Trust in congress is at an all time low, and it’s no secret why: This is becoming a body where unelected staff are running the show. People are tired of seeing their representatives freeze up on camera or miss votes because they’re sundowning.

I would like to thank my colleagues for joining me last night in a moment of silence to honor the men who lost their lives at the Nippon Dynawave Packaging mill.

Yesterday, I sent a letter to executives at Nippon Dynawave Packaging asking them to clarify their commitment to pay workers during the investigation. These are our friends, our neighbors, our families, and we need to make sure they’re being taken care of. Read the letter below.

If you’re not from a trades family or a mill community, it can be hard to understand how devastating this sort of industrial catastrophe is for a mill town like Longview.

Ryderwood loses power at least once a winter and it’s dangerous for members of this 55+ community to go without electricity for an extended period of time. I'm excited that I was able to secure funding for Cowlitz PUD to underground power lines to improve reliability and save money for ratepayers.

It’s easy to forget painful things, to make them small or frivolous- but in choosing to come together and remember the sacrifice of fallen soldiers and their families we shore up what makes our country strong. Thanks to everyone who came out and most of all thanks to our fallen and their loved ones.

Given that Red Delicious are the worst apples, have you ever wondered why they’re in every school cafeteria? It’s because there’s a list of "approved" apple varieties allowed in schools, and it hasn’t changed since Kmart sold firearms.

There's demand everywhere for quality water system workers. We need robust programs to get young people into the sector. Great careers for an essential utility!

Specialists will be on-site in Packwood, starting tomorrow May 14th, to help with FEMA applications and to address questions about federal and state assistance. FEMA can help pay for temporary housing, displacement, home repair costs, personal property loss and other disaster-caused expenses.

It takes a lot of skill, intelligence, and grit to be a lineman. Thank you to the Northwest Line Joint Apprenticeship Training Committee for letting me hang out and see how you train the next generation of lineman.

Vote-by-mail is the gold standard for election security and access to representation. Protecting mail-in voting options ensures that all Americans, whether they do shift work, are in the trades, take care of young kids, or live in rural areas, have their ballots counted. tinyurl.com/yckce2xy

It was an honor to speak to the members of the AFRC to recognize the importance of their legacy and dedication to our community. I’ve been so thankful to the timber companies and saw mills in Southwest Washington that have opened their doors to me so I can bring that knowledge with me to DC.

We need to look at all different solutions to help folks keep a roof over their heads. I had the opportunity to meet with the @cityofvancouver.bsky.social and folks who rely on the Safe RV Park Program to understand what’s working and what’s not.

Between the cost of lawsuits and a constrained state budget, hatcheries are facing closure. The recreational and subsistence fishing that comes from Steelhead is vital to our community. They cannot become an extinct species.

As foreign investors buy up more of our forest land, our community continues to be boxed out of the woods we had access to for generations. Right now, a German royal family controls 7.3% of the land in Wahkiakum County. I am urging two German Princes to reopen regulated hunting access on this land.

Surveillance pricing means big corporations buy up your location and income data and know exactly how likely you are to drive to a cheaper store when you’re desperate for kids cough syrup at 2am and they charge you as much money as they can wring out of you. I’m fighting to stop these practices.

Right now, only one VA facility nationwide allows veterans who live in their vehicles or RVs the option of secure overnight parking at the VA facility - which provides vets with an option of not driving home that same day.

The last thing veterans need after serving their country is to be forced into one-size-fits all housing solutions when they’re trying to build their own home or site their RV. My amendment asks @deptvetaffairs.bsky.social to allow vets to use VA home loans for land to park their mobile home or RV

WA state regs make it illegal for some daycare teachers to peel a banana - but opening a bag of Cheetos is just fine. Sadly, many states in the country treat serving fruits and vegetables in the same bureaucratic class as making sushi - and the result is more processed food for toddlers.

Having self determination and being a people who make things - not just consumers - is what makes us Americans. I’m always inspired by the next generation of the trades workforce as they continue this tradition. #vancouverpublicschools #trades

My friends from the City of Washougal. We share the same priorities in getting the 32nd St Rail Crossing project across the finish line and had a great talk about building water system upgrades and ensuring our water utilities and ratepayers don’t have to bear the brunt of PFAS cleanup costs.

They are the people we want in the water during an emergency and I came away reminded again how fortunate we are to have brave, competent people like this looking out for us.

Many Americans believe Jesus calls us to bear one another’s burdens — Chaplains like Mark take that real seriously. They volunteer their time to make sure our neighbors are spared from facing some of the worst news of their lives alone.

Our fishermen in Southwest Washington have spoken loud and clear—sea lions in the Columbia River are decimating our salmon and steelhead runs.

My provision to bring down costs for mobile home residents is now law! We know that low-cost solutions like mobile home skirting can be a powerful tool to bring energy costs down. Energy policy shouldn't just be focused on people who can afford to spend big on a heat pump or new EV.

I recently sat down with the Elder Justice Center and Children’s Justice Center in Clark County. These exemplary public servants see the worst of humanity and show up every day to fight for our community.

I brought home funding for a new training center in Lewis County. By keeping these trainings close to home, we can support first responders, save money that would otherwise be spent on out-of-area training, and build collaboration between local first responders.

People talk a lot about draining the swamp—but has anyone considered planting a million willow whips in it and reestablishing it as lamprey habitat? Spent my morning with the Lower Columbia Estuary Partnership at the East Fork Lewis River. Happy MLK Day everyone!

A metric shit ton of small business owners in SW Washington (myself included) have wasted precious time and bile figuring out if a scary letter is from a legit government agency or a weasel dick scammer with letterhead.

I’m calling on the Coast Guard to approve a cost-effective fixed-span replacement of the I-5 Bridge. It would be shortsighted to sacrifice our industrial economy suspending a fiction of a limitless military budget.

Sea lions aren’t falling for our tricks. We need to stop overthinking things and engage with these pinnipeds as an urgent threat to our salmon runs and the fishermen that depend on them.
