On Tuesday, President Trump delivered his State of the Union address. He predictably touted that everything was great regarding affordability and our economy, but we know prices are too high.

Prices are soaring and hurting family budgets across the region.

Last year, the Trump administration returned to office and immediately set its agenda with the Republican Rip-Off. This past year has been a test of our democracy and our strength to stand up for our Northwest Washington values.

The Republican Rip-Off attacked access to affordable health care, clawed back SNAP benefits, and gutted critical services and programs.

Last week, the Trump administration repealed the Endangerment Finding, which is the scientific determination that gives the United States government the authority to combat climate change.

Protecting Washington's environment is a top priority of mine. The Trump administration's decision to ignore established science about climate change is reckless, stupid, and dangerous.
