Jessica Killin Added to DCCC’s Coveted ‘Red to Blue’ Program

Killin will flip CO-05 blue and help take back the House majority

Today, the DCCC announced that Jessica Killin has been added to the committee’s highly competitive ‘Red to Blue’ program, signaling that the DCCC is invested in providing Killin, a top-tier candidate, with the support needed to continue building a winning campaign as she runs for Colorado’s Fifth Congressional District. 

“Jessica Killin is a dedicated public servant with a proven track record of delivering for families. While Jeff Crank caters to extremists, guts health care, and undermines our servicemembers and veterans, Killin is proving to Coloradans that she is the independent leader they deserve in Washington. Killin has never forgotten where she comes from, and she will win this seat,” said DCCC Chair Suzan DelBene.

Jessica Killin is a fourth-generation Coloradan, U.S. Army veteran, and devoted mom who has consistently proven her deep commitment to her state and country. The daughter of public school educators, Jessica was raised in Colorado Springs and grew up understanding the value of public service. After earning a ROTC scholarship, Jessica served as a Captain and paratrooper in the U.S. Army, leading soldiers overseas as a military police officer. Following her military service, Jessica spent more than a decade advocating for military families. Jessica knows exactly why Washington isn’t working for Southern Colorado, and she’s running for Congress to be an independent voice to lower costs for families, support our veterans, and restore fiscal responsibility. 

Jessica is the no-nonsense leader Coloradans deserve to flip CO-05 — the most Democratic-trending congressional district in the nation.

Red to Blue is a highly competitive and battle-tested DCCC program that arms top-tier candidates with organizational and fundraising support to help them continue building winning campaigns. Additionally, through Red to Blue the DCCC provides strategic guidance, staff resources, candidate trainings, fundraising support, and more.
