I spoke with Seattle's Union Gospel Mission about the work they’re doing to treat the housing, homelessness, and drug epidemic in our community. By adding more housing, promoting mental health care, and providing logical solutions, Seattle will be a better city.

Strong unions combat economic inequality and uphold workers' rights, which is more important now than ever. I am proud to support the PRO Act to protect employees' rights to collectively bargain, crack down on worker misclassification, and authorize penalties to those who violate workers' rights.

As the son of a union member and baggage handler at SeaTac Airport, I am proud to be an original cosponsor on the bipartisan Richard L. Trumka Protecting the Right to Organize (PRO) Act of 2025.

The President must rescind these reckless 25% tariffs and implement policies that actually help American workers. www.seattletimes.com/business/wha...

What Trump tariffs mean for Amazon, Boeing and WA’s very global economy

“It's a double whammy for us,” Port of Seattle Commissioner Sam Cho said of the tariffs targeting Canada, China and Mexico. “It’s going to be really, really harmful.”

Donald Trump believes his trade war will only affect countries abroad, but his overly broad tariffs will hit Washingtonians hard. Slower exports could result in lost jobs, while more expensive imports may spur inflation.

My office held our first procurement workshop of the month this morning with APEX Accelerators to help folks learn how to win contracts and bids. Thanks to those who came out and I hope you can join next week.

Friday marks 60 years since hundreds of marchers were attacked in Selma, Alabama while demonstrating for the right to vote. Today, the fight for voting rights is just as urgent. That's why House Democrats are introducing the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act.

The House suddenly lost Congressman Sylvester Turner last night. My heart goes out to his family, friends, and the citizens of Texas's 18th District. His decades of public service showed a selfless drive to better the city of Houston, and he will be deeply missed.

President Trump’s speech last night was full of lies, distortions, insults, and a bunch of anecdotes—none of which addressed the economic challenges that the American people are facing.

Without their work, Washingtonians risk a cut to their electricity supply and steep rate increases. This work by the administration is unacceptable and must be reversed. www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news...

Trump ‘plays with fire’ in cutting Bonneville Power Administration, insiders say

“This whole exercise would be ludicrous if it weren’t so serious,” said Randy Hardy, who headed BPA in the 1990s. “Cuts to this kind of thing plays with fire.”

Rep. Adam Smith@adamsmith.house.govMar 4(source)

I recently signed onto a letter with members of WA's Congressional Delegation to Department of Energy Secretary Chris Wright condemning the Trump administrations executive order that resulted in workers being laid off at Bonneville Power Administration, the PNW's largest source of electricity.

U.S.A.I.D. Memos Detail Human Costs of Cuts to Foreign Aid

The world is likely to see millions more malaria infections and 200,000 cases of paralytic polio each year, according to an agency whistle-blower.

Rep. Adam Smith@adamsmith.house.govMar 4(source)

Because of President Trump's shortsighted and destructive decision to decimate foreign assistance, we could see: - Up to 18 million more cases of malaria per year, and as many as 166,000 additional deaths - An up to 38% increase in tuberculosis

Thanks to the Washington State Council of Fire Fighters for coming to my office. These firefighters are some of our state’s bravest, most selfless people, and I’ll continue to support their union.

Today, I met with the Bellevue College Associated Student Government who spoke with me about funding to higher education, student opportunities, and collegiate programs across our state. Appreciate you being here.

“Tonight’s decision makes us less safe and makes continued war in Ukraine more likely. ... While Republicans choose to sit silently, thousands upon thousands of Ukrainians will die as our own national security is weakened by our own commander in chief." HASC Ranking Member@adamsmith.house.gov

The HOPE for Homeownership Act will crack down on corporate greed and make housing more affordable.

Rep. Adam Smith@adamsmith.house.govMar 3(source)

Last week, I introduced legislation to continue my effort to kick hedge funds out of our nation’s housing market. Too many families struggle to meet rent payments or even afford to buy a home because large investors are squeezing out prospective buyers.
