No one deserves to die from extreme political violence, from senseless gun violence. Prayers are not enough.

If Republicans were serious about having an honest conversation about ensuring Washingtonians can access affordable, clean energy, then we should be talking about the impacts the cuts they have made to critical programs like LIHEAP.

Last night I signed a discharge petition to deliver for what our neighbors want: the release of the full Epstein files. And I will continue working with my colleagues to uphold accountability, oversight, and justice.

@seattletimes reports federal officers from US Customs & Border Patrol showed up to ask for IDs, order the firefighters not to record the incident, arrest two members of the fire fighting crew.

THIS IS NOT MAKING AMERICA SAFER.

I was out of DC for a family issue.The signs were looking good for a while that it would die in the Senate, but when the amended version came back to the House I voted no.

I did 7 across the district in March & last month I teamed up with Standing Together Bainbridge Island to do another political side town hall. We’ll have more town halls in Aug/the fall & are also scheduling community meetings and visits. Please use the form at randall.house.gov to request a visit!

This July 4th I resolve to stand strong against tyranny, to fight for freedom and liberty for all of us — not only the richest and most powerful. I refuse to give up on the promise of Our America. Together we can build a better future.

I don’t have the authority to introduce state legislation anymore, but am supportive of state colleagues doing that! We’re continuing to explore federal tools.

20 years later I’m Washington State’s first LGBTQ member of Congress, and the country’s first queer Latina to serve! The parade route, the world, our rights — it all looks different 20 years later.

IT’S PRIDE Y’ALL! 💖🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️💃🏽👯🧚🏽‍♂️👨‍🎤

My first Pride was 20 years ago — my first summer home from college. I was newly out, newly in love, and looking for community. Volunteering at Seattle Pride was such a beautiful way to jump right in!

I don’t believe Trump and Republicans will stop trying to attack our healthcare, but this is a win. Medicaid keeps people alive. It keeps rural hospitals open. It pays for longterm care for so many seniors. Attacking Medicaid is unconscionable and unpopular.
