HICKENLOOPER FOR COLORADO

Donate to STOP Cory Gardner >>

Help Hick Win in Colorado!

Ad copy

First: Mitch McConnell stated Trump’s Supreme Court nominee would receive a Senate vote. Then: Trump pressured Cory Gardner to stay “loyal to the party” and confirm his SCOTUS nominee. Now: Gardner JUST announced his plans to confirm Trump’s nominee. We can’t let Senate Republicans put another far-right justice on the bench before we flip the Senate. Donate now to help Hick flip Colorado:
