From a verified voter in Vancouver, WAI am your constituent and I want you to know that the Mining Regulatory Clarity Act (H.R.2925) is a massive give away to corporations who will occupy and damage public land in perpetuity.

From a verified voter in Tacoma, WAVA Executive Bonuses Should be Returned to Government

From a verified voter in Vancouver, WAI am your constituent and I am fed up with “facility fees” added to medical bills. Even if the process were transparent, we have to pay them anyway to get to our doctor or have our outpatient procedure/tests performed. Some companies even add them on to tele-health phone calls. This is another wa
From a verified voter in Seattle, WATake action on Rafah
Israel has initiated a deadly ground invasion into Rafah, resulting in the loss of hundreds of lives, including men, women, and children.

From a verified voter in Puyallup, WAStop blaming Palestine and students and blame Netanyahu
Enough is enough. Demand Israel to come to a ceasefire or divest and stop giving them assistance. Just because they are an ally does not mean they get free will to commit genocide.

From a verified voter in Vancouver, WAThe antisemitism awareness act that was just rammed through the House is a steaming pile of bullshit.

From a constituent in Seattle, WAPlease push Leader Schumer to bring up for a vote the confirmation of confirmed Julie Su as Labor Secretary. This has gone on too long.

From a constituent in Seattle, WASupport the Right of Students to Protest

From a verified voter in Oak Harbor, WAI am deeply concerned that our Supreme Court is seemingly mocking democracy by avoiding the simple understanding that no one, not even a president or former president, is above the law.
