I support the efforts of Bellingham council members to get rid of junk fees for tenants. Costs to renters should be upfront and consistent, not hidden and piecemeal. These costs create added barriers to stable housing. bellinghamherald.com/news/politics-…

Mount Vernon has just opened its Library Commons project, boasting a massive children’s library, ample parking with EV chargers & a community kitchen. It’s being hailed as a “national model” for rural development and I’m proud to have supported it. cascadiadaily.com/2024/oct/01/mo…

Amazing turnout last weekend in Mount Vernon to get out the vote for Democrats and to stop the 4 statewide initiatives. Thanks to all the volunteers and organizers who helped make this happen!

It’s a privilege to be endorsed by, supported by, and to fight alongside the Whatcom Democrats and Skagit Democrats. Together we can advance policies that increase housing stability, improve education, protect the environment and defeat the MAGA-backed initiatives.

Among the many exciting features of Mount Vernon’s new Library Commons building is its public EV charging station—now one of the largest in the US. I agree with Senator Cantwell that transit-oriented projects like this create more livable communities. bellinghamherald.com/news/state/was…
