2025 RECAP: It was a long, tough year—but we have to remember that Trump is not all powerful.
Your voice and your vote MATTERS.
And when we all speak out and fight back, we CAN make a difference.
Let's keep up the fight.

Wishing everyone in Washington state and across the country a Happy New Year.
Let's carry the lessons of 2025 with us as we continue to fight for the true promise of the country we love in the new year.
Republicans have already ensured that 2026 is the year of sky-high health care premiums.
Democrats will not stop working to bring down your costs and make sure everyone can get the health care they need.
2025 RECAP: Trump is the most corrupt President in American history. Each and every day this year, he’s abused his power to line his own pockets & help his billionaire friends.
Trump has created a government run by the crooks, for the crooks.
I'm hearing from WA state small businesses who are feeling the squeeze from Trump's tariffs—with many having to raise prices and some being forced to shut their doors altogether.
More Republicans need to stand up to Trump and join Democrats to reverse these reckless tariffs.
2025 RECAP: Trump's immigration agenda is to use egregious force and tactics to detain people—including U.S. citizens—and frighten entire communities.
His cruel mass deportation agenda has been nothing short of depraved, and there must be accountability.
2025 RECAP: Trump & Republicans moved heaven and earth to make tax breaks for billionaires permanent by cutting Medicaid, SNAP & other programs families rely on.
Their pro-billionaire agenda has exploded the national debt by trillions while betraying working families.
2025 RECAP: Trump and his multi-billionaire Secretary of Education have worked overtime this year to hollow out the Department of Education and hurt students, teachers, and families.
The Pregnant Workers Fairness Act supports millions of workers & their right to basic workplace accommodations while pregnant. I helped pass this law 3 years ago & will keep fighting to prevent the Trump admin from undermining the protections pregnant workers need and deserve.
Families are about to experience the MAGA health care hike. And what did Republicans do to help stop premiums from skyrocketing?
Absolutely nothing.
2025 RECAP: Trump has single-handedly raised taxes on working and middle-class families more than any president in my lifetime with his reckless tariffs—raising costs on everything from groceries and electricity bills.
2025 RECAP: From installing an anti-vax conspiracy theorist as our nation's top health care official to taking an axe to lifesaving biomedical research, the Trump administration has systematically put politics over science.
Trump's HHS has banned nearly 200 words for Head Start programs—like “‘disability,’ ‘women,’ ‘Tribal,’” and more—forcing programs to choose between complying with the law or bending to Trump's unlawful DEI ban to keep funding.
This is outrageous. I'm demanding answers.
Well, we made it through the first year of Trump’s second term—and I’m taking stock of what happened & why we’ve got to keep fighting back.
2025 RECAP: Let's start with Trump unleashing chaos on the American people by letting Elon Musk and DOGE break the federal government.
Measles is PREVENTABLE.
This outbreak is the result of anti-vax conspiracists like RFK Jr. undercutting proven science and putting entire communities at risk.
Republicans outright REFUSED to stop your health care premiums from skyrocketing in January—and now, millions of Americans are being kicked off their health care coverage altogether.
Trump's DHS is arresting people first and asking questions later. This egregious use of force and racial profiling is cruel and should never happen in America.
There must be accountability.
Anti-abortion extremists will stop at nothing to ban abortion and block women from getting abortion pills.
Their latest tactic? Hijacking environmental laws & claiming mifepristone is **poisoning the water.**
It’s as crazy as it is dangerous.
Donald Trump is good at one thing: making everything more expensive.
And while energy prices climb, he’s ripped away critical funding that helps low-income families heat their homes.
The Trump agenda: tax breaks for billionaires, higher costs and painful cuts for working families.
