Fourth-Generation Coloradan, Mom, Army veteran, proud American. Democrat running to flip CO-05. Let’s bring character and courage back to Congress!
There are only 106 days until November 3rd. It’s going to take a ton of energy and work to win this, and we want you to be part of it! Please volunteer and/or come to an event to learn more about my vision and have your concerns and questions heard. Be sure to sign up at killinforcolorado.com/events
As a mother who had her daughter while I was working a full-time job and going to law school at night, I know the value of high-quality and affordable childcare.
Happy Furry Friend Friday! This pup is SO eager to get back to work now that we have resumed door-knocking for the general election! We are gonna need all hands (and paws) on deck to beat Jeff Crank in November, so be sure to sign up to volunteer at killinforcolorado.com/events.
This conflict has cost American taxpayers around $100 billion so far. To what end? Is the Iranian regime less extreme and answering to its people? Nope. Have we further eliminated/reduced its nuclear capabilities? Not according to President Trump (he told us that was achieved over a year ago).
It has officially been one year since we launched our campaign to restore competence, courage, and character to Congress. When I started this race, I believed deeply in this district and a better future for El Paso County, but I didn’t know if others would recognize the need for real change.
While Crank still refuses to host an in-person townhall, I have committed to having at least one in-person townhall every quarter, an open-door office policy, and a robust and responsive constituent mail program. A once-in-a-blue-moon "telephone townhall" is not what real representation looks like.
NEW AD: When I was in high school, my parents sat me down and told me that they didn’t have money for college. Raised in a middle-class household, I knew that if I wanted to achieve something in life, I had to earn it.
I am proud to have the support of Tom Seigel and admire his dedication to our shared American values. Too many politicians today have forgotten the importance of being representative for ALL Americans and leading with dignity and respect. I never will.
El Paso County is tired of the tribalism, chaos, and corruption that we are living through in our politics today. We need more politicians who can deliver actual results and focus on issues that really matter for working Coloradans- and that is exactly the type of Congresswoman I will be.
We had our first post-primary Coffee with Killin yesterday! Now that we are in full general-election mode, we will have many more upcoming events we would love to see you at. We need MORE volunteers to win this election! You can sign up at killinforcolorado.com/events
Happy Furry Friend Friday from Sadie! She is taking this race very seriously because she knows the future of our democracy is at stake… and because nothing is more serious to her than a good sense of style. Luckily, we have plenty of dog scarves!
I'm grateful for the endorsement of the Natural Resources Defense Council Action Fund. While Crank voted to sell off our public lands, I will also stand up for El Paso County's natural resources that are so critical to our community. @nrdcactionfund.org
I am so grateful for all the support I have received for this campaign. This race is only possible because this community and people all across Colorado and the country believe we can flip this seat for the first time in history and that we deserve better.
I was born the year Roe v. Wade was decided and have been lucky to live most of my life knowing I had autonomy over my own body. With Dobbs, that was taken away from women across the country, and too many are now lacking access to critical healthcare and economic opportunity.
We love graphs and data. We also love winning, taking our democracy back and actually delivering for the people of Colorado’s 5th. And this bar graph is telling us all we need to know. This race will be close—but it is 100% winnable.
This Congress has been one of the least effective Congresses in history. We need members of Congress who actually care about making Congress work and are not willing to cede their constitutional power to the executive branch.
Happy Furry Friend Friday from Junie! Junie thinks Jessica Killin is the purrrrfect candidate to tank Jeff Crank in November and put a check on this cat-astrophic administration.
Competence, courage, and character. These are the principles I have run my campaign on thus far, and the principles I will continue to run on through November. Thank you for this nomination, I do not take the responsibility lightly. Watch the full speech here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=rrhF...
WOW! Thank you El Paso County. Tonight, I am honored to have earned the Democratic nomination for Colorado’s Fifth Congressional District. Thank you to all the voters who participated in this primary election and the many volunteers and supporters who made this victory possible.
Happy Primary! We had a terrific final house party last night before election day. It was so great to see so many community members from all generations engaged and ready to flip this seat for the first time in history.
I'm thinking of everyone impacted by the Aspen Acres fire and our firefighters working to contain it. As wildfires and other extreme weather become more common, we must work to combat climate change and protect vulnerable communities through common-sense and fact-based policies.
Today’s the day! Don’t forget to turn in your ballot at a drop box or go to the polls by 7 pm. Make your voice heard!
It's Primary Eve! If you haven't voted yet, you have less than 24 hours to get your ballot in- let's do this!
We knocked over 2,000 doors this weekend! The primary election is TOMORROW, so if you haven't voted yet, make sure you get your ballot in! If you have, make your voice heard and volunteer! Canvassing is a great opportunity to speak with neighbors one-on-one about the importance of this election.
Whether you’re an early bird or a night owl, we have an event for you! This week, we had a great Doughnuts for Democracy event at our office and Cocktails with Killin in the Southeast! Check out our upcoming events before and after the primary at killinforcolorado.com/events
We just hit 10,000 doors knocked since April! Thank you to my incredible staff and volunteers for all their hard work getting out the vote and having meaningful conversations with our neighbors about my vision for the future of our community. Make sure to turn in your ballot by Tuesday, June 30th.
Jeff Crank is finally talking to people in Colorado… Unfortunately, not the people of CO-05. Instead, Crank is stepping onto a stage with election denier and convicted felon Tina Peters at a far-right event — and get this: it's not even happening in our district.
Congressmembers Deluzio, Houlahan, Lieu, and Ryan have all served their country in the military and now are serving our country in Congress. They share my values of patriotism and selfless service, and they know the American people deserve representatives who show up, listen, and deliver results.
We had a great canvass launch yesterday! I have so much gratitude for all of our volunteers. You can’t win if your supporters don’t vote, and our volunteers are making sure those ballots get in. If your ballot is currently sitting on your kitchen counter, don't forget to turn it in by Tuesday!
What a week….a House Party with @neguse.house.gov, a Cookies with Killin (innovation), another Coffee with Killin, and a Happy Hour! And we’re just getting started.
