About

Elected: 2009 (3rd full term)

  • Background: Former Denver Public Schools superintendent
  • Committees: Intelligence, Finance, Agriculture
  • State: Visible Ukrainian American community around Denver and Boulder with tech and defense-industry ties

Bio Michael Bennet is a senior Democrat with a rare combination of seats on both the Intelligence and Finance Committees. This lets him touch both Russia oversight and trade-based sanctions.

Ukraine Record

  • Voted YES on every Ukraine aid package
  • Signed onto earlier Russia sanctions bills
  • Has not yet signed onto S. 1241 or S. 2918

Advocacy Insight

  • Ask them to: Push the Decreasing Russian Oil Profits Act (S. 3513) through the Finance Committee, and sign onto the REPO Act (S. 2918), which uses frozen Russian assets to rebuild Ukraine.
  • Why it works with them: As a senior Democrat with a finance background, he responds to the REPO Act as a practical, legally sound way to fund Ukraine without asking U.S. taxpayers for more money.
  • Your connection: Mention Colorado's aerospace and defense sector (Lockheed Martin, Raytheon) and the Ukrainian American community in Denver and Boulder. Framing Ukraine support as Colorado jobs works well.
  • Avoid: Vague "help Ukraine" asks. Be specific about which bill and which committee.

Without this bill, hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians who fled the war and built lives in the U.S. face deportation back to an active war zone. This is the single most urgent protection for Ukrainians in America.

Hi, my name is [YOUR NAME], a constituent from [YOUR CITY/ZIP].

I'm calling to urge Representative [REPRESENTATIVE'S NAME] to cosponsor H.R. 3104, the Ukrainian Adjustment Act of 2025.

Hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians fled Russia's invasion and are now living in the U.S. on temporary status. They cannot safely return to an active war zone. H.R. 3104 gives them a path to permanent residency. It's bipartisan, it's targeted, and it's the right thing to do.

Will Representative [REPRESENTATIVE'S NAME] cosponsor H.R. 3104?

Thank you.
