6 million low-income households rely on the Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP) to keep their homes cool in the summer and warm in the winter. I joined 72 of my colleagues in signing a letter urging the rejection of Trump’s proposal to cut this critical energy assistance program.

President Trump is targeting civilian infrastructure in Iran, which not only is a war crime, but also undermines our credibility and leverage in the world.

"It is incredibly frustrating to listen to the news media ... actually believe what Donald Trump says. How many times does he have to tell outrageous lies before we finally realize he doesn't tell the truth?" - @democrats-armedservices.house.gov Ranking Member @adamsmith.house.gov

@adamsmith.house.gov: Trump’s ability to ‘BS the world’ on Iran is ‘otherworldly’ youtu.be/WGmuak74eAI?...

Rep. Adam Smith@adamsmith.house.govApr 17(source)

We have a president who doesn't even know what the truth is and is leading us into a devastating and costly war.

My thoughts and prayers are with his family and loved ones during this difficult time. I hope people across the Puget Sound region take a moment to reflect on and celebrate the lasting impact of his work on hard-hitting, inquisitive journalism. Rest easy, Joel.

I was proud to know him throughout his distinguished career covering state and local politics and helping make our community better for it.

I was deeply saddened to hear of the passing of longtime Seattle political columnist Joel Connelly. Joel dedicated more than five decades of his life to journalism as a quick-witted, insightful reporter in the Seattle area.

A lesson learned from Viktor Orban’s defeat in Hungary.

Thanks to Washington Department of Health Secretary Worsham for stopping by my District Office in Kent to discuss upcoming priorities and federal public health challenges. I look forward to working together to make Washington a safer place to live. Appreciate you meeting me.

We need to build more housing and take institutional investors out of the market to benefit single-family developments and a buyer-friendly market.

Rep. Adam Smith@adamsmith.house.govApr 16(source)

Buyers are entering the housing market later in life for one reason: the cost of housing is too expensive. The house my father bought in the 1970s for $15,000 would be over $1,000,000 now, which is unattainable and unaffordable for a middle-class family in Washington.

Buyers are entering housing market later in life

Affordability issues, supply crunch mean people are older when they purchase their first homes.

Rep. Adam Smith@adamsmith.house.govApr 15(source)

A step in the right direction. By investing in shelter units, we place more homeless individuals in a safe, protected environment. Adding housing availability will give Washingtonians more accessibility to resources and services to move their lives forward economically, socially, and physically.

President Trump is renegotiating a nuclear agreement that he initially tore up.

Let's not forget the impacts of this war with Iran.

Rep. Adam Smith@adamsmith.house.govApr 15(source)

I would be a much happier person if Donald Trump was not the president tomorrow, but we have to think strategically about stopping him.

Constant war empowers Hezbollah while Lebanese families pay the price. We need a path that reduces violence and ensures a secure future for the region.

Rep. Adam Smith@adamsmith.house.govApr 14(source)

I’ve heard from many constituents who are deeply concerned about the civilian casualties in Lebanon from Israel air strikes. The war in Lebanon must stop and Israel must work with the Lebanese government to strengthen institutions, support stability, and give people a real alternative to extremism.

Rep. Adam Smith@adamsmith.house.govApr 9(source)

The President's decision-making is unhinged, irrational, and proves that he is unfit for office.

Rep. Adam Smith@adamsmith.house.govApr 9(source)

I sat down with folks from local unions to hear about building trade and apprenticeship groups across our community. As the son of a unionized ramp serviceman at SeaTac Airport, I understand the importance of support from those in your field when pursuing a high-quality, high-paying job.
