U.S Representative Ken Buck announced that he will not run again for Congress stating that the Republican party has “lost its way.” Buck went on to say, in reference to election denials, "Our nation is on a collision course with reality and a steadfast commitment to truth, even uncomfortable truths, is the only way forward."

Buck, a Republican from Windsor, represents Colorado's 4th Congressional District which includes portions of Northern and Eastern Colorado. The staunch conservative was first elected to Congress in 2014. Buck serves on the House Judiciary Committee and the House Foreign Affairs Committee. He is currently serving his fifth term in the United States House of Representatives.
