Progressives look to Colorado as next test of a rising movement
Almost immediately after scoring a series of upset victories in New York last week, members of the rising progressive movement started looking ahead to their next target: Coloradoâs 1st Congressional District.
Melat Kiros, a 29-year-old democratic socialist and lawyer, is challenging 15-term Rep. Diana DeGette for the solidly blue seat in Denver, where she and her allies hope voters are also ready for change.
âI think voters have realized that the party and leadership are failing to meet this moment in a meaningful way, and itâs time for leaders who are actually going to be fighting for the interests of working people,â Kiros told CNN.

Progressive leaders criticize Melat Kiros for declining to call deadly Boulder firebombing antisemitic
Three progressive leaders in Colorado are criticizing democratic socialist Melat Kiros, who is running to represent the 1st Congressional District in Denver, for refusing days before the primary election to call the deadly firebombing attack last year on a Jewish community rally in Boulder antisemitic.
One of the leaders is a state representative who has endorsed Kiros.
Kiros’ comments and the criticism come as the 29-year-old first-time political candidate appears to be on the cusp of unseating Democratic U.S. Rep. Diana DeGette amid a wave of discontent with Democratic incumbents.
“I don’t know what was in the heart of the perpetrator,” Kiros said in a recent interview with 9News. “All I know is that he went and attacked innocent people because of what they might have believed. I don’t even know what the people that were at that protest believed, too. In fact, most of them were just there to ask that the people who were kidnapped during Oct. 7 be returned home to their families.”
