Colorado's junior senator, a Democrat, answered questions on everything from what he's doing to protect our public lands to helping rural veterans. Included among the subjects he discussed where what he's doing to protect Social Security, IRAs and government-funded science.

"This is the toughest town hall I've ever done," Hickenlooper said. "Every question makes my stomach churn. These are cuts that aren't just foolish and irresponsible. They're really painful to know what's going on."
