Make your voice count

Tomorrow is Election Day. It is the day we as Americans make our voices heard, take part in our democracy, and exercise our fundamental right to vote.

In this election, we're not just casting a vote against the hate and division from this administration. We're using our vote to build a better future for all Americans.

In District 2, that means bringing middle-class families better jobs and higher wages, and giving people the tools they need to succeed in the 21st century – by investing in our transportation infrastructure, expanding access to STEM education and skills training, and ensuring the next generation of workers has the tools they need to compete in a global marketplace.

But we can't invest in our future without addressing the challenges Washingtonians face every day. That means protecting access to affordable health care, fighting the opioid epidemic, and keeping this administration accountable for undermining our investments in Social Security and Medicare.

I hope you will join me tomorrow night at the Whatcom Democrats' Election Night Party to support Democratic candidates that are committed to building a better future for Northwest Washington.

That future is built on votes. Make sure you turn in your ballot by 8 p.m. tomorrow to be counted. Find your nearest drop box here.

Your vote. Your voice.
