VOTE RECOMMENDED
Melat Kiros
Medicare for All: central to her platform, along with canceling medical debt.
Corporate PACs: refuses all corporate PAC money, including AIPAC; says she won't back House leaders who take it.
Genocide: has publicly called Gaza a genocide.
Israel aid: calls for a full arms embargo, including defensive systems.
Iran war: campaign platform is “End All Wars.”
Reason for CMV Position: This is a full endorsement. Melat Kiros is the only congressional candidate in Colorado who meets every one of CMV’s criteria. She supports Medicare for All, refuses corporate PAC money, recognizes the genocide in Gaza, supports ending military aid to Israel, and opposes the war on Iran.
U.S. House District 2 (Boulder, Fort Collins)
Joe Neguse (Incumbent)
NO VOTE ON JOE NEGUSE
Medicare for All: Yes. Cosponsor of H.R. 3069.
Corporate PACs: Took $182,000 from PACs in Q2 2025. Has previously accepted AIPAC funds.
Genocide: Has not gone on record to call it a genocide.
Israel aid: Voted for the $26 billion Israel aid package in April 2024 and backed Israel’s defense through 2024. Has not signed on to any bill that restricts weapons transfers to Israel.
Iran war: Called the strikes unconstitutional and backed war powers votes.
Reason for CMV Position: This is a Protest vote. This is a safe Democratic seat, so a protest vote here sends a message without risking a Republican win or control of the House.
U.S. House District 3 (Montrose, Pueblo, Grand Junction)
VOTE RECOMMENDED
Dwayne Romero
Medicare for All: Wants preventive and basic care for all, but has not endorsed Medicare for All.
Israel aid: Supports aid limited to a defensive posture, including defensive weapons.
Iran war: As a Gulf War veteran, opposes the war.
Corporate PACs and genocide: no public record found.
Reason for CMV position: This is a strategic vote, not an endorsement. Dwayne Romero does not meet all of CMV’s criteria. We recommend voting for him because the incumbent, Jeff Hurd, supports the war on Iran and opposes limits on military aid to Israel, and because defeating Hurd helps Democrats win control of the U.S. House.
U.S. House District 4 (Eastern Plains/Castle Rock, Parker)
VOTE RECOMMENDED
Eileen Laubacher
Medicare for All: Opposes it, citing rural hospitals; wants ACA subsidies restored.
Israel aid: Says taxpayer-funded aid should end; weapons could still be sold case by case.
Iran war: Says the war should never have started while talks were possible.
Corporate PACs and genocide: no public record found.
Reason for CMV Position: This is a strategic vote, not an endorsement. Eileen Laubacher does not meet all of CMV’s criteria. We recommend voting for her because the incumbent, Lauren Boebert, fails every one of CMV’s criteria, and because defeating Boebert helps Democrats win control of the U.S. House.
U.S. House District 5 (El Paso County/ Colorado Springs)
VOTE RECOMMENDED
Jessica Killin
Medicare for All: Calls for a "full overhaul" of health insurance without naming Medicare for All .
Israel aid: Says Israel should not get a blank check.
Iran war: Says Trump went to war at Netanyahu's request and Congress must reclaim war powers .
Corporate PACs and genocide: no public record found.
Reason for CMV Vote: This is a strategic vote, not an endorsement. Jessica Killin does not meet all of CMV’s criteria. We recommend voting for her because the incumbent, Jeff Crank, supports the war on Iran and opposes limits on military aid to Israel, and because defeating Crank helps Democrats win control of the U.S. House.
U.S. House District 6 (Aurora, Centennial, Littleton)
Jason Crow (Incumbent)
NO VOTE ON JASON CROW

Israel aid: Voted for the $26 billion Israel aid package in April 2024 and backed Israel’s defense through 2024. Has not signed on to any bill that restricts weapons transfers to Israel.
Iran war: Pushed the September war powers resolution and has forced repeated votes.
Reason for CMV Position: This is a protest vote. Rep. Crow is expected to win reelection, so withholding our vote won’t change the outcome, but it does send a message. Rep. Crow has also refused to engage with the Muslim community despite repeated requests made to him directly.

Corporate PACs: Tech- and crypto-funded super PACs spent $5.5M backing him in the primary.
Genocide: Has not gone on record to call it a genocide.

This is one of the closest races in the country, and flipping this seat is critical to Democrats winning control of the U.S. House.
