Trump is weaponizing the justice system to target his enemies. This corrupt abuse of power undermines our rule of law & makes every American less safe. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

With Comey prosecution, Trump fulfills promise of revenge

President Donald Trump’s predecessors sought to preserve the Justice Department’s independence in political prosecutions. Trump openly intervened in the Comey prosecution.

The Trump admin is going to make it harder for Washington seniors & Medicare beneficiaries to get the health care they need by putting new prior authorization requirements in place & using AI to deny services. I’m urging the admin to stop this half-baked plan. www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...

Congresswoman Suzan DelBene@repdelbene.bsky.socialSep 25(source)

Republicans are refusing to negotiate with Democrats over funding the government & are threatening a shutdown that would raise costs & take away health care. Working families can’t afford this chaos. It’s time to get back to DC & deliver solutions for the American people. @newdems.bsky.social

Congresswoman Suzan DelBene@repdelbene.bsky.socialSep 25(source)

Instead of working with Democrats to avoid a shutdown, Trump is doubling down on illegally slashing services families rely on. His plan means layoffs, higher health care costs, & Americans unable to access basic federal programs like Social Security, Medicare, & Medicaid.

White House threatens mass firings if government shuts down

Thousands of workers could permanently lose their jobs if Congress doesn't reach an agreement to fund the government by Oct. 1.

🚍⚡ Exciting day in Redmond celebrating 4 new electric school buses for Lake Washington School District! These green buses will help students get to school while cutting emissions!

Great to tour Centro Cultural Mexicano, learn more about their work, & see their upcoming Hispanic Heritage Month Art Exhibition opening Thursday. From cultural events to youth programs, they’re making a real difference in our community.

Thank you to the teachers & school leaders who joined my educator forum last night to discuss the challenges our schools face & how I can support them at the federal level. I’m going to continue working to ensure our classrooms have what they need to help our kids excel.

Kimmel’s back—proof that public pressure can make a difference. But folks in our region won’t be able to watch tonight because KOMO’s owner, Sinclair, refuses to air the show on its ABC stations. It’s corporate cowardice to censor programming just because the president doesn’t like it.

KOMO won’t air return of Jimmy Kimmel’s show in Seattle, owner says

Sinclair-affiliated stations, including KOMO in Seattle and KATU in Oregon, won’t air Jimmy Kimmel's show despite its reinstatement by ABC on Monday.

BREAKING: Trump cancels a meeting with the Democratic leaders in Congress. He doesn't want to negotiate about government funding or the Republican health care crisis. He is leading us into a government shutdown. apnews.com/article/trum...

Political violence has no place in our democracy. We must come together—regardless of party—to condemn it.

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

When Canadians stop visiting WA because of Trump’s tariffs & antagonism, local shops, restaurants & workers feel it. Our communities depend on strong cross-border travel.

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

Republican cuts to public health, medical research, & Apple Health are already forcing hospitals in our region to cut jobs. This will only get worse if enhanced subsidies for WA Health Benefits Exchange expire at the end of the year.

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

I voted NO on House Republicans’ damaging funding bill. It fails to protect our health care system & would lead to premiums going up by 65% next year for Washingtonians who get coverage on WA Health Plan Finder. We must keep fighting to lower costs & ensure everyone has access to quality care.

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

Trump put a 50% tariff on Brazil because he’s upset they convicted his buddy Bolsonaro for staging a coup. Now Americans are paying more for coffee & beef. You shouldn’t have to foot the bill for his personal retribution against an important U.S partner.

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

Cancer doesn’t wait & neither should we. Federal research funding is being held up by the Trump administration, even as breakthroughs hinge on these investments. I’m fighting to ensure our scientists have the resources they need to develop the lifesaving treatments of tomorrow.

I’m fighting to ensure they don’t expire at the end of the year & families don't get stuck with higher health care bills.

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

I met with Washington Health Benefit Exchange & Community Health Plan of Washington to discuss enhanced health insurance subsidies that have lowered health care premiums for thousands of WA families.
