Congressman Jeff Hurd

A Record of

Deceit / Betrayal / Petty Politics / Phony Conservative

The Congressman’s record includes:

1. Refusing to return MULTIPLE phone calls by the Montrose County Party Chairman.  This is petty, non-professional, and essentially giving the County Chairman the middle finger.  Hurd has been invited multiple times to attend at least one of the County Party’s monthly meetings, so he can share his record in Congress.  Neither he or his staff could be courteous and professional by returning the Party leader’s many phone calls.

2. Hurd does not feel obligated to be accessible to his constituents.  After all, he won the election without ever participating in any debate during the campaign.  Why explain your platform if you can rely on a postcard campaign promoting your phony conservative values.  He felt entitled and was anointed, so god forbid he should ever have to face his constituents now regarding his record (except those who blindly follow him) let alone a County Party Chairman and the County’s Central Committee members.

3. Hurd had a photo-op near one of the many fire zones in his District.  Nothing wrong with this except for the fact he invited only one of Montrose County Commissioners - an independent* rather than invite the other Commissioners who are Republicans - to his photo-op.  It was so deceitful how this photo-op took place.   The so-called independent commissioner excused herself from a public Commissioners meeting without notifying her colleagues she was running out to join Hurd’s photo-op.

4. The non-Republican Commissioner solely invited by Hurd is aligned with Colorado’s far left U.S. Senators John Hickenlooper and Michael Bennett in their latest land grab attempt.  So, why would Hurd invite only the non-Republican commissioner rather than the two conservative Montrose County Republican Commissioners?  Answer:  Hurd is not a real Republican or a true conservative, but a real RINO!

5. Hurd has not been clear if he supports Open Borders or the President’s Border Control policy, because he has been on both sides of the fence.  This is another example of him playing politician.  Why commit when you can get away with it.  After all, during the Primary and General Election he never fully committed to being a Trump supporter, yet did not mind of course of riding on Trump’s coat tails to assure his election last November.  CD-3 needs a real leader, not another typical politician.

6. Last week, Hope Scheppelman, who is Hurd’s only 2026 Primary opponent at this time, came out swinging against the Congressman.  Our DOGE Report issue headlined “Predator in Our Backyard: Silence from Congressman Jeff Hurd”.  Some may have viewed it as overdramatic by an opponent seeking his office, so was it appropriate for DOGE Report to report or repeat Scheppelman’s press release?  Well, we viewed it and still do as a disturbing pattern by Congressman Hurd when it comes to ignoring or condoning abominable treatment of children.

7. Last year during the early stages of the CD-3 Primary, Hurd received the endorsement of a former State Senator with a despicable record of sponsoring radical Democrat legislation that resulted in SEXUAL EXPLOITATION of CHILDREN especially under the age of 11.

Hurd had plenty of respectable endorsements, so why would he so willing to accept this former Senator’s endorsement who betrayed

Children, Parents, Conservatives, GOP, and Law Enforcement?

Hurd was asked to reject the endorsement, but he refused even after he was provided details of the said Senator’s disgraceful record that included:

● HB 19-1032 - so-called sex education bill that resulted in the infamous Sex survey presented to school children as young as TEN (10) years of age. 
The survey asked students, for example, if they had "anal sex".

● SB 21-067 - so-called Civics Education bill that mandates teaching young children diverse sexual lifestyles.

● SB 20-217 so-called Enhanced Law Enforcement Integrity bill that threw law enforcement under the bus by removing "qualified immunity". 
Part of the DEFUND the police agenda by radical Democrats.

● Former State Senator did not sponsor, but did vote with the Democrats HB 19-1263 to “decriminalize” DRUG DEALERS and "FENTANYL".

8. Jeff Hurd has willfully demonstrated he does not deserve to be re-elected in 2026.  He has betrayed and deceived Republican voters just as his friend/endorser the former disgraced State Senator betrayed and deceived Republican voters.  Hurd is just another typical politician who embraces petty politics, and he is a phony conservative - a true RINO!!!  We need true and honest leaders to represent us, and promote and defend our great Constitutional Republic!!!!

*  An independent who also betrayed the Republican Party.  She resigned from the Party without giving notice to the County Chair even though she was supported by the Party.
