Dear Neighbor, Like many of you, I have long believed that the best way to get things done is by working with folks of all political stripes to find common ground, forge consensus, and identify ways to make progress. More than ever, we must foster greater collaboration and dialogue with those who sometimes we may not always agree — which is precisely why I was honored to be named as the country's No. 18 most bipartisan Member of the House of Representatives, and the No. 1 most bipartisan member of Colorado's congressional delegation. You can read more about the rankings here. The work our office does on behalf of the people of Colorado's 2nd District, spans across 12 counties and is driven by our desire to deliver the best solutions for our communities—and that requires extending the hand of partnership whenever possible. With many challenges impacting our families across our state, we will continue to do what we've always done and remain committed to tackling the issues of real importance. Keep reading to learn more about other exciting updates!
Dear Neighbor,
Like many of you, I have long believed that the best way to get things done is by working with folks of all political stripes to find common ground, forge consensus, and identify ways to make progress.

The work our office does on behalf of the people of Colorado's 2nd District, spans across 12 counties and is driven by our desire to deliver the best solutions for our communities—and that requires extending the hand of partnership whenever possible. With many challenges impacting our families across our state, we will continue to do what we've always done and remain committed to tackling the issues of real importance.

Photo by Chris Dillmann for the Vail Daily. | As we approach Memorial Day, let us remember and honor the brave Americans who gave everything to defend our great nation. The courageous men and women who lost their lives to protect our freedoms and defend our country.
We must continue to ensure the support our veterans, service members, and their families deserve. Last year, I was proud to have President Biden sign my bill, Mental Health for Military Families Act, into law. This law works to expand access to critical mental health services for Colorado's military families.
Our office will keep working to make sure that our Colorado veterans and the families of our fallen service members are heard in Congress. | This week, I led a letter with Senators Michael Bennet and John Hickenlooper to USPS officials in Denver and Washington to request that P.O. box fees for eligible residents of Steamboat Springs be eliminated. Since the USPS does not offer home mail delivery to many households in Steamboat, they must stop charging unfair P.O. box rental fees. Read my letter to the officials HERE.

After the departure of my colleague Rep. Ken Buck, it was a privilege to assist his communities — a big congrats to Skye Little Cloud from Longmont & Chloe Schaal from Loveland. See all the winning works HERE.
- Recently, I had the opportunity to visit with mayors and county commissioners from across Colorado's 2nd District to discuss the issues facing our communities and how we can work together to address them. By working with our local leaders, our offices are better equipped in addressing the needs of our communities.
- Secure Rural Schools funding is critically important in our rural and mountain communities. Our office is continuing to work with lawmakers in Washington to protect the longevity of this critical program. Read more about our efforts HERE.
- The Military Academy nomination application for Colorado's 2nd Congressional District is now open! Learn more about the selection process and deadlines HERE.
Should you need any assistance from our office, please do not hesitate to reach out. Please stay safe, stay healthy, and stay hopeful! Sincerely, | | | | Joe Neguse Member of Congress | | | |
