Sen. Michael Bennet and U.S. Rep. Brittany Pettersen of Lakewood , Colorado , answer questions about Democratic leadership in Congress .

Police escorted out just under 10 people throughout the night after Bennet ’s staff tried to talk them down.

Bennet said he would still encourage his Republican colleagues to hold town halls and hear from constituents.

Jake Kotula from Denver said Republican actions are “a huge departure from the norm” and he hasn’t seen any different behavior from Democrats to react to the new political landscape.

Ron Meehan from Lakewood said many people have “deeply rooted and valid concerns” about protecting federal assistance programs, democracy and climate.
