The United States and Canada have been strong allies for decades, and I intend to continue building our relationship. I sat down with Canadian Consul General Craig Weichel in my
District Office to discuss how we can grown our partnership in the our community.

This bill doesn't lower a single standard — it removes barriers that keeps qualified professionals from contributing at the level of their skills. That's a practical, commonsense fix to a workforce problem employers across the country are asking us to solve.
I introduced the Welcome Back to the Health Care Workforce Act alongside @congressmanraja.bsky.social to help address the nation's persistent health care workforce shortage by helping internationally educated health care professionals overcome barriers to practicing in the United States.
Investing in early childhood education sets our children up for a future of success, so I appreciated Refugee Women's' Alliance and Low Income Housing Institute for giving me a tour of their Early Learning and Affordable Housing Complex. Thanks for showing me around.
As only 23% of public-school teaching roles are occupied by men and 28% of AmeriCorps volunteers are filled by men, this legislation would help young people's development, address teacher shortages, and improve community engagement. I'm proud to lead this effort in the House.
I was proud to introduce the Educators for America Act and Building Community in America Act alongside Sen. Mark Kelly to expand pathways for Americans to serve as teachers, mentors, and volunteers. These bills strengthen paid teaching opportunities and national service programs to recruit more men.
My colleague @jayapal.house.gov and I have introduced the Dignity for Detained Immigrants Act to end the use of for-profit immigration detention facilities and ensure that every person is treated with respect.
There’s no doubt that our immigration system needs to be reformed, and that starts by phasing out the use of private, for-profit detention centers. Many of these facilities have been criticized for unsafe and inhumane conditions, while private companies profit from the detention of immigrants.

“Politics is the essence of representative democracy.”
@adamsmith.house.gov says democracy depends on resolving differences, not rejecting politics altogether.
“You cannot be a democracy if you hate politics. You just can’t.”

It’s time to remove Donald Trump from office.
Family homes should belong to families, and this bill would put these houses back within their reach.
I introduced the Protecting American Homes from Hedge Funds Act to alongside @khanna.house.gov, @replindasanchez.bsky.social, and @repnikema.bsky.social to remove institutional investors from the single-family housing market and restore opportunities to everyday people.
My father, a baggage handler at SeaTac Airport, bought our family home in 1971 for $15,000. Today, that very same house would cost $526,000. Hedge funds and wealthy corporations continue to buy up single-family homes, kicking working-class Americans out of the housing market.
It’s time to remove Donald Trump from office.
President Trump really is an authoritarian who wants to grab as much power for himself as possible.

"The President of the United States is now in a fight with Iran over who can extort the rest of the world."

"Another thing we could do is actually work with the rest of the nations in the world ... instead of constantly belittling them & fighting them. Diplomacy ... is the only way out of this."
- @adamsmith.house.gov on how to end Trump's war against Iran.
As much as our education system helps our students, having tools to support their independence after they graduate is incredibly important.
A four-year college education is out of reach for many working-class families, and it’s important that there are other avenues for success. Washington high school seniors could take a class teaching them practical life skills, including building a resume, registering to vote, and applying for jobs.
