Washington families shouldn't have to pay the price for federal chaos. Right now, decisions coming out of Washington, D.C. threaten healthcare access, drive up the cost of everyday goods, and put retirement savings at risk. Working families are the ones left holding the bag.

State government is our first line of defense. While D.C. creates uncertainty, Olympia can act by shielding our communities from harmful cuts, keeping costs down, and making sure the programs families depend on remain intact.

As your state Senator, I'll fight to protect healthcare access, defend working families from rising costs, and hold our state government accountable to the people it serves, not special interests. Washington has always been a place where hard work leads to opportunity. I intend to keep it that way.

No matter what Washington, D.C. throws at us, I'll make sure our state remains a place where every family can feel secure and every community can move forward.
