Open Enrollment for Washington’s health insurance marketplace is now available for 2026.

Check your rates at: www.wahealthplanfinder.org

It is clear that the time for Congress to act is now! We must work together to extend vital tax credits that bring down the costs of your health insurance.

President Trump is continuing to play politics with food assistance funding. This is illegal, cruel, and must end immediately.
November 5, 2025 at 7:17 PM
With open enrollment beginning, folks across #WA08 are getting sticker shock from the high price of their premiums. Katja, a small business owner from Issaquah, reached out to let us know that her family’s healthcare premiums for 2026 will nearly DOUBLE.

I recently met with leaders from Lake Chelan Health to talk about the impact of Medicaid cuts on our communities, and how the expiration of critical ACA tax credits will harm working families here in #WA08.

This weekend, millions of children, families, seniors, and Veterans started going without food assistance because Donald Trump and Republicans continue to hold SNAP funding hostage—despite having contingency funds ready and available.

Nearly 42 million Americans lose their food stamp benefits
The lapse in benefits could be temporary if the Trump administration complies with a recent court order requiring them to use emergency money to fund SNAP.
