I have been a long-time supporter of closing the gender wage cap and am a cosponsor of the Paycheck Fairness Act, which would limit differences in pay to factors of education, training, or experience.

105 years ago, women were given to right to vote. Since then, we’ve seen some very strong women emerge as leaders in our country, yet women are still not given the same benefits as men.

We need to show we're going to stand with Ukraine. ... That's what needs to happen in President Trump's meeting with President Zelensky tomorrow. Let's keep supporting Ukraine, support President Zelensky, and bring an end to Putin's war.

Kristopher asked me two questions last night during our Virtual Town Hall, firstly about the release of the Epstein files and secondly about protecting the Smithsonian museums from censorship and whitewashing.
During my Virtual Town Hall last night, Candance from Renton asked me about where her tax dollars are going under the Trump administration and how we can push back against ICE raids.

“Putin can be convinced that he can't win this militarily & has to negotiate. But to do that ... Trump has to offer up stronger resistance & ... put some punishment on Putin for continuing this war. That's the opportunity he has …., we'll see if he does it.”

Yesterday, I toured the BloodWorks facility in Renton and heard about their work to support those in emergency situations. Thank you for sharing your stories and providing the bloodwork needed to care for those in need.
SEIU 6 represents janitorial workers, airport employees, security officers, and event employees who deserve to have secure worksites and higher wages. We had a great conversation about their priorities and concerns for the future.
I look forward to continuing to work with WSLC and the Labor community to create a more durable Democratic brand, platform, and coalition.
I met with leaders of the Washington State Labor Council on Thursday at my Kent office to talk about the Trump Administration's plans to cut Medicaid and its proposed pilot project in WA state to use AI for Medicaid preauthorization.
I’m committed to continuing to advocate and support opportunities that invest in the talent of our young people.
Our district is a leading force in technological innovation, and that starts with investing in our youth. I met with two Bellevue School District Robotics teams today to discuss their priorities for STEM education in the region and the impacts of state and federal funding cuts.
We need to fight back, but we need to fight smart.
I joined New Deal Leaders to discuss this moment in our democracy and the work of the Democratic caucus.
I am committed to protecting Social Security for each and every one of my constituents.
President Trump is firing Social Security Administration employees, delaying services and making it more difficult for Americans to access their earned benefits, including over 112,000 people in Washington's Ninth District.
90 years ago, Social Security was signed into law.
Today, it’s under attack.
Thank you to Bellevue LifeSpring for welcoming me to their Family Hub. These hubs are spread across schools in the Bellevue School District to provide families with basic needs, housing, health care referrals, and more. These services have been a great help to those in the Eastside.
I toured the Issaquah Creek Ecological Restoration Project at Lake Sammamish State Park. Earlier this year the Trump administration and the EPA had frozen federal funding for this project. I am glad to see this funding unfrozen since this work will preserve our public lands for years to come.
Today in Auburn, I held a Community Health Centers Roundtable to discuss how the Big Ugly Bill’s Medicaid and SNAP cuts will impact those attending these centers. We need affordable healthcare to keep our neighbors healthy, so I thank you for taking the time to share your concerns with me today.
This is the most troubling part of the D.C. news:
