Whether through uprising, escape, or tipping the scales towards a Union victory by serving as guides, spies, laborers, etc in the Civil War, we honor them today!
So much fun celebrating @NicoleDGomez36 ‘s early birthday with bowling and then roller skating for the first time in nearly 30 years! Some muscles are gonna be a little sore tomorrow, but I didn’t fall, so gonna call that a win! 😂
Not gonna lie, sometimes the winters in the PNW are hard to get through. But, I am constantly blown away by the beauty of this incredible state, and by the biodiversity and majesty it offers our souls! #summer has arrived, and I am in awe as always! #grateful#pnw#olympia

Proponents of this tax cut for the rich couldn't get any traction because Washingtonians support the wealthy paying their fair share, especially for our kids' education. They were going to lose - and they know it - because the PEOPLE are on our side! #taxjustice#waleg#waelex
Thank you for your support, and while the decision has been made to resign from the race I will continue to fight alongside all of you to build the world we know is possible!
So grateful and excited to have the incredible @RepJesseJohnson and @NoelFrame speaking at my #campaignkickoff on the 16th! I am truly humbled and inspired by your support!
