Here’s six moments you might have missed: * Fighting the Republican Tax Scam that Slashes Funding for Essential Programs: This week, I joined my Democratic colleagues in fighting back against the Republican-led Budget Reconciliation Bill — a proposal that would gut Medicaid, SNAP, and other vital programs our communities rely on. We testified in committee for over 27 hours to delay the vote and make our voices heard (Watch my remarks here). <https://iqconnect.house.gov/iqextranet/iqClickTrk.aspx?&cid=WA06ER&crop=14365.5429522.5139161.7318396&report_id=&redirect=https%3a%2f%2fyoutu.be%2f8VX7R_g6-Ys%3fsi%3d DOI9lI8pzPAwHIDM&redir_log=749097831435311> Let’s be clear: this proposal puts billionaires ahead of everyday Americans. Now, the bill heads to the Senate, and our fight continues. * Speaking Out on the House Floor to Protect Health Care Access: I took to the House floor to share stories from our neighbors whose lives will be directly impacted by these dangerous cuts. These stories are powerful reminders of what’s at stake. I will always show up, speak out, and fight for the people I represent.

This legislation will return sacred lands to the Tribe and help right historical wrongs.

Puget Sound Naval Shipyard, Naval Base Kitsap, and the Army Reserve in Tacoma are pillars of our community. I urged Chairman Rogers and Ranking Member Smith to prioritize robust authorization to the Defense Community Infrastructure Program to strengthen the infrastructure surrounding these essential facilities and support the service members and families who call our district home. * Introducing the ANCHOR Act to Support Military Families: This week, I teamed up with Rep. Rob Wittman to introduce the ANCHOR for Military Families Act — legislation that ensures service members and their families get the support and information they need well in advance of a relocation. From improved communication to better services, we’re working to ease the burden of PCS moves for those who serve.
