Press Releases
Below please find a statement from Rep. Jason Crow following his vote to end the government shutdown.
"This shutdown is unnecessary and reckless and Congress has a responsibility to resolve it ASAP. It's why I supported a bipartisan bill that would allow all 20,000 Coloradans furloughed or working without pay to return to work.
"As a former Army Ranger, I take our national security seriously and support funding border security - all of which this bill does. What I don't support is a cheap election gambit by President Trump to fund an ineffective and immoral wall.
Rep. Jason Crow today joined the new House Democratic majority in introducing H.R. 1, the For the People Act, a sweeping package of reforms that will change balance of power in Washington and put the American people back in charge of our democracy. The three-pronged reform package will address voting rights, campaign finance reforms and ethics reform.
H.R. 1 offers some of the most transformational and comprehensive democracy reforms in more than four decades and follows through on a major Democratic midterm election promise to clean up the chaos and corruption Washington.
Today, former army ranger Jason Crow was sworn into the United States House of Representatives. As a first-time candidate, this is Crow's first time holding office. During the event, Rep. Crow was joined by his wife Deserai Crow and two children, Anderson and Josephine.
