For months, Homeland Security Sec. Kristi Noem blocked lifesaving flood prevention funding for Snohomish County, even though it was already approved. After I pushed DHS to release these funds, I’m glad to announce that the county is receiving $300,000 for flood prevention.

Trump’s policies are forcing you to pay an extra $5,000 this year. From tariffs, health care cuts, & the reckless war in Iran, the price of gas, groceries, & insurance premiums have all gone up.

The American people have been clear – they want a Congress that works to lower costs & keeps our communities safe. The Republican budget is completely out of touch.

Congresswoman Suzan DelBene@repdelbene.bsky.socialApr 23(source)

Senate Republicans voted for a budget that does absolutely nothing to lower costs. Instead of addressing the issues that actually matter to families, this bill includes another blank check to ICE.

But the Trump administration cut $500 million in mRNA research last year & wants additional cuts. I will continue to support mRNA research because it has saved millions of lives. Fighting cancer shouldn’t be partisan.

Pancreatic cancer is one of the deadliest cancers. I started my career in medical research, & I know mRNA breakthroughs are showing incredible promise in treating & preventing diseases. www.independent.co.uk/news/health/...

mRNA vaccines could be critical to fight cancer. Their future is up in the air

More than 626,000 Americans are expected to die from cancer this year

Trump’s tariffs are raising costs for families across the country. Washington’s economy depends on trade. That means our communities are feeling the pain more than most. I pressed Trade Ambassador Greer on these harmful policies.

Deeply saddened to hear of the passing of my colleague Rep. David Scott. When I started on the House Agriculture Committee, he helped me learn the ropes & served as an incredible resource. My thoughts & prayers are with his family.

Washington is one of the most beautiful places on the planet! This Earth Day, let’s renew our commitment to fighting for a cleaner, healthier planet for future generations.

The American people deserve a Congress that works for them.

Congresswoman Suzan DelBene@repdelbene.bsky.socialApr 22(source)

Trump’s war with Iran continues to send gas prices soaring across the country. Instead of focusing on providing families relief, Republicans are spending this week on legislation that weakens the Clean Air Act & worsens air quality in our communities.

Congresswoman Suzan DelBene@repdelbene.bsky.socialApr 21(source)

The attacks on Rep. Ansari, her family, & her staff are vile. No public servant should face these kinds of threats & harassment. Trump’s war in Iran has created chaos & suffering that Congress must address. We need leaders like Rep. Ansari in Congress, & I’m proud to serve with her.

American workers deserve a Labor Department focused on fighting for them, not one consumed by scandal.

Congresswoman Suzan DelBene@repdelbene.bsky.socialApr 21(source)

Labor Sec. Lori Chavez-DeRemer failed to protect workers across the country & in her own department. She rolled back worker protections, undermined labor unions, & created a hostile work environment.

Congresswoman Suzan DelBene@repdelbene.bsky.socialApr 20(source)

Trump’s war in Iran means that Washingtonians are being forced to pay $1 more per gallon of gas. The president’s own Energy Secretary said it may take a year for gas prices to go back to pre-war levels.

I hear from many constituents who are worried about how these issues in Washington, DC are impacting their lives and communities — and I want to hear from you.

This process doesn’t allow customers who ultimately paid the price for the tariffs to apply for a refund, only the importing business. Here is the link to apply for a tariff refund: www.cbp.gov/document/gui...

Today, the government is starting to allow businesses to apply for refunds for Trump’s illegal tariffs that the Supreme Court struck down. I will be closely monitoring to ensure that businesses of all sizes can access these funds, not just the largest corporations.

Met with the Pacific Coast Shellfish Growers to talk about protecting the environment & federal investments in research to support a vital WA industry.

Congresswoman Suzan DelBene@repdelbene.bsky.socialApr 19(source)

Deeply saddened by the horrific shooting in Louisiana. As we wait to learn more from local officials, my thoughts are with the victims, their families, & the entire community of Shreveport during this heartbreaking time.
