50% of Americans can’t afford health care, and millions more have medical debt.
It’s time for universal health care — no one should go broke because they get sick.

Everyday Americans have been forced to pay for daily expenses with credit cards — owing a collective $1.23 trillion in credit card debt.
As Trump slashes funding for health care and food assistance, he’s giving himself and his billionaire buddies massive tax breaks.
In the richest country in the world, no one should have to worry about how they’ll be able to afford a trip to the doctor.
It’s time for a health care system without copays, private insurance premiums, sky-high deductibles, or surprise fees. It’s time for Medicare for All.

Last night, I hosted my 129th town hall since coming to Congress.
Hundreds of people came out to ask thoughtful questions on everything from Trump’s illegal war in Iran to protecting our planet from climate change. If you weren’t able to make it, I hope to see you next time!
“I feel frozen, scared, and angry.”
Wesley Powers, a U.S. Navy veteran, was attacked with a chemical agent and detained by ICE. Listen to his story.
Thanks to Trump’s illegal war in Iran, our costs are going up. In King County, residents are now paying a whopping $4.87 a gallon for gas.
We need to put an end to this now.

TONIGHT: I’m hosting my 129th town hall in Seattle.

Disgusting is not a strong enough word to describe how absolutely vile this is.
This rhetoric is un-American and has no place in this country.
This fight is about justice -– we’re not giving up.
“What happened to me was a flagrant violation of my Constitutional rights.”
Patty O’Keefe was violently detained for legally observing ICE activity in her neighborhood. She deserves accountability from the DHS.
The day before Kristi Noem was fired, I confronted her about DHS wrongfully detaining American citizens, some of whom were sitting right behind her.
I’m grateful for their voices and the continued work of UnidosMN. This fight is far from over — I’m not stopping.
These are letters and drawings from children at the Dilley Detention Center in Texas.
Trump isn’t going after the “worst of the worst.” He’s going after kids — who should be home, in school, and playing with their friends.
This is absolutely heartbreaking — and it must end.
Congratulations to Brandi Carlile for being named one of Time magazine’s 2026 Women of the Year!
Thank you for always using your voice to fight for justice — for women, for immigrants, and for everyone in this country.
DHS is using violent and unnecessary force against people across this country who are exercising their First Amendment rights.
Trump said he would be going after the “worst of the worst” in immigration enforcement. We know that is not true.
All of this as they continue their Epstein cover-up, protecting predators.
WOW. The money we’re spending for war with Iran could help every family who needs health care and food assistance.
While working people suffer, we’re spending BILLIONS on another forever war.
March is Women’s History Month — a time to honor and celebrate the contributions of women in our communities and across the globe.
At a moment Trump and his DOJ is silencing survivors and attempting to strip women of their rights, we must continue our fight for justice.
FACTS:
92,000 jobs LOST last month.
Unemployment INCREASED to 4.4%.
27 cent SPIKE in gas prices.
Trump is ignoring the needs of people here at home, meanwhile he’s undertaking illegal wars in Iran and around the world that cost billions of taxpayer dollars.
The Trump administration gave $1.2 billion to a company with ZERO experience in detention management, and it unsurprisingly had a disastrous result.
This facility, as well as every private, for-profit detention facility, needs to be closed.
Prosecutors are losing key witnesses in criminal cases because they are getting deported by this administration.
The lawlessness of ICE and CBP makes us all less safe.
