As the 119th Congress gets to work, Colorado members look to advance national priorities and local interests

Republicans will be focused on reconciliation to get their main priorities accomplished, while Democrats plan to focus on bipartisan issues.

The start of a new Congress is like the start of the new year: Everyone is excited and filled with plans and resolutions, including Colorado’s congressional delegation.

Rep. Gabe Evans said he’s “just looking forward to rolling up our sleeves and getting to work on those crucial items that the American people sent us here to do.” The newly elected Republican from the 8th Congressional District described that as “specifically around things like border security, public safety and making sure that we’re working on the cost of living.”
