Trump wants to raid an underfunded child care program with HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS of families already on waiting lists to give money EXCLUSIVELY to married parents. Sorry, did single parents stop paying taxes? It’s NOT 1950—I'll be fighting to stop this grift.

I was with folks on the Olympic Peninsula to talk about why we need to protect and preserve these wild and scenic rivers. I'll keep working to get my Wild Olympics bill across the finish line so these lands are here for generations to come.
Good news! The USPS whistleblower allegations are now officially in front of a federal judge. The groups challenging Trump’s mail-in voting executive order have submitted the whistleblower disclosure to the federal court in Massachusetts as part of their push for a preliminary injunction.
This is sick and twisted beyond measure. But America is a democracy, and we choose the direction of our country when we use our voice and our VOTES. Together, we can ALL fight to END Trump's inhumane mass deportation agenda.

My message to Trump: hands off our public lands. Without the Roadless Rule, 2 million acres of forest in WA state alone will be unprotected and up for grabs to Trump's highest bidder. This is outrageous, and I will do everything I can to fight back.
Trump Administration Moves to Allow Logging in Pristine National Forests
The move to repeal the ‘roadless rule’ would pave the way for road construction and logging in nearly 45 million acres of untouched back country.
