Results for Eastern Washington
Hello,
My focus is, and always has been, on getting results for you and your families in Eastern Washington. This Congress, I’ve worked to pass 10 bills in the House, and 6 of these bipartisan bills have been signed into law.
Because of my 6 bills that are now law:
- People with ALS and other degenerative diseases have permanent access to speech-generating devices under Medicare.
- People living with disabilities can now explore the workforce and save more of what they earn in ABLE Accounts.
- Parents can now rollover 529 account funds for their children into ABLE accounts.
- The Teaching Health Center Graduate Medical Education Program is extended and funding is more than doubled. This will help us bring more doctors to rural areas, where we face a shortage.
- The Secure Rural Schools Program is extended to provide affected counties with essential services, funding for public education, and infrastructure maintenance.
- More jobs and economic development are coming to Whitman County.
In addition, I helped secure 12 additional tankers and the largest pay raise in nearly a decade for our troops serving at Fairchild. I have also worked to make college more affordable for our children, led to protect our dams, invested in our communities’ infrastructure — including our airports in Spokane, Pullman, and Walla Walla — and more.

Thanks,
