Lauren Boebert delivers last-minute legislation for former Colorado district as she’s sworn in for new one

DENVER - As U.S. Representative Lauren Boebert began her new role in the Colorado delegation, she left behind a few key achievements from her previous stint representing a different Colorado district, but a challenging electoral landscape still lay ahead for her.

On the West Slope, President Joe Biden signed it as part of the larger National Defense Authorization Act.

A bill sponsored by Boebert instructs the Bureau of Land Management to sell 31 acres in Clifton to Mesa County for economic development purposes.

These bipartisan efforts, though not widely publicized, will significantly improve the health of our state, which is a top priority for me in my role as a lawmaker,

This rugged terrain encompasses a vast stretch of mountains in western Colorado, extending from Craig to Cortez to Pueblo on the Front Range.

Not surprisingly, they won over voters in the reliably Republican 3rd Congressional District.

After engaging in unacceptable conduct, including vaping and making unwanted physical advances towards her date, several high-ranking Republican officials in the state publicly distanced themselves from her.

A new bill aimed at assigning zip codes to unassigned communities in the country, such as Lone Tree, Castle Pines and Severance, successfully moved through the House, but stalled in the Senate last month.

Representative Boebert's bill to conserve the humpback chub, bonytail, Colorado pikeminnow, and razorback sucker fish species became a law. The legislation held significance for Melvin Baker, the chairman of the Southern Ute Indian Tribe.

The tribe recognizes themselves as guardians of the earth, stating their dedication to helping endangered fish populations thrive and preserving waterways for their safety.

Now that both houses of Congress are controlled by Republicans, Representative Boebert is optimistic she'll be able to pass more legislation than she could while dealing with a Congress that's divided along party lines.

She said that no place will be more missed than representing the people of Colorado's 3rd District who supported her even before her run for office, especially through her work as a business owner and advocate. "And it may seem minor, but I'll especially miss the breathtaking sunsets in Rifle."
