“It’s unconscionable that the Trump Admin keeps attacking thousands of qualified and capable individuals who are willing to serve in our armed forces.

Today kicks off Teacher Appreciation Week. I thank the educators who devote themselves to make sure every child has the chance to succeed. We need to invest in the Department of Education, not take funds away, to support these teachers and their students.
On National Nurses Day, I wanted to thank all the selfless nurses who treat members of the Ninth District every day. Your care, hard work, and knowledge are the backbone of our health care industry.
More than one in five adults have a mental health condition, yet care remains unaffordable and inaccessible. We need more pathways to treatment and support year-round. Recovery is possible and our nation needs to help out all that are fighting.
Having publicly spoken about my anxiety, I can personally attest that exploring treatment options helped me find strategies to manage my mental health.
In May, we recognize Mental Health Awareness Month, a time for us to have real conversations about our mental health to reduce the stigma around these diagnoses.
This autocratic presidency is picking up students with no warning, holding them in detention centers, and deporting them with little to no information as to why they are being forced to leave.
I joined 142 of my Democratic colleagues urging the Trump administration to deliver answers about student visa cancellations.

Starting tomorrow, May 7, you must be REAL ID compliant. Anyone who is a U.S. citizen with a Social Security number, has proof of citizenship, proof of identity, and proof of Washington State residency may apply. This document will have a U.S. flag marking next to the photo.
President Trump's budget would cut 43% of rent assistance for people living on low incomes. The President needs to do better for working Americans, and I greatly urge him to support the people of Seattle, rather than gutting essential need programs in exchange for a tax cut for billionaires.
The Gee How Oak Tin Family Association, who has been welcoming those from Seattle to Seattle for 125 years, welcomed me to their anniversary celebration. Thanks for all you’ve done for our city over the past century and I look forward to working with you for years to come.
I joined members of the Rwandan community for their annual Kwibuka, commemorating the 31st anniversary of the Rwandan Genocide. This was a powerful ceremony and reminder of the lives lost in this tragedy, and I thank you for having me.
Join me on Wednesday, May 7 at 6:00 p.m. for a Virtual Town Hall. Tune in via livestream on Instagram, X, Facebook, YouTube, or by visiting adamsmith.house.gov/live. Hope to see you then.
Thanks to the folks who came to the Ventures Roundtable. I remain committed to supporting small businesses and supporting your work in King County.
President Trump's shakedown of law firms is the action of an authoritarian dictator and I applaud the law firms that have stood up to him. As a former prosecutor, I joined Erin Burnett OutFront to discuss Trump's attempts to put pressure on law firms. youtube.com/shorts/zVCC1...
REMINDER: My office is hosting a Protecting Yourself from Scams and Fraud Event on Tuesday, May 6 at 1:30 p.m. We will hear from guests from the Federal Trade Commission, Kent Police Department, and Kent Councilmember Boyd. I hope you can join us at the Kent Senior Activity Center.
As the President continues to violate the rule of law and Constitution, lawsuits from state attorney generals like @atg.wa.gov remain incredibly important.

In February, I introduced the Humans Over Private Equity (HOPE) for Homeownership Act. This legislation would put an end to hedge funds buying up single-family homes and would
make housing more affordable in our country. We need more housing at a fair cost, and this bill will do just that.
I spoke at Hoa Mai Park in Seattle to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the end of
the Vietnam War. Now, more than ever, we need to recognize the importance of supporting
the immigrant and refugee community that makes our city what it is. Thanks for having me.
