I'm Anna Stout and I’m running for Congress because the people of Western and Southern Colorado deserve better. While Lauren Boebert is focused on getting airtime as a MAGA mouthpiece, her constituents in CO-03 need a representative who will fight for them. Let's get to work 💪🏻

While the new resource center isn't the be-all and end-all of addressing homelessness, I'm proud to be working with these caring people to give back to our community. There's work to be done, but this is a big step in lifting up our houseless neighbors. coloradosun.com/2024/01/29/g…

Fifty-one years ago, SCOTUS decided in Roe that people with uteri have the right to make decisions about our own bodies. Nearly two years ago, a Trump-appointed SCOTUS ruled against us. Let's codify the right to self. #CO03 #copolitics #everybodyspolitics

On what should have been the 51st celebration of Roe v. Wade, we gathered to protect access to abortion in our constitution & address barriers people continue to face in CO. Everyone should have the care they need, regardless of where they live, their type of job, or insurance.

Today marks the 51st anniversary of Roe v. Wade. Since SCOTUS overturned this seminal ruling in 2022, we've seen Republican-controlled states work furiously to restrict abortion rights...

Today, we passed a resolution recognizing the anniversary of Roe v. Wade. Colorado has always been a national leader on abortion rights, let's keep it that way. 🧵More from Reps. @RepMegFroe & @RepLorenaGarcia #coleg #copolitics

Reproductive rights aren't *just* a healthcare issue, but a human rights issue. #CO03 #copolitics

One of my favorite holiday traditions is spending Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve doing ride-alongs with our police and fire departments. This year’s PD ride-along was incredibly eventful and I was so impressed watching how professionally everyone moved from call to call, even when the calls were heartbreaking or traumatic. I spent 10 hours with them on the swing shift and was so grateful they allowed me to watch them interact so patiently and compassionately with victims and people in crisis. On this #NationalLawEnforcementAppreciationDay, I'm incredibly grateful for the continued compassion and empathy shown by our @GrandJunctionPD. #CO03 #copolitics

Hi, everyone! It's 2024, and we're closing in on the primary election in June. Lauren Boebert was the driving factor for donations into CD-3, but now that she's gone, we need donations more than ever to flip this seat! Join me in my campaign to represent the wishes of ordinary people, not MAGA or corporate elites: #CO03 #copolitics secure.ngpvan.com/G7e9Ye2JXE…

Tomorrow is my favorite day of the year. It's New Years, which means new beginnings. It holds the most promise and the blank-est slate, so it's when I like to give appreciation for the things that matter most. So thank you all, for everything. Happy New Year. #CO03 #copolitics

We need a representative that cares about the district and the people in it, not just their own prestige. Join me: secure.actblue.com/donate/am…
Lauren Boebert’s decision to abandon her district shows she knows how vulnerable she is and that her constituents are tired of her failure to deliver real results. Her decision to switch to CO-04 proves she is in this for her own self-interest, not for her constituents. A third term would mean she cashes in on a lifetime pension, and she knows #CO03 was poised to deny her that. This news doesn't change the reality we are facing in western and southern Colorado, and our challenges don't go away with her. Voters in the 3rd Congressional District still care deeply about the same issues that we have cared about all along -- protecting our water and natural resources, creating an economy that works for everyone, solving our housing crisis, and fighting to protect rural and small-town Colorado. We need a voice that will advocate for our needs in Congress, not an attention-seeking politician who is only interested in climbing a political ladder. We are ready for a serious candidate who truly represents the district. #copolitics #womeninpolitics

Thank you so much to everyone that came out to Pueblo West last week! Everywhere I go, I'm reminded of how similar people across the district and across the country really are. We have more in common than we think💙 #CO03 #copolitics

To bar the former president from running without a guilty verdict first being handed down disenfranchises Trump supporters in Colorado and further feeds the dangerous stolen election narrative pushed by conspiracists, which undermines both our democracy and our legal system, bedrock institutions vital to a free and fair society. #copolitics #CO03
Having spent over a decade and a half as a Spanish legal interpreter working in courts throughout Colorado, I have a deep respect for legal procedure and the right to due process. If a guilty verdict is reached, then he should be barred from primaries in every state, but the case in question was not criminal in nature, which means that as of now, Trump has not been convicted of insurrection. #copolitics #CO03

While I believe it’s incontrovertible that the former president engaged in insurrection and should be barred from holding office per the 14th, the #CO Supreme Court’s decision Tuesday should depend on the verdict in March. The state court should only rule on eligibility for office in the event of a guilty verdict, not on apparent guilt itself. #copolitics #CO03

It's so rewarding to see the depth of the relationships that have come out of this sister-city program spanning many borders. I couldn't be prouder to have been part of creating something so meaningful to so many! gjsentinel.com/opinion/colum…
