Transparency is one of the best ways for us to address what’s driving the cost of health care in America. People in Eastern Washington deserve to have detailed cost information and I applaud President Trump for moving in that direction.

Great to see everyone at Skyfest 2019 this weekend! Beautiful day to celebrate Fairchild Air Force Base and all who serve and have served in our military and their families.

Due to the loss of potential tax revenues on federal lands in affected areas, PILT funds from the Department of Interior help rural counties, who are already faced with financial uncertainty, keep their doors open.

It was amazing to meet you, Trevor. You deserve it! Thanks for making Eastern Washington proud.

The Next Generation of 911 is here and Washington is helping lead the way. A coalition of law enforcement and first responders talked to me recently about the revolutionary new system they are developing to respond to the worst of situations.
