Rep. Kim Schrier, M.D.

On this day two years ago, Hamas launched a horrific, unprovoked attack on Israel, killing over 1,200 innocent people and kidnapping hundreds of hostages.

Today, we reaffirm our commitment to securing the release of hostages and putting an end to the violence.

I had the chance to speak with constituents who have reached out to my office to share how the government shutdown has affected them.

We are ready for Republicans to come to the table and end this shutdown.

Today, @repricklarsen.bsky.social and I visited TSA agents, air traffic controllers, and other local federal employees to hear how the government shutdown has impacted them and to thank them for their continued dedication to keeping #WA08 and all Americans safe!

I met with the Muckleshoot Tribal Council to hear about how the government shutdown is impacting tribal communities in Washington state. I will continue to fight for the services that they, and so many others, rely on in our district.

I visited the MultiCare Emergency Department in Bonney Lake this week to discuss the importance of extending critical healthcare tax credits and restoring Medicaid funding in the federal budget.

I will keep working to ensure everyone can access affordable healthcare.

Share your story! Are you a #WA08 constituent facing healthcare price hikes if Republicans fail to extend the premium tax credits in the budget?

I volunteered at the GoodRoots NW warehouse in Buckley yesterday to support their food distribution efforts, especially as furloughed federal employees continue to rely on their resources. Thank you for all you do for our communities!

Here is this week’s Schrier Flyer, with shutdown-related information.

A shutdown can also bring considerable uncertainty, so please visit this link to help explain what it means and how it may impact your daily life. More here: schrier.house.gov/resources/wh...

Even though we are in a shutdown, my offices are still open and ready to serve you. If you have any questions, you can still call my offices in DC, Issaquah, or Wenatchee.

I stand ready and urge my Republican colleagues to come to the table to achieve a bipartisan compromise that helps people afford and access healthcare, lowers costs, and funds essential government programs.

Read my full statement here:

I know that a prolonged shutdown hurts all of us, especially working families, seniors, and our brave service members here in #WA08.

Today I had a great meeting with David and Stone to talk about their initiative, Communicators for Communication, and discuss the importance of advocating for communication rights and resources for nonspeakers.

I recently met with the Respiratory Care Society of Washington to discuss the importance of improving access to oxygen therapy for Medicare beneficiaries.

Amid Republican-led attacks on these crucial benefits, I will work to protect comprehensive care for Medicare and Medicaid recipients.

RFK Jr. and Donald Trump’s baseless comments last week linking Tylenol use to higher rates of autism are dangerous.

That is why I led my Democratic Doctors Caucus colleagues in writing a letter demanding immediate oversight and an investigation into this matter.

I had the honor of presenting Alvin Hall, a Vietnam Veteran from Covington, with a pin to recognize and thank him for his service.

If you or someone you know is a Vietnam Veteran who would like to receive a commemorative pin thanking them for their service, contact my office.

That is why I am proud to introduce the Efficient Nuclear Licensing Hearings Act, alongside @repmarcveasey.bsky.social and Rep. Morgan Griffith, to reform federal nuclear licensing processes and lower energy prices.

Non-greenhouse gas-emitting nuclear power plays an essential role in lowering energy costs and meeting demands for my constituents and all Americans.

My heart breaks for the LDS faith community in the wake of this weekend’s events. I strongly condemn the tragic shooting in Michigan. I also extend my deepest condolences to the LDS faith community as they mourn the passing of their church president, Dr. Russell Nelson.

If Republicans let healthcare tax credits expire, an estimated 80,000 Washingtonians will lose their health insurance, and many more will see prices soar.

Share your story about how these price hikes will impact you and your family here: schrier.house.gov/countdown-hu...

Extreme rhetoric and political violence have no place in our country.

I strongly condemn the call for violence against my colleague, @jayapal.house.gov.
