Elon Musk and Donald Trump are taking your Social Security to pay for billionaire tax cuts. From dismantling the Seattle office to laying off 7,000 federal workers, seniors are facing higher wait times and an increased backlog, making access to their benefits even harder. I’m

As a lifelong baseball fan, it’s important to celebrate all the greats. Today, we honor one of the most prolific players in the game, Jackie Robinson. Jackie broke down racial barriers in 1947 when the then-28-year-old became the first African American player in the MLB. Thank

My heart goes out to the Florida State University campus and all those in Tallahassee. No one should fear going to school and absolutely no one should be killed at the hands of gun violence. We need everyone in Congress, Republicans too, to come together and stop mass shootings

My thoughts and prayers are with the loved ones of State Senator Bill Ramos, who passed away yesterday. Especially his wife King County Councilwoman Sarah Perry. Bill was a dedicated public servant who did so much to make our community a better place to live for all of us. He was
