Congressional District 1 - U.S. Representative · King County

Our country is at a crossroads. Congressional Republicans refuse to stand up to Trump as he causes deep harm to our economy, our families, our neighbors, and our democracy. Because of them, costs are skyrocketing on gas, groceries, housing, and utility bills. To pay for massive tax cuts for the wealthiest few, Republicans ripped away health care from millions, passed cruel cuts to take food off the table of working families, and took away critical investments in green energy. As your Congresswoman, I’m fighting back against the extreme policies that are making life unaffordable and needlessly dividing Americans. I’m focused on lowering costs, helping middle-class families and seniors, supporting veterans, and building a bright future for our children. I support policies to lower the cost of living, reduce taxes for working families and ensure the wealthy pay their fair share. I’m fighting to lower health care premiums, roll back the cruel cuts to Medicaid, and end President Trump’s reckless tariffs. To help working families, I’ve led on permanently expanding the Child Tax Credit, which would send monthly checks to families and cut child poverty in half. I’ve introduced bipartisan legislation to spur the creation of two million affordable homes. It’s past time to reform our immigration system and rein in out-of-control ICE agents who have spread fear and violence in our communities. Unlike MAGA Republicans, I’m committed to strengthening Social Security and Medicare. I strongly support reproductive rights and will do everything I can to fight back against Republican extremists’ attempts to pass a nationwide abortion ban. I am honored to have endorsements from Democratic groups, labor unions, local leaders, and many others. With a focus on results, not rhetoric, I’m confident we can make real progress to help everyone in the 1st District. I ask for your vote.

Washington’s First District deserves leadership focused on pragmatic solutions, not the emotionally triggering sideshow antics that serve only to divide us. Our community thrives when we move past partisan distractions and unite to tackle the core economic and structural problems facing our nation. For too long, short-sighted economic policies have allowed multinational corporations to hollow out America’s middle class from within. Offshoring has stripped away vital manufacturing capabilities, leaving our local economies vulnerable. I believe it is time to reverse this trend. By implementing policy-driven solutions that incentivize domestic production, we can return high-quality jobs to Washington and rebuild our economic independence. True economic resilience requires a foundation of security. Our digital infrastructure is currently vulnerable to global disruptions and foreign interference. I will prioritize robust federal investments to safeguard our technology systems, ensuring our grids, communications, and private data remain secure and sovereign. Furthermore, we must shift our economic focus away from Wall Street financiers and billionaires who consolidate wealth at the expense of Main Street. Offshore tax havens create a two-tiered economic system which limits our strategic capacity. My platform calls for addressing the tax problem of the corporate welfare dependents who are costing our country trillions in lost revenue. I will fight for small and medium-sized businesses. These enterprises are the true engines of our economy and the foundation of our local diversity. By lowering regulatory barriers and expanding access to capital for local entrepreneurs, we can foster a diverse, self-sustaining marketplace rooted right here in Washington State. I am running to be a unifying voice in Congress. I am committed to substantive policy that strengthens our industries, secures our digital future, and elevates everyday families over corporate interests. Together, we can reject attempts to divide us and build a strong, prosperous future for ourselves.
