Rep. Yadira Caraveo is the incumbent running for re-election in Colorado's 8th Congressional District, one of the most evenly-divided and competitive congressional districts in the nation. After narrowly defeating her Republican opponent state Sen. Barb Kirkmeyer in 2022, the 8th District is once again one of the most important congressional races of 2024.
Dr. Caraveo is a pediatrician who graduated from the University of Colorado School of Medicine. Caraveo was raised in Adams County and is the daughter of Mexican immigrants. In Congress, Rep. Caraveo serves on the House Committee on Science, Space, and Technology and Agriculture Committees. In the Colorado House, Caraveo played a major role in the passage of health coverage, prescription drug affordability, education, economic development, and legislation to reduce toxic air pollution. Caraveo is a proven supporter of abortion rights, helping pass legislation to protect abortion rights in Colorado ahead of the Supreme Court's reversal of Roe v. Wade.
Rep. Caraveo's opponent, freshman state Rep. Gabe Evans, is a far-right conservative endorsed by Donald Trump running on an unapologetic anti-abortion, anti-worker, and anti-public education campaign. The product of homeschooling and the right-wing Patrick Henry University, is has attempted to conceal his extreme background and agenda in order to run for Congress in Colorado's most competitive congressional district. Evans says that the right to abortion is "ridiculous," and falsely claimed "Aurora Has Fallen" to appease Trump at Colorado's expense. Evans recently fired his top political director after her record of racist and violent rhetoric was exposed by local media.
Yadira Caraveo represents the very best in elected leadership in Colorado today, and is the easy choice to recommend for re-election to represent Colorado's 8th Congressional District.
