Thank you for being here and for trusting me to represent you.

It is an honor to serve you in Congress representing Colorado’s 4th Congressional District and fight every day for liberty, the Constitution, hard work, and common sense. In Washington the swamp never sleeps — and neither do I.

I am focused on delivering results for 4th District communities, supporting farmers, ranchers, and rural hospitals, fixing roads and bridges, making life more affordable by reducing costs, strengthening local schools, and improving access to quality health care.

Highlights from this week: I conducted my oversight duties at the DOGE Subcommittee hearing on fraud and failures in federally funded homelessness services. I spoke on the House floor in favor of two bipartisan bills, the Ratepayer Protection Act so the cost of powering data centers does not  burden Colorado families and the Water Resources Development Act (WRDA), which included my Finish the Arkansas Valley Conduit legislation.  

Thank you for standing with me.  Together we will keep draining the swamp and putting Colorado first.

For freedom,

Congresswoman Lauren Boebert
