(Prefers Democratic Party) statement appears human

I was raised by a single mom who came to this country as a refugee. As a child in Seattle, we experienced housing insecurity, medical debt, and gun violence. We achieved stability when she found a union healthcare job, and I joined Rainier Scholars. It’s time for change in Olympia, to address urgent needs and restore hope: housing affordability for struggling families, quality childcare for working parents, interest limits on medical debt, and early interventions that keep kids learning. Let’s do this, together. Endorsements: Representative Dawn Mason, Chris Reykdal, Sage Leaders, College Democrats of Washington, Jaelynn Scott, and Hannah Sabio-Howell.
