The new Bruce Canyon Reservoir and other Cucharas Basin Storage Collaborative water projects will be transformational for our communities. These locally-driven solutions will add thousands of acre-feet of water storage.

Biden has waged an all-out war on American energy, and we are all paying the price for it. Gas is $4 a gallon again, and moms are spending more than $75 dollars to fill up their minivans. The worst part about it is this administration still doesn’t have a plan. I’ve had enough of this nonsense. It’s time to reduce inflation, lower gas prices, stop raiding the Strategic Petroleum Reserve, and drill, baby, drill.

Petty Officer Second Class Zach Loesch is an American hero, and he deserves to be treated as such. Due to the vaccine mandate, his rescue mission responding to Hurricane Ian may be his last, as he is set to be involuntarily discharged in 30 to 60 days. The federal government’s failure to respect religious freedom and allow these exemptions is causing the military to lose talented individuals like Petty Officer Loesch. It’s time to end these mandates and support our troops’ religious freedom!

It is inexcusable that some of our veterans were unable to get medical treatment for more than a year and a half because Biden’s bureaucrats were sitting at home on the couch while the rest of America was working. It should shock no one that now that these public servants are back in the office, actual work is being done, the backlog is being significantly reduced, and our nation’s heroes are now getting the official records they need for benefits from a government agency in a timelier manner. While this is welcome news, it shouldn’t have taken multiple oversight efforts by Members of Congress to get federal employees back to work and to do their jobs. America’s veterans deserve better!

Congresswoman Lauren Boebert has actively led local stakeholders and Members of Congress in opposition to Biden’s proposed land grab.

Rather than working on real issues like reducing inflation and improving the economy, Joe Biden came to Colorado today to unilaterally lock up hundreds of thousands of acres through the stroke of his pen and prevent Coloradans from using our public lands for activities that we want and need. Shamefully, Biden ignored the concerns and opposition of impacted communities so he could appease Green New Deal extremists. Equally troubling, they hid their true motivations and failed to be transparent about the harm and restrictions that will result from this massive land grab. With gas prices skyrocketing, OPEC decreasing its oil production, and Americans already struggling to pay their utility bills, this land grab to shut down American energy and natural resources production could not come at a worse time.

Archuleta County Veterans Memorial Park is an important landmark in Pagosa Springs that honors our nation’s heroes. The park has some significant parking and accessibility needs. I am a strong supporter of our veterans and am trying to help the park with their needs so we can properly pay tribute to America’s local heroes.
