Trump’s rollout of the EHR system in WA state created life-threatening problems & obstacles for veterans’ to get the health care they need. Rushing the deployment of this system while serious issues remain is a recipe for disaster. I'm demanding answers.
Whooping cough is PREVENTABLE with vaccines—but under RFK Jr.’s anti-vax and quack science directives, the Trump admin is turning back the clock on critical public health progress. Our children and families deserve so much better.
Republicans control the House, Senate, and White House. If they wanted to lower your health care costs, they would. The truth is: Republicans do not care one bit if your health care premiums explode.
The Trump administration is doubling the level of cancer-causing chemical formaldehyde Americans can be exposed to. Is that going to Make America Healthy Again?  SPEAK UP against this giveaway to the chemical industry.
Trump & RFK Jr. are threatening hospitals to stop providing care for trans youth—including in WA state. This is dangerous & wrong.   Families & their doctors know what’s best for them. NOT the federal government. Democrats will fight back.
UPDATE: The criminal charges against Wilmer have been DISMISSED. His record is CLEAR. Trump's DHS has absolutely no credibility. Federal agents sicced an attack dog on an innocent man, watched as he was mauled, denied him medical care, and lied about it. Shameful.
My constituent, Wilmer, was mauled by an ICE attack dog despite the fact that, as he has consistently explained, he was not resisting arrest or trying to flee—his wife and young children, all U.S. citizens, were forced to watch helplessly as Wilmer was violently attacked and dragged away.
Today I received FOUR death notifications for people in ICE custody. That's 30 deaths since Trump took office. It's appalling & unacceptable.   ICE is required—by law—to ensure detainees are safe & their basic needs are met. It's clear this isn't the case. We NEED answers.
Exactly zero veterans think the problem with the VA health care system is that there are *too many* staff providing care. But Trump's VA has now decided it won't fill thousands of open positions. We need answers about what this will mean for veterans.
Open Enrollment in Idaho ended Monday—our first look at the very real damage caused by Republican health care sabotage.   Twice as many people dropped coverage. New enrollments dropped 24%.   Idaho is the canary in the coal mine.
The top 5 states where health care premiums are jumping by the highest percentage? All Republican states. The next 5? Also Republican states. And yet, the vast majority of Republicans couldn’t be bothered when it came to saving the ACA tax credits.
Trump is trying to BAN states from regulating AI in *any* way to protect your safety and privacy. He couldn't get the votes in Congress to do it—so he's threatening to sue or yank funding from any state that stands up to tech billionaires. This is a massive, corrupt overreach.
ICYMI: Speaker Johnson is REFUSING to let the House vote on a bill to extend the ACA tax credits this month. People are buying health coverage NOW—January is TOO LATE. Republican Leaders won't do a thing to help families keep their health care.
Conditions at the Northwest Detention Center are unacceptable—and a year of Trump's cruel mass deportation campaign has made the situation far worse.   I'm sounding the alarm on overcrowding, lack of medical care, food, & more at ICE facilities. We need answers and accountability.
I take my responsibility to support our troops and their families seriously, and I always will. I voted against the annual defense bill because it doesn't do enough to curb the Trump administration's lawlessness that puts us all at risk—& leaves out key provisions I worked on.
The storms in WA state have been a sobering reminder: the decisions we make in DC really matter for families back home. 20 years ago, I secured funding for Mount Vernon to build a flood wall. Now, that flood wall is preventing major flooding from devastating the city's downtown.
