“Let’s get building! The signing of the Record of Decision brings the Pacific Northwest one step closer to replacing the aging Interstate Bridge with the modern, resilient crossing our region has needed for decades.

This investment will modernize one of eastern Washington's most important freight corridors by reducing congestion, improving safety, and keeping goods moving through Spokane Valley more efficiently. Upgrading the Sullivan and Trent…

Replacing the Fishing Wars Memorial Bridge is essential to restoring a critical freight and commuter connection that supports the Port of Tacoma, Joint Base Lewis-McChord, Tribal communities, and thousands of Washington jobs. Before its…

This is especially important for our seniors and people living in rural areas to have their voices counted.

I ask the USTR to negotiate in good faith with our partners and extend the agreement.

Our country has long held that children born on U.S. soil or U.S. territories are citizens. Today they no longer have to worry about an administration who tried to deny them this right.

Unfounded attacks on safe and secure by-mail voting should stop, including the Postmaster imposing a rule to delay postmarking.

The court has affirmed what we have known all along: states have the right to set rules for counting ballots when they are received.

Integrated care and the partnership that is between Frontier Behavioral Health and the CHAS Healthcare System is really rethinking how healthcare works, and it's being delivered here in Spokane.

Too many people are falling through the cracks. More than 4,000 low-income residents in downtown Spokane do not have access to a community health center, let alone integrated behavioral health services.

I fought to secure $2 million for this Health Resource[s and] Service[s] Administration grant to help build this 9,800-square-foot facility to integrate behavioral health and primary care, and say we can have one-stop healthcare shopping.

I ask my colleagues to stand up for their constituents — because if we don’t stop this administration’s war on voting rights, I guarantee you, millions of Americans will be disenfranchised.

The Administration will use the Supreme Court’s inhumane TPS decision to send thousands of law-abiding immigrants back to unstable and dangerous home countries. Congress must act to rectify the error.

Snohomish County, Washington, recently conducted a test to assess the postal delivery times in their area.

Voting in America is your right. Americans have been beaten, they’ve been bloodied, and they’ve given their lives to secure that right. Disenfranchisement today is more bureaucratic, and it’s more technical, but the results for ordinary…

I think what’s going to come up is that [athletic directors] and presidents are going to get their comeuppance from regents who were all of a sudden like, ‘What the hell are you doing?’

“My colleagues have done a good job of talking about the care, but I don't think anybody is talking about the cost,”

I think that’s probably what would make the most sense to get everybody’s viewpoint properly represented.

Women are bearing these unbelievable tragedies in their life, but they're also bearing all this extra cost because somebody promulgated this rule on our health care system."

Four years after Dobbs, women are worse off. They are traveling farther, paying more, and facing greater barriers to care. Since Idaho imposed a restrictive abortion ban, more than one-third of the state’s OB-GYNs have left – and women are…

We are equally opposed to the Take Care of America’s Veterans Act because it codifies the same harmful reductions in benefits for veterans with tinnitus and sleep apnea benefits.

We urge you to honor that commitment by abandoning these proposals and to further reject any legislation that would permanently cut off these benefits to veterans.

Housing is a crisis in America and huge bipartisan majorities passed this bill on to the President’s desk. He should now sign it or pledge not to veto it. Doing anything else is just sticking Americans with higher housing costs.

We urge you to listen to the growing opposition from veterans and publicly commit to addressing their concerns.
