Exclusive Former federal prosecutor Hetal Doshi to run for Colorado AG

Hetal Doshi, a former top antitrust litigator at the U. S. Department of Justice, is entering the 2026 race for Colorado attorney general. She formally launches her campaign on Thursday, joining a crowded Democratic primary for the open seat left by AG Phil Weiser, who is running for governor. A first-generation Indian American, Doshi previously served as the assistant U.

S. attorney for Colorado and led landmark antitrust cases against major corporations like Google and Apple. Her campaign focuses on defending the rule of law against perceived attacks from President Trump and combating corporate power and political corruption. Doshi's platform also prioritizes civil liberties and environmental preservation. She has received endorsements from notable figures, including former House Speaker Terrance Carroll, who praised her commitment to working families.

Colorado's primary election for the attorney general seat is scheduled for June 2026. Doshi's candidacy adds to a competitive field that includes other prominent Democratic contenders.
