Washingtonians are paying $948 MORE this year because of the Trump Administration’s chaotic economic policies.

I’ve been calling on President Trump to reverse these reckless tariffs and policies that are hurting local economies across Washington.

RFK Jr.’s decision to change the CDC website with his fringe, debunked belief that vaccines cause autism is a threat to our public health.

He’s scaring parents, undermining trust in the CDC, and putting children at risk.

I had a great meeting this week with Public Power Council to discuss how to supply low-cost energy for constituents in #WA08.

RFK Jr. just changed the CDC website with his fictional anti-vax talking points — promoting the blatantly false claim that vaccines cause autism.

This is dangerous.

Parents, please trust your pediatricians, not RFK Jr., about getting your children vaccinated.
