Premiums are doubling or even tripling & House Republicans are refusing to act. Families deserve affordable care, not higher costs. I want to hear from you if you’re facing higher premiums next year. Share your story with me at delbene.house.gov/shareyourstory.

It’s been a month since the House has been out of session because the Speaker refuses to call members back to work. While Republicans stay on vacation, the government remains shut down & families across the country are paying the price. It’s time to get back to work.

Health care costs are about to soar in WA & across the country. Democrats are fighting for affordable health care while Republicans are trying to kick millions off their coverage.

Congresswoman Suzan DelBene@repdelbene.bsky.socialOct 22(source)

Families in WA are seeing their health care bills go up. Some could pay 2–3x more for their insurance premiums next year because of Republican policies. Here are just some examples. I need your help to fight back against rising costs. Share your story at DelBene.house.gov/ShareYourStory.

The IRS should serve the public, not the President’s political agenda. Trump’s reported plan to target left-leaning groups is outright corruption. I’m demanding an investigation!

Congresswoman Suzan DelBene@repdelbene.bsky.socialOct 22(source)

Speaker Johnson has refused to call the House back to session for a month while the government remains shutdown. Republicans are on vacation & have made no efforts to negotiate. Democrats are ready to get to work & deliver for hardworking Americans.

Congresswoman Suzan DelBene@repdelbene.bsky.socialOct 22(source)

I want to hear from you about the impact of these challenges. Share your story with me at DelBene.house.gov/ShareYourStory so we can keep fighting to lower costs and hold Republicans responsible for their damaging policies.

I hear from many constituents who are worried about how these issues in Washington, DC are impacting their lives and communities — and I want to hear from you.

Trump's number one priority is enriching himself, not fighting for you.

Federal workers across WA are feeling the impact of the shutdown. Republicans need to return to DC, do their jobs, & end this needless harm to working families.

Congresswoman Suzan DelBene@repdelbene.bsky.socialOct 21(source)

Trump is more focused on tearing apart the White House to install a Mar-a-Lago style ballroom than reopening the government or making sure you can afford health care. Never forget he cares more about himself than you.

Happy Diwali! May this festival of lights bring peace, joy, & new beginnings to all who celebrate.

Congresswoman Suzan DelBene@repdelbene.bsky.socialOct 20(source)

Republicans know they’re about to double or even TRIPLE your health care bills & they refuse to do anything about it. Democrats are fighting to make your care more affordable.

Congresswoman Suzan DelBene@repdelbene.bsky.socialOct 19(source)

The Republican government shutdown is putting our national security at risk. Furloughing 80% of the civilian staff that manage our nuclear weapons is reckless and dangerous. Republicans need to come to the negotiating table.

Top nuclear weapons agency to furlough most staff amid shutdown

House Republicans pointed to the staff reductions as a national security consequence of the shutdown, pressing Senate Democrats to yield and vote to reopen the government.

Congresswoman Suzan DelBene@repdelbene.bsky.socialOct 18(source)

Wonderful to join our community to celebrate Diwali & share in the joy, hope, & renewal it represents. 🪔 🪔 🪔

Congresswoman Suzan DelBene@repdelbene.bsky.socialOct 17(source)

Republicans just gave themselves another week of vacation instead of coming to the table to end the shutdown. Hard to reopen the government when they don’t show up to work.

Congresswoman Suzan DelBene@repdelbene.bsky.socialOct 17(source)

I caught up with @repemilyrandall.bsky.social about how the Republican shutdown is impacting Washington.
