Jeff Bridges
Senate District 26
Senator Jeff Bridges represents South Metro Denver, the community where he and his brilliant wife AnnMarie grew up and where they live with their floppy dog Walt.
Working across the aisle, Bridges sponsored and passed bipartisan legislation to provide full day Kindergarten to every Colorado kid, guarantee paid sick leave for every working Coloradan, and establish the Middle Income Housing Authority to keep Colorado affordable for folks like nurses, teachers, and firefighters.
Before his election to the legislature, Bridges handled military and small business policy as a Legislative Assistant for US Senator Ken Salazar, ran public affairs for Union Theological Seminary, and worked on campaigns across Colorado and the country. He earned a bachelor's degree from Kenyon College and a Master of Divinity from Harvard.
Bridges currently serves as a member of the Joint Budget Committee and as Chair of the Senate Appropriations Committee.
