Our limited state and local law enforcement resources are needed to fight violent crime and fentanyl. Washington law prioritizes public safety and provides due process. (1/2)

I am proud that we have 44 companies across the state contributing directly to the upcoming Artemis II and Artemis III missions, thanks to the outstanding work of our state’s talented STEM professionals. (2/2)
The Washington state aerospace workforce is absolutely essential to our astronauts return to the Moon and to the future exploration of Mars and beyond. (1/2)

Happy 90th birthday to Social Security! Without this program, nearly 300,000 Washingtonians would fall under the poverty line. That is why I take offense when the Treasury Secretary says the Trump Accounts might be a back door way to privatize Social Security. Not on my watch!
Dana Christiansen, owner of a child care center in Camas, says rising health insurance costs create tough choices for her business: “How much do I take on and absorb? How much do I pass on to the employee? How much do I pass on to the families in the form of tuition increases?”
It may take a while for the courts to act on this overreach by President Trump who is simply trying to project power. But the American people know there are better ways to solve their problems than this authoritarian move. (6/6)
This approach is showing great success on one of our worse crime problems--Fentanyl. (5/6)
If the President really wanted to fight crime in our cities, he would create a Fentanyl Task Force with the Department of Homeland Security, Department of Justice and local law enforcement sharing resources and working collaboratively to tackle this scourge. (4/6)
The U.S. Attorney General should let DC mayor Muriel Bowser do her job and the FBI should do theirs. Which means the FBI fighting money laundering, sex trafficking and combatting drug trafficking. (3/6)
One of best ways to help cities fight crime is funding community policing programs that have reduced violent crime rates in some cities by as much as 50%.
But the President has cut these community programs, Byrne JAG, and other grants by $500 million. (2/6)
Today is another absurd attempt by the President to use emergency powers where they don’t apply.
DC’s violent crime rate has been going down for the last decade. (1/6)
We've seen a series of policies recently that will make health insurance coverage harder for many Washingtonians. The cost of insurance is definitely going to go up, and we need to fight back.

Lifting the hiring freeze for critical National Weather Service forecasting and warning positions is the right move for public safety--and long overdue. Today’s action is a welcome step toward restoring the essential workforce we need to keep Americans safe in the face of escalating extreme weather.
The law is clear that these funds can only be used for continuing to protect, expand, and maintain America’s beloved public lands and natural heritage for the enjoyment of Americans today and for generations to come. (4/4)
Here in Washington, the law has helped us preserve and expand outdoor recreation opportunities and wildlife habitat in the Central Cascades Forest, Mount St. Helens Forest, and the Yakima Basin watershed. (3/4)
I led the fight with others to write and pass this law, which permanently and fully funded the Land and Water Conservation Fund and invested billions to address long overdue public land maintenance backlogs throughout the State of Washington and around the country. (2/4)
Five years ago, Congress overwhelmingly passed, and President Trump signed into law, the Great American Outdoors Act which was the most significant land conservation and outdoor recreation bill in half a century. (1/4)
I led the fight with others to write and pass this law, which permanently and fully funded the Land and Water Conservation Fund and invested billions to address long overdue public land maintenance backlogs throughout the State of Washington and around the country. (2/4)
And Congress should enforce rules-based trade that opens up export markets for American goods. (3/3)
