Later that day, she addressed challenges faced by TDA Research: “TDA Research in Golden is developing everything from clean-energy tech to wildfire respirators. But Trump unlawfully withheld money already approved by Congress, putting their work and jobs at risk.
They don’t just support our clean-energy future — their work protects https://t.co/r8yF4gyGXs“.
On December 21, 2025, Pettersen commented on rising health care costs and community hospital closures: “Community hospitals are closing, and health care costs are skyrocketing because of the Republicans’ health care crisis. At Stride Community Health Center, I saw how local providers and our community are stepping up to fill gaps and provide care – but it shouldn’t have to be this https://t.co/ge3KTuI1j9”.
