Health care premiums are rising. SNAP benefits aren’t being paid.
And House Republicans? They’re on vacation while Americans struggle to make ends meet.
Great to meet with the new University of Washington President Robert Jones to discuss federal priorities that impact higher education, research, & innovation in Washington. Excited to continue working together to ensure UW students & researchers have the tools they need to succeed.
While House Republicans are on week 5 of their paid vacation, @momsrising.org Kristin Rowe-Finkbeiner & I were in DC highlighting how Republicans’ refusal to extend ACA tax credits means higher premiums for Washington families.
No tricks—just treats!🎃🍬
Here are some trick-or-treat events happening in our community on 10/31!
SNAP puts food on the table for 900,000 Washingtonians & strengthens our economy. President Trump is choosing to cut off funding for it this weekend. This cruelty must end.
One month into the Republican shutdown & families are paying the price because House Republicans refuse to come back to DC & do their jobs.
Tariffs aren’t a treat, they’re a trick on families. Halloween candy prices are up nearly 11% from 2024 because of Trump’s trade war.

I’m grateful to @atg.wa.gov Nick Brown for leading a lawsuit demanding that Trump release funding that Congress already approved to keep SNAP benefits going in November so families don’t go hungry.
President Trump is making a conscious decision to withhold funding that Congress approved to keep food assistance running for 42 million Americans. The cruelty is the point.
💵 No paychecks.
🍎 No food aid.
💼 No stability.
Families shouldn’t pay the price of the Republican Shutdown. Republicans need to come back to DC & do their jobs.
Families shouldn’t go hungry while Trump & Republicans play games. If the administration doesn’t act, SNAP runs out Nov. 1. I joined my colleagues urging the release of SNAP contingency funds approved by Congress so families don’t go hungry.
Republicans need to release the SNAP funding & come to the table to end the shutdown so 42 million Americans don’t go hungry.
Outside today’s Steering & Policy hearing, I joined @momsrising.org Kristin Rowe-Finkbeiner to call out Trump for withholding federal food assistance funding that Congress approved for emergencies like this.
Republican cuts are closing rural hospitals & putting lives at risk. Democrats are fighting to keep care within reach for every American.
Trump’s illegal tariffs are hitting families’ wallets. Democrats are fighting back to lower costs by urging the Supreme Court to overturn them.
Trump’s tariffs aren’t just numbers on a chart. They’re hitting Washington’s ports, workers, & small businesses hard. Fewer imports mean lost jobs & higher prices for families across our state.
Beginning Nov. 1, families in WA could lose access to Head Start because of the Republican shutdown. These programs help kids learn, grow & succeed. House Republicans need to return to DC & negotiate so families don’t lose vital services.
Congrats to the Mountlake Terrace Hawks for capturing their first-ever league title! Well done to the players, coaches, & community for this achievement.
