Even before being elected to the State House, Phyllis' mark was being felt across Central Washington as she worked to bring childcare and educational services to migrant children. (2/4)

Phyllis Gutiérrez Kenney was a dear friend and mentor to generations of legislators and Latino leaders who would come after her. We lost a true leader. (1/4)

It's also good to see U.S. manufacturers winning in the lucrative widebody airplane market. It’s also a reminder why it’s time to sell to meet big demand instead of pursuing trade disruptions. (2/2)
It's a big win for Boeing’s energy-efficient 787 and 777 planes and a big win for Puget Sound and U.S. supply chain jobs. (1/2)

Medicaid pays for essential long-term care for over 100,000 seniors and people with disabilities in the State of Washington. Cuts to Medicaid could force nursing homes to consider closing.
I joined my colleagues in urging Attorney General Pam Bondi and Deputy Assistant Attorney General Maureen Henneberg to reverse the abrupt cancellation of hundreds of public safety grants that serve crime victims and improve public safety in communities across the country.
As I’ve heard around the state, these shortsighted Medicaid cuts would be devastating, and will only hurt vulnerable patients, force hospitals to slash services or close altogether, and cost taxpayers more in the long run. (3/3)
Patients who are recovering from illness, a complicated birth, or opioid addiction should not also have to submit complex paperwork or cover excessive co-pays. (2/3)
The House Republicans’ Medicaid proposals could cause over 780,000 Washingtonians to lose affordable health coverage – all to give the very richest Americans a massive tax cut. (1/3)

Proud to join former Redmond Mayor John Marchione, current Redmond Mayor Angela Birney, Sound Transit CEO Dow Constantine, U.S. Rep. Susan DelBene, and King County Councilmember Claudia Balducci at yesterday’s opening of the Downtown Redmond Link Extension!
Today we celebrate the moms who raise and inspire us. I’ll continue to work to support the success of mothers and their families. Happy Mother’s Day to moms everywhere!
Today I helped cut the ribbon for the new Downtown Redmond Link Extension. Redmond Station becomes the tech terminus of our light rail system, connecting people where they live, work, and play so Puget Sound can continue to be a world-class innovation center.
Congressional Republicans are trying to cut funding for safety net programs like Meals on Wheels, Head Start, and others to fund tax cuts for billionaires. I joined my Democratic Senate colleagues in sending this warning letter to the American people.
During #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth, we recognize the importance of mental health care. Over half of the counties in WA don’t have enough mental health providers. We must keep working to expand access to mental health services.
I join the millions of Americans around the country in celebrating the selection of a new pope. Pope Francis had a message to the world: all of us must help lift the most vulnerable up. Pope Leo XIV -- the first American pope -- has my prayers for strength as he leads the Catholic Church.
Washington’s Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians, and Pacific Islanders make our state and our country stronger and more diverse. I'm cosponsoring a Senate resolution recognizing #AANHPIHeritageMonth and the AANHPI community’s contributions to our state’s culture and way of life.
The Trump administration's actions are threatening the viability of local public broadcasting stations across the country. I agree with @ricksteves.bsky.social that these cuts will hurt our communities.

I asked the administration’s nominee for Deputy Secretary of Health and Human Services whether he supports cutting $18 billion from the National Institutes of Health.
The WNBA’s 2024 season attracted more than 54 million viewers, a 170% increase over the previous season. There you go for not paying enough attention to women's basketball in the past.
I am proud to support nurses and everything they do to look after our communities and keep us in good health. Happy #NationalNursesDay to all the dedicated nurses across the State of Washington.
