It was great to tour DeGoede Farms yesterday to talk about their partnership with @goodrootsnw to deliver fresh food for Washingtonians in need! Thank you for feeding and supporting our communities.

Medicine that people need to survive should never be unaffordable or out of reach. As a doctor and someone with Type 1 diabetes, I know that costs are too high.

I am heartbroken by yesterday’s shooting at Silver Rail Elementary School in Bend, Oregon. I am thinking of the victims, their families, the brave first responders, and our neighbors in Oregon.
