October 21, 2025: Pettersen on federal cuts to mental, behavior health care; Honoring Demaryius Thomas
U.S. Rep. Brittany Pettersen, a Democrat who represents the state's 7th Congressional District, is concerned that federal layoffs, furloughs, and funding cuts to grants, will have a devastating effect on mental and behavioral health services, including helping people trying to break addiction. Then, for Breast Cancer Awareness Month, we re-share a discussion about the importance of knowing breast density. Plus, the "Wired, Wired West" explores the impact of A.I. on water. And the late Demaryius Thomas is inducted into the Denver Broncos' Ring of Fame.
