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.

But the Trump Administration decided politics is more important than investing in America's competitiveness. The new Army Corps work plan does not include a fair share of funding for our strategically vital ports, including the Ports of Seattle and Tacoma. (2/2)
Today on National Maritime Day, we recognize the vital importance of the U.S. maritime transportation system, shipyards, fisheries, and the hard-working people at our ports and at sea contributing to its success. To remain in the game, we must invest in our port infrastructure. (1/2)
I am saddened by the tragic shooting of a young couple in Washington, D.C., simply because they were attending a Jewish event.
This deserves a response by all of us to make sure we live in a society where these kinds of hate crimes don't exist.
This devastating bill will add trillions to the federal debt just to give a giant tax break to corporations and the ultra-rich. I will fight these misaligned priorities as this bill comes through the Senate. (3/3)
It will take away health coverage from millions of American families, halt investments in job-creating energy projects, and saddle taxpayers in every state with higher costs and more financial strain. (2/3)
House Republicans just voted on a bill that does nothing to lower costs on working families who need the most help in reducing costs. This is Robin Hood in reverse: Robbing from the poor to give to the rich. (1/3)

Here’s what @cantwell.senate.gov had to say about Trump’s pick to be the next Commandant of the U.S. Coast Guard:
As passenger traffic continues to break records, this investment ensures the airport can meet future demand while supporting local jobs and economic development that benefit the region. (2/2)
Tri-Cities Airport is in the midst of a decade-long terminal redevelopment plan, and this funding adds to previous federal investments to speed up expansion of its outdated terminal and baggage handling infrastructure. (1/2)
