Among the many issues he fought for was more affordable housing. Once we met for coffee and ended up on a walking tour downtown with Frank pointing out various successful affordable housing projects and Frank advocating why we needed so much more. (2/3)
We never want to see a disaster like this again. That’s why I worked with Rep. DelBene to pass a law that’s improved how we recognize and prepare for catastrophic landslide risks. Along with Senator Murkowski, I’m now working to renew and expand that program. (4/4)
Today, on the 11th anniversary of the Oso landslide, we honor the 43 people whose lives were suddenly cut short. My thoughts are with their friends and families on this difficult day. (1/4)
We need to stand up and fight against Medicaid cuts. We need to tell people that Medicaid is a lifesaving program that has been successful. Medicaid has helped us reduce uncompensated care costs, it has given sick people hope, and it's helped our hospitals provide great care.
There is a tsunami of Medicaid cuts coming at the people of Washington, and I guarantee you this is not a drill. We need everyone to call their member of Congress and the White House and say: “This massive cut to Medicaid is not what we want.”
The chaotic tariffs that this administration is pushing have never proved successful in the history of the United States. And yet that is the preposterous trail that we are now on.
Congress has the authority and responsibility to direct federal spending based on the needs of their constituents. Turning that work over to the White House puts important programs like NOAA experts working on salmon recovery or creating weather forecasts at risk. (4/4)
... and impacts our farmers by cutting $57 million from USDA’s important agriculture research facilities. A bipartisan congressional effort to finish all appropriations bills would have delivered better results for taxpayers. (3/4)
This bill endangers the health of Americans by cutting $280 million from the National Institutes of Health; jeopardizes the state of Washington’s maritime economy by slashing the Army Corps of Engineers by 44 percent ... (2/4)
Building off that work, we coauthored the largest investment in coastal resilience projects in history. While I will miss Raúl’s friendship, his legacy will live on for generations as the programs he created continue to benefit communities in Arizona and across the nation. (2/2)
During his 22 years in Congress, Raúl was a stalwart protector of Tribal communities, public lands, and our nation’s oceans and coasts. As Chairs in our respective chambers, we worked together to pass the largest oceans legislative package in decades. (1/2)
JUST IN: Arizona Democratic Rep. Raúl Grijalva has died at 77 due to complications from cancer treatment. cnn.it/3Frkpvb
A fierce guardian of our cherished salmon, Billy changed the way we look at the environment. Because of his advocacy, we now have environmental restoration efforts throughout the Puget Sound. (2/2)
