Trick-or-treating is going to be more expensive this year thanks to Trump’s tariffs & reckless war with Iran. Halloween candy prices are up 15 percent, with some favorites jumping even more.

High gas prices are squeezing American families & Trump just admitted he couldn’t care less. The only thing he’s focused on is big profits for oil companies.

Washingtonians are paying over $5/gallon for gas & $7/gallon for diesel. Grocery prices are skyrocketing. Health care, housing, & child care are all becoming increasingly unaffordable. Instead of trying to fix this mess, the president is focused on yet another vanity project. cnn.com/2026/10/19/politics/…

Meta is trying to use a federal program meant to foster innovation to fund its massive data center buildout. That’s why I’m leading the charge in Congress to fight against this potential abuse of the tax credit & stand up for our communities. semafor.com/article/10/15/20…

Thanks to Apple Health, Dawn was able to get the care she needed & could afford to stay in her home.     Republican cuts to Medicaid are set to take this vital lifeline away for hundreds of thousands of Washingtonians.

Trump is using his ridiculous ballroom as yet another pay-to-play scheme in his administration.     New documents reveal donors to the project were rewarded with lucrative government contracts, relaxed regulations, & a pardon for a family member.     The president is only interested in how he can use the office to benefit himself, not the American people.   washingtonpost.com/investiga…

Bellevue is home to so many incredible innovators that are developing the technology of tomorrow.     I joined the Bellevue Chamber to highlight the importance of supporting our local space sector.

Truly no words for the absolute horror of what unfolded at Silver Rail Elementary today. Schools should be safe havens for our children, not places of unthinkable violence. My heart is completely broken for the victims, their families, & the entire Bend community grappling with this tragedy. Incredibly grateful to local law enforcement & first responders who rushed to protect students & staff. seattletimes.com/seattle-new…

I stand in strong support with @CongressmanRaja, his family, Indian American, & Hindu communities across the country. No one should have to live in fear of violence for how they worship. Grateful for the swift actions of law enforcement that handled this threat. As a nation, we must vehemently condemn violence & hatred in all forms.

Forget Trump’s so-called “Golden Age of America”    The president just broke the record for the most days ever with gas prices over $4 per gallon.
