Jena Griswold has also been avoiding EVERY SINGLE DEBATE AND FORUM hosted by Democrats and other legal organizations. Michael Dougherty, David Seligman, and Hetal Doshi show up to all or the vast majority of them. But Jena? She's avoiding all the debates and forums.

Congress should address the training requirements for ICE. The lack of adequate training has been a recipe for tragedy. washingtonpost.com/investigations…

The Attorney General represents the people of Colorado. That role is built on trust. When an Attorney General candidate claims personal credit for work they did not personally argue or lead, that is not a small exaggeration. It is a credibility issue.

Jena is now calling people who have endorsed this campaign and is pressuring them to drop their support because we are holding her accountable for misleading people over and over again. This is not how accountability works. Kyle Clark 9news.com/video/news/loc…

NEW: Mesa County District Attorney Dan Rubenstein (R) who prosecuted Tina Peters says Gov Jared Polis (D) giving Peters clemency "would be a gross injustice." Rubenstein points out that separate case cited by Polis to justify clemency misses the purpose of sentencing ranges.

As I have said before, and reiterate in my statement below, commuting Tina Peters' sentence would be a grave miscarriage of justice and is not appropriate given the seriousness of her crimes and lack of remorse.

Caucus is tomorrow! It is an honor to be running for AG. I will bring every ounce of my experience, passion and fight to that office. I will stand with the people of Colorado and lead with integrity. That’s what is needed to restore trust in our democracy.

I teamed up with DA Brian Mason on this Op-ed. When law enforcement uses lethal force, the integrity of the investigation that follows is important to the public trust. There must be independent, thorough investigations. No one is above the law. dailycamera.com/2026/02/19/ice…

I am filled with hope by the number of people and all the energy at each Assembly. Technical issues slowed the process but Coloradans persisted. It is a testament to the dedication people have to fighting for a better future.
