My heart goes out to Garfield High School’s students, families, and faculty as a student’s life was cut short by gun violence yesterday. On #GunViolenceAwarenessDay , this is another tragic reminder of how much more work we must do to make our communities safer.

The Griswold v. Connecticut decision 59 years ago today was such an important moment for the history of women. We need to protect contraception access.

In King County, we lost over 1,000 people last year from opioid overdoses. So we must try to expand these hubs in Washington state and nationwide as quickly as possible.

Yesterday, some of our colleagues voted to block the Right to Contraception Act. Since the Dobbs decision, we’ve seen a chilling effect on our health care delivery system, and as states refuse to stand up and protect contraception, we're not sure how far they're going to go.

80 years ago today, U.S. and allied troops undertook the largest amphibious invasion in history, storming the beaches of Normandy to restore democracy to Europe. We can never forget their bravery and sacrifice to protect the future of the free world.

During #PrideMonth , we come together to celebrate our LGBTQ+ community. We also recommit to ending discrimination and prejudice so full equality can be reached. I’m proud to stand with the community as we continue to fight for legislation that will protect LGBTQ+ rights.

Freedom is only possible because of the heroes -- some from our own communities, from our own families. Each year, we pledge to remember them, to remember their lives, those sacrifices, and for what they fought. We as a nation are forever grateful.
