Welcome
It is my pleasure to welcome you to my online office. This site is designed to offer residents of Colorado's First Congressional District a variety of resources. There are a number of constituent services that my office can provide, and you can learn about them here. You can also use this site to learn about my activities in Congress and my positions on important national issues.
Communicating with my constituents is very important to me. Please feel free to contact me with any concerns or questions you may have. In addition, I encourage you to sign up for my e-newsletter. If you do, I’ll write you regularly when the U.S. House of Representatives is in session and provide you the inside scoop on current events in Congress. I look forward to our continued communication.
Again, thank you for visiting.
Diana DeGette
Member of Congress
