COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. — U.S. Senator John Hickenlooper will be hosting a public town hall to hear from constituents in Colorado Springs on Thursday at 6:00 p.m.

The location will only be released to those who sign up for the event, according to Senator Hickenlooper's press team.

Senator Hickenlooper was in Grand Junction on Monday for a similar town hall, and he hosted a virtual statewide town hall meeting on March 12. His office said it organized these meetings as a forum to provide updates from Washington, D.C. and hear what are the top-of-mind issues for Coloradans.

Hickenlooper announced earlier this year that his 2026 reelection campaign will be his final Senate run.

Should Hickenlooper, 72, win a second term in 2026, he will be 80 when his seat will next be up in 2032. In response to a Post question last year about the age of key congressional leaders, Hickenlooper said he supported a two-term limit for U.S. senators (neither chamber of Congress has any such limit).

Before serving two terms as Colorado governor, Hickenlooper was the mayor of Denver. He comfortably unseated Republican U.S. Sen. Cory Gardner in 2020, two years after leaving the governor’s office. Before announcing his Senate run, he briefly campaigned for president in 2019
