I will fight to make sure this government shutdown fight does not jack up insurance costs any more for those in our district.

Rep. Adam Smith@adamsmith.house.govNov 12(source)

I completely agree with Ron that insurance companies play a role in bringing up our high health care costs. The United States spends the most amount of money on health care out of any country, yet we don’t get the results we deserve.

Rep. Adam Smith@adamsmith.house.govNov 12(source)

From cutting $186 billion from SNAP earlier this year to refusing to fund SNAP during the shutdown, this Administration has continually jeopardized this program that helps feed tens of thousands in our community.

Rep. Adam Smith@adamsmith.house.govNov 12(source)

38,853 households in Washington's Ninth rely on SNAP funding but the Trump Administration has repeatedly put these benefits in peril.

Rep. Adam Smith@adamsmith.house.govNov 12(source)

Today, the House will be voting on a bill to reopen the government after this 43 day shutdown. This is why I'm voting no: youtube.com/shorts/a7THA...

Rep. Adam Smith@adamsmith.house.govNov 11(source)

I’m continuing to hold to ground for my constituents like William. He deserves his benefits as a veteran, just as he and his neighbors deserve affordable health care. We must come together as a Congress and find a bipartisan solution to this shutdown.

Rep. Adam Smith@adamsmith.house.govNov 11(source)

Happy Veterans Day to all those in WA-09 who faithfully served our nation. I will continue to honor and fight for our veterans and recognize the immense sacrifices they’ve given for the American people.

Rep. Adam Smith@adamsmith.house.govNov 10(source)

I want the government to be open, but will not cave to Trump's demands that hurt my constituents.

Rep. Adam Smith@adamsmith.house.govNov 10(source)

Happy 250th birthday to the United States Marine Corps. Thank you for your relentless service to our country and your fighting spirit. Semper fidelis.

Rep. Adam Smith@adamsmith.house.govNov 9(source)

People in my district can’t afford to foot the bill. I’m fighting for their critical Affordable Care Act tax credits to protect their health care.

Rep. Adam Smith@adamsmith.house.govNov 9(source)

A couple in WA-09 could see health care premiums increase by almost $15,000, all because Republicans prioritize ripping away critical health care from hard-working families over negotiating with Democrats.

Rep. Adam Smith@adamsmith.house.govNov 8(source)

$125 increase per person. That’s the reality that Kathleen in Kent is facing. Republicans are trying to strip your health care by jacking up monthly costs. They must come back to work and deliver for families like Kathleens. I will continue to stand up for you and your health insurance.

Rep. Adam Smith@adamsmith.house.govNov 7(source)

The President doesn't care about affordability, but I know many in the Seattle-area are struggling to make ends meet right now. I'm fighting to lower costs for you.

Rep. Adam Smith@adamsmith.house.govNov 7(source)

The Trump Administration is making a choice to fight against a court order mandating they feed 42 million Americans. They are intent on inflicting the maximum amount of pain on the American people from this shutdown.

Trump admin challenges judge’s order to Pay SNAP benefits in full

Trump admin attorneys filed an appeal challenging Thursday’s ruling that the federal government is required to pay full SNAP benefits.

Rep. Adam Smith@adamsmith.house.govNov 7(source)

Uncompensated care is a huge part of what drives up costs for providers, so we are trying to cover as many Americans as possible under the Affordable Care Act to lower health care prices for all in the marketplace.

Rep. Adam Smith@adamsmith.house.govNov 6(source)

This is robbing Washingtonians of thousands of dollars they need to access critical health care.

Rep. Adam Smith@adamsmith.house.govNov 6(source)

A couple in Seattle could see their monthly health insurance bill increase by over $1,500 next year all because Republicans would rather fund billionaire tax breaks than allow middle class and working-class families to afford coverage.

Rep. Adam Smith@adamsmith.house.govNov 6(source)

I'm grateful to have worked with her throughout the years, witnessed her making history, and setting an example of leadership for generations to come. Thank you, Madam Speaker.

Rep. Adam Smith@adamsmith.house.govNov 6(source)

For almost four decades, Nancy Pelosi has loyally served her constituents in California, as well as her fellow Americans across the country.

Rep. Adam Smith@adamsmith.house.govNov 6(source)

Just last week, President Trump capped refugee admissions at a historic low of 7,500 individuals over the next year. We must resettle refugees who are most at risk and not deny those who have sought safety for years.
