The GOP’s SNAP cuts aren’t just cruel to vulnerable families, but a punch to small grocers, especially in rural areas.
Less funding means lost jobs and shuttered stores. When local grocers go under, the entire community pays the price.

Washington is among the states hit hardest by cuts from President Trump and the MAGA Congress.

The most vulnerable will lose their coverage or even lose services at their closest hospital.

These cuts will be felt by all Washingtonians.

If there were any doubts about why the Epstein files haven’t been released…

The Majority couldn't decide what to do about the Epstein Files, so they sent Congress home early.

The Approps Committee called off too, meaning they conveniently won't vote tomorrow on my amendment requiring the files to be released to Congress.

This isn't a partisan issue, it's about accountability and not giving the powerful a free pass.

Release the files now.

Under the budget reconciliation bill, everyday families will come out in the negative, while Wall Street reaps the real benefits.

Its soaring national debt increase will worsen inflation and interest rates – and drive up costs on energy, food, and healthcare.

This is what happens when balance and bipartisanship suffer at the hands of single-party control in D.C. – so I voted no.

This budget reconciliation bill undermines the economic power of hardworking families – all to give a boost to the well-to-do.

Plus, it's one of the largest explosions of our deficit EVER from a single bill.

Southwest Washington deserved a better deal – so I voted no.

$4 trillion might just seem like another number on paper to politicians in D.C. – but if distributed, it would be $31,000 for every U.S. household.

That’s a massive explosion to our debt.

Families in Southwest Washington know it – and I do too.

It’s why I voted no.
