadership to the 7th Congressional District.
