U.S. and allied troops undertook the largest amphibious invasion in history 81 years ago today, bravely storming the beaches of Normandy to restore democracy to Europe. We owe our freedom to their sacrifices and those of their families.

For at least a half a century, the National Weather Service has provided forecasts for 24 hours a day, seven days a week -- until now. At least eight weather forecasting offices no longer have a meteorologist to cover overnight shifts.

Republican claims that cuts to Medicaid are about reducing fraud are flat out wrong and they know it. Protecting Medicaid isn’t a partisan issue. We’ve had letters from Republicans in the Washington state legislature saying don’t make these cuts.
By clawing back our federal investment in non-partisan public broadcasting, the Trump Administration and Republicans are not only undermining laws on the books, but also the irreplaceable role public broadcasting plays in our communities. (3/3)
As a result, millions of Americans—particularly in rural communities—will be cut off from local newsrooms, lifesaving emergency alerts, and programs they love. (2/3)
President Trump's rescission package is another attempt to defund more than 1,500 local broadcasting stations across the country, including 14 in the State of Washington. (1/3)

The U.S. Senate passed the #19thAmendment on this day 106 years ago. On this milestone day, we pause to recognize that our country is stronger and more successful with women included at every table, every board room, on every ballot, and in every discussion in our communities.
Canceling funding for the career and technical skills they provide to their students — some of whom are weeks away from graduation — will hurt the small and medium-sized businesses in Northwest Washington that utilize their workforce pipeline. (2/2)
For 60 years, Cascades Job Corps has played an essential role in the workforce of Skagit Valley. (1/2)

The administration should immediately end its hiring freeze for the National Weather Service, along with other critical safety roles throughout NOAA, including weather researchers and maritime professionals that weather forecasters and fisheries managers depend on. (2/2)
The Trump Administration is trying to put a flimsy band-aid over their massive cut to the National Weather Service. Hiring back less than a quarter of the people they fired isn't good enough with hurricane and wildfire seasons bearing down. (1/2)
SCOOP: The National Weather Service has secured permission to hire about 125 new meteorologists & other specialists as it faces acute staffing shortages in wake of Trump admin. cuts www.cnn.com/2025/06/02/w...
More than 126,000 Washingtonians are living with Alzheimer's disease. It’s important that we continue to fund research for new treatments and to work toward the end of this disease.
The remaining 10 percent global tariffs on Europe and 30 percent tariff on China should be lifted to lower prices for American families and to stabilize supply chains for US manufacturers. And Congress and the courts should take a close look at the other tariffs the president has planned. (2/2)
We cannot kick 270,000+ Washingtonians off of Medicaid and the Affordable Care Act. We have to fight back.
Today, we honor the men and women in uniform who made the ultimate sacrifice protecting our freedoms. We come together to honor them, to mourn them, and also to remember the family members, the friends, and the loved ones.
The European Union is a $19 trillion market with 448 million potential customers for U.S. exports. And it has been an important U.S. ally. Now the E.U. is getting ready for a new trade war when we should be focused on working together to confront Russia and other global challenges. (2/2)
Americans already face a summer of high prices. It is not the time to be threatening new tariffs that drive prices even higher. (1/2)

If you cut Medicaid, and you cut people off of Medicaid, they're not going to stop having health care needs. Medicaid provides critical financial support for the health care sector.

With the Trump Administration ignoring court orders, why would the House GOP attack the judiciary too? A provision buried in the bill would make it harder for federal judges to hold accountable government officials and others who violate court orders.
