Make sure your ballot is received for this November’s election by returning it at a secure drop box and not handing it over to someone offering to “turn it in.”

Track your ballot or find a secure drop box near you:

It is disgusting that Republicans CHOSE to let SNAP benefits run out today—letting millions of kids and families go hungry for political leverage.  The courts have made it clear that USDA must fund SNAP for November.

As of this morning, *1,608,769* Washingtonians are registered for tomorrow's #ShakeOut Drill!

Our goal this year is 1,752,263.

So please, if you haven't registered, please do, and also ask 143,493 of your closest friends to do the same.

We believe in you.

Thanks in advance!

Announcing the Governors Public Health Alliance.

We can no longer rely on what's coming out of Washington, D.C., but our states are coming together to unequivocally state that science still matters.

We will work together to safeguard public health and strengthen preparedness.
Fifteen Democratic governors formed a public health alliance to counter federal agency turmoil under the Trump administration. The alliance aims to monitor disease outbreaks, establish policy guidance and buy vaccines.

House Republicans are responsible for:

- The largest cut to Medicaid in American history
- An unprecedented health care crisis
- An ongoing government shutdown

It’s time they get serious about fixing the mess they’ve made.

Compromise is a very basic principle every American understands.

If Republicans “don’t bother” working with Democrats just because Trump said so, it will be a REPUBLICAN SHUTDOWN.

Republicans control the House, Senate, & White House—the American people will know who to blame.

The wannabe king is now directing his regime to prosecute his political opponents.

Trump thinks his rule is absolute. But in America, we have NO KINGS and we won’t back down to chaos, cruelty, and corruption. Join us for the next nationwide day of defiance: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i... #NoKings

Not a word of criticism in here of any federal policies.

And no mention of tariffs.

Because the author is for Trump.

Canadian visits to Washington are plummeting, down by nearly 40% in August alone, hurting local tourism and businesses.
Trump's reckless tariffs and immigration policies are driving away visitors that our economy depends on.

Health care costs are set to increase: higher premiums, ACA subsidies expiring, and Trump’s reckless tariffs driving up prescription drug costs. Millions are at risk of losing coverage and paying more.
While Republicans turn their backs, Democrats are fighting to keep health care affordable.
Why your health insurance may soon cost a lot more
Health insurance costs in the United States are on track for their biggest jump in at least five years.

The Trump EPA wants to let polluters hide their emissions, gutting greenhouse gas reporting after 15 years of transparency. The Trump admin. continues to dodge accountability while selling out communities to big corporate polluters.
