I remain heartbroken that the crew of Zeus 95, including Captain Savino of Covington, died last spring in flight operations over Iraq. I introduced legislation today, alongside @PattyMurray and @SenatorCantwell, to establish a monument at Arlington National Cemetery for the fallen crewmembers.
I will continue my efforts to honor Captain Savino’s bravery, leadership, and sacrifice – which will forever be remembered by the people of Washington state and all Americans.

Another great @CWSoftballGame yesterday between Team Congress and the #BadNewsBabes! We will be back next year, team press!
Thank you, Dr. Nayak, for highlighting how my bill, the Patients First Act, will keep small physician practices open and help patients afford and access care in Central Washington.
It is more important than ever that we expand access to care for our rural communities. Thank you for your advocacy on behalf of all Washingtonians!

I look forward to continuing the amazing work of my friend @RepDianaDeGette, who has been a champion of bolstering research, lowering costs, and improving care for Americans.

This is another outrageous attack on the Endangered Species Act. We should work together to maintain protections for these species, not put them at greater risk of extinction.

I had a great conversation with @The_NHHF leaders last week to talk about healthcare equity and access. Thank you to the group who stopped by!
G’mar Chatima Tovah from my family to yours! Wishing those celebrating in #WA08 a sacred day of reflection and renewal.
Today we celebrate #NationalAppChallengeDay! I encourage all young coders in #WA08 to submit their original apps by October 26th for a chance to have them featured in the U.S. Capitol.

Thank you to the @VFWHQ advocates who stopped by to talk about how to uplift Veterans in Washington state and increase access to healthcare and mental health services for them and their families!
Here is this week’s Schrier Flyer!
A recap of my week here in DC!
We are in a primary care crisis. If we don’t act now to save small physician practices, stand up to corporate entities, and fight for patient care – access is going to get worse for all Americans.
I am proud that my bipartisan Patients First Act will address commonsense healthcare solutions to stand up for independent practices and invest in primary care.
I had a heartfelt meeting with Ukrainian constituents today and reaffirmed my steadfast support for Ukraine amid dangerous Russian aggression. Make no mistake, my stance has not changed on this important issue.
The Lindsey O. Graham Sanctioning Russia and Iran Act we voted on today is riddled with loopholes, and we have seen time and time again that Trump is unwilling to take a stand against Russia.
He has a long track record of siding with Putin in this conflict, and I have no reason to believe he will change that now. He will use loopholes to both avoid sanctions and to abuse the tariff powers granted to him in this bill.
Ceding tariff authority to the executive branch also sets a dangerous precedent, particularly with a president with a track record of usurping Congress’ authority. That is exactly why I voted against this legislation.
Speaker Johnson: Do NOT send the House home until AI guardrails are immediately addressed.
Americans expect Congress to take action on this existential threat now, and my colleagues and I are ready to stay to get the job done.
This is a huge win for Washingtonians and all Americans.
Washington’s mail-in voting system is safe, secure, and is especially important to my rural constituents who live far away from in-person voting options.
The ability to participate freely and fairly in elections is central to who we are as Americans, and the Trump Administration will not take that away.

The cost of everything from gas to groceries to healthcare is way too high, and President Trump and Congressional Republicans are doing nothing to help Americans afford everyday life.
Instead of trying to lower prices, President Trump is focused on his vanity projects, escalating a war in Iran, and ripping away healthcare for millions through the Big Ugly Bill.
You deserve better. I'll keep fighting to lower costs for you.
I recently met with Sammamish Police Chief Meyer for a public safety update and to discuss how to keep supporting our communities.
Another highlight was saying hi to police dog Falco!
Mayor McHenry and I stopped by the Duvall Farmers Market this week to pick up fresh produce and chat with local growers. Thank you for having us!
Thank you, Snohomish County Fire District 5, for meeting with me this week to chat about wildfire operations and emergency response in the area.
Thanks for keeping us all safe during a dangerous wildfire season. (And thank you too, Smokey!)
From my family to yours, Shanah Tovah to everyone in #WA08 celebrating Rosh Hashanah!
May the New Year bring you and your loved ones peace, health, reflection, and renewal.
