Washington Open Letters
From a constituent in Seattle, WAThank you for co-sponsoring HR 4184 to repeal the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act. If Congress can act to remove social media's civil liability shield to protect children then they can act to remove the gun industry's civil liability shield as well. Thanks for fighting for this!
From a verified voter in Puyallup, WARight to integration documentation
Consumers have the right to use their purchased items how they please, this has been true for many industries for many years and it’s time we expand it. Much like car manufacturers have to publish manuals, smart home companies should have to publish their API specs. If companies start publishing the
From a verified voter in Vancouver, WAI am your constituent and I just learned that infant mortality is on the rise, significantly, because women in states where abortions are hard to get are forced to carry fetuses to term.

From a verified voter in Vancouver, WAYour responses show good intentions, but you consistently fall short of addressing the root causes behind the issues.

From a verified voter in Vancouver, WAYou position yourself as an “independent voice” for working families, but your record shows weak solutions and safe rhetoric.

From a verified voter in Seattle, WAEnd military support for Israel! No genocide in my name!
I stand with Jewish Voice for Peace in denouncing and calling for an end to US military support of Israel.

From a constituent in Auburn, WAWhat happened to my mail???
While the adage “Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night stays these couriers from the swift completion of their appointed rounds” is not the official motto of the USPS, our local folks could only hope that they could aspire to get a fraction of the way there... In late August, our communi
From a verified voter in Vancouver, WAYour support for Israel’s actions is not only rooted in flawed logic but reflects profound moral and ethical corruption.

From a constituent in Seattle, WAThe stalled Paycheck Fairness Act (S. 728 / H.R. 17) would address this injustice by closing loopholes in the Equal Pay Act. I can’t imagine that this will make it through Congress the session, but I want you to know that I support it.
