I was proud to cosponsor the Epstein Files Transparency Act to push for the full release of all documents relating to Jeffrey Epstein.
The cost of inflation under the Trump administration has cost Washington families an extra $948 so far this year.
The country needs the Epstein files to be released to bring clarity and closure.
We must find new pathways to build safe and affordable housing. Whether that’s creating more homes near public transit or creating prefabricated housing, I am a strong supporter of increasing the supply of housing to lower the cost of rent in our community.
Please join me on Saturday at 12 p.m. PT for a Virtual Town Hall. Attendees can join a livestream on Instagram, YouTube, X, or Facebook at @RepAdamSmith. It’s important to me that as your congressman, I hear your questions and concerns, so I hope you’ll join us on Saturday afternoon.
I was proud to introduce the Protect Adoptees and American Families Act this year, which would provide long overdue citizenship to international adoptees who were legally adopted in the U.S. but never gained citizenship status due to a gap in current law.
November marks National Adoption Month, a time to bring more awareness to adoption and shine a light on adoptive families.
ACA marketplace coverage will also increase drastically in 2026, risking the health care coverage for millions more Americans. Leaving Americans uninsured damages the entire system, causing a ripple effect through the health care market.
In 2026, there's a higher risk that more Americans will go uninsured. Medicare Part B premiums will increase by almost 10% and potentially risk the health care coverage of 64 million Medicare recipients.
Our country cannot afford to pay more for all types of health care coverage next year, and it's time to address this ongoing health care crisis.
The Trump Administration continues to increase prices for Americans.
Health care premiums for 2026 are expected to be drastically higher, from Medicare Part B to the ACA Marketplace.
The Trump Administration is weakening our health care system by systematically cutting funding and access to care.
As a direct result of President Trump's Big Ugly Bill, almost 300 jobs will be cut from Providence Swedish's First Hill, Cherry Hill, Ballard, and Issaquah hospitals and clinics. These are not the only layoffs we've seen in our health care system in Washington state in recent months.
Susan tuned into my virtual town hall and asked about ICE raids across the country. This is how I plan to protect our community:
The Trump administration is clearly violating individual rights and denying due process to people within our country.
Last night, I held a virtual town hall with over 13,000 constituents. To open up our conversation, I spoke about affordability and tackling the high costs of health care, housing, and energy.
Trump's tariffs are driving up prices and hurting the cost of living in this country.
Earlier this month, I sat down with local experts for a food insecurity roundtable to discuss the impacts of SNAP cuts, demand for services, and reduced funding to purchase food. Hunger should never be weaponized in our country, and I look forward to continuing our work to bring food to the table.
Reposted byRep. Adam Smith
Rep. Smith: One of the cornerstones of Trump's campaign was inflation is too high. Then he comes in and puts tariffs on everything. Now, belatedly, he's figuring out that he set the house on fire, so maybe he ought to put it out. Trump has done literally nothing to help the high cost of living
