Food Freedom! Today I was proud to sign HB26-1033 - Expanding the Colorado Cottage Foods Act, which supports home chefs across Colorado and helps bring them out of the shadows so they can feed more Coloradans their delicious foods! This signing is truly a celebration of Colorado cuisine, our strong community connections, and the commitment of these business owners. Thank you to the amazing chefs who joined us today, as well as Mariachi Internacional for the incredible performance.

I’ve never signed a bill at a Pilates studio before! This week I signed a bipartisan bill to cut unnecessary red tape by exempting Pilates and Barre instruction schools from state oversight, aligning them with yoga schools. Colorado is committed to effective, efficient government that protects consumers while making it easier for people and small businesses to pursue their passions.

Great to be in Colorado Springs to celebrate exciting progress for conservation and our fun, adventure-filled great outdoors in the iconic Pikes Peak Region. From the expansion of Cheyenne Mountain State Park to the new lease at the Rosemont Reservoir to expand recreation, we are elevating both the care and enjoyment of our incredible open spaces. What better way to honor Colorado's 150th, and America's 250th, anniversaries, than with these amazing opportunities at and around America's Mountain!

This could be the most substantial workforce-development bill of @GovofCO's tenure for employers. But as he told sponsor @McCluskieforCO and other supporters after signing it Thursday, "The work is just beginning": tsscolorado.com/task-of-mesh…

Colorado elected officials and candidates, please provide your kill count. Don't make me chase you all down. That would take forever.
I have killed zero people, and you can take that to the bank.

Replying to @KyleClark
Victor Marx claims to have been forced to kill a man at age 7. And he talks about the necessity of killing people in the course of his "high-risk missionary" work. So I asked him how many people he's killed on his missions. "Does it matter?" Marx said.

We ought ‘ter celebrate World Otter Day!
Happy World Otter Day, Colorado! This year, as we celebrate America 250 and Colorado 150, we’re also recognizing 50 years since river otters were successfully reintroduced to our state, a great Colorado conservation success story. Thanks to Colorado Parks and Wildlife’s work, these playful and important animals are back in our rivers, helping keep our ecosystems healthy for future generations.

Spring is a special time in Colorado, with young wildlife growing, nesting, and exploring across our trails, open spaces, and backyards. The best way we can help is simple: give wildlife space, keep dogs leashed, never feed or handle wild animals, and call Colorado Parks and Wildlife if an animal appears sick or injured. By respecting wildlife from a safe distance, we can help protect Colorado’s incredible animals and keep our outdoors safe for everyone. If you see a young animal that appears to be orphaned, do not approach it as it’s often hidden while the mother finds food. And a mother protecting her baby is one of the most deadly weapons in the world. Read more from CPW: cpw.state.co.us/news/0508202…

I was proud to sign this bill today in Fort Collins, which clears the way for the next phase of Front Range Passenger Rail! The train, called the Colorado Connector (CoCo), will make it easier and more affordable for Coloradans to get around by 2029, with less traffic, less pollution, and more time and money saved.

Coloradans and visitors alike rely on and deserve affordable, reliable, convenient transportation to get where we want to go, and that starts with more accountability and transparency, especially in our largest metro area. That’s why today I signed SB26-150, which takes needed action to modernize RTD and make it better, to deliver stronger transportation options that save people money and get Coloradans where we are going.

The Sundance Film Festival is bringing independent film, music, poetry, and storytelling to communities from Denver to Morrison with a full calendar of summer events as we get ready to welcome the Sundance Film Festival to Boulder in 2027. This is an exciting opportunity to show Colorado’s creative spirit, support local businesses, and bring artists, visitors, and film lovers from around the world to our great state. We look forward to rolling out the red carpet for the Sundance Film Festival in Colorado!

I was thrilled to meet with local elected officials from across the country participating in the Abundance Fellowship to share Colorado’s leadership to expand access to more housing, affordable, reliable transportation, and low-cost clean energy. By working together and sharing innovative ideas and best practices, we can learn from one another and tackle the shared challenges we face. Colorado keeps pushing forward to make life more affordable, break down barriers that slow or delay progress, and welcome opportunities for Coloradans. I look forward to seeing the exciting work of this group and how they can help move communities forward.

Leading by example and eating healthy carrots! 🥕
Governor Polis' first press conference since he granted clemency to Tina Peters focused on healthy foods. POLIS: "While I chew on the carrot, any questions?" (reporters asked about Peters/clemency) POLIS: "I'm going to finish chewing my carrot."

Today is National Rescue Dog Day, and I’m especially grateful for my beloved Gia. Adopted from the humane society in Englewood in 2009 at just 2 pounds, Gia is a beloved part of our family. Rescue pets bring so much love, joy, and companionship into our lives — and today is a great reminder to celebrate rescue pets .
