There is a call nationwide: "October 17th is absolutely a “No Kings” day! The theme is “vote early” with a focus on voter registration and encouraging people to vote. Check the No Kings site for events near you or to host one."

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.

Washington kids deserve to grow up safe, supported, and free from discrimination. Period. That’s why more than 100 WA doctors and medical providers are opposing I-001 and I-638, warning they could undermine young adults' access to care, patient privacy, and trust between families and providers.

Washington voters! Mark your calendars. Ballots for November’s general elections will be mailed out in just a few weeks, and in the blink of an eye, election day will be here! Visit VoteWA.gov to register to vote or to update your voter information.

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.
