@repdelbene.bsky.socialTrump keeps using gimmicks to distract Americans from the cost-of-living crisis he created.
His latest plot to send seniors $90 checks doesn’t even come close to covering how much more they’re paying in Medicare premiums since he took office.

@repdelbene.bsky.socialTariffs are taxes on the American people & a new report confirms the obvious: Trump’s tariffs are responsible for inflation & making everything more expensive.
In fact, prices could have actually decreased if not for Trump’s tariffs
@repdelbene.bsky.socialCalling all students! Are you thinking about a future at one of our nation's military service academies? My office is hosting a virtual Service Academy Info Day tomorrow, Oct. 10 at 1PM. This event is open to high school students & parents. To rsvp, contact [email protected].
@repdelbene.bsky.socialWashingtonians can’t keep suffering the consequences of the president’s failures. It’s time for this war to end.
@repdelbene.bsky.socialTrump’s reckless war with Iran has sent diesel prices soaring to over $7 per gallon in WA.
This is an immense burden on farmers & small businesses in our community, forcing them to pay extra & raise prices for customers.
@repdelbene.bsky.socialOver Labor Day weekend, ICE detained five family members camping in the Mount Baker-Snoqualmie Forest area. I’m demanding transparency into USFS’s potential coordination with ICE to make these arrests & possible misuse of taxpayer funds during wildfire season.
@repdelbene.bsky.socialThis will inject even more uncertainty into our already turbulent economy while hamstringing innovation, competitiveness, and ultimately American workers.
@repdelbene.bsky.socialLet’s be clear: this move will have no impact on purported H-1B visa abuse. It simply undercuts a legal way for people to work, stay with their family, and become a part of our communities.
@repdelbene.bsky.socialThe Trump administration’s action today is an attack on current H-1B visa holders already in the United States. Haphazardly taking away the pathway to a lawful green card for skilled workers at certain American companies is a biased and punitive misuse of the law.
@repdelbene.bsky.socialAlonzo relies on his Apple Health coverage for physical therapy. But looming cuts to Medicaid from Republicans’ Big Ugly Bill are set to jeopardize his & his family’s care because of needless paperwork requirements.
@repdelbene.bsky.socialI’m moving to force the release of information about this program so we can finally get the whole story.
@repdelbene.bsky.socialSince Trump’s AI Medicare experiment began, it has led to needless delays & denials in care for Washington seniors.
New documents reveal the administration wants to apply it to cancer treatments & air ambulances next – things that cannot wait days for answers.

@repdelbene.bsky.socialIt’s clear the administration is more focused on handing your tax dollars to their political allies than lowering your costs.
@repdelbene.bsky.socialThe Trump administration’s corruption is costing you.
On her way out the door, disgraced former Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem approved a sweetheart government contract for top political donors. Millions of your tax dollars went to pay for luxury jets.
@repdelbene.bsky.socialRepublican Medicaid cuts are set to rip away care from the most vulnerable. I toured Compass Health Marc Healing Center, a mental & behavioral health crisis center in Everett, & spoke with the team about how these cuts will impact patients. Thank you for everything you do for our community!
@repdelbene.bsky.socialElection Day is around the corner! To make sure you have the information you need to vote, check out my new election resources page for Washington voters.
@repdelbene.bsky.socialIt’s appalling for the President of the United States to call on a foreign power to take out an American city. Trump started this war & has no idea how to end it. It’s past time for Republicans in Congress to take a stand & put a stop to this conflict.
@repdelbene.bsky.socialThis weekend my office hosted our annual App-A-Thon at UW Bothell to prepare students entering the Congressional App Challenge. As a lifelong tech geek, I love seeing what they come up with!
@repdelbene.bsky.socialHigh costs from Trump’s war with Iran are not going away anytime soon & will only get worse.
As WA families prepare for colder weather, they’ll have to pay more for gas & home heating.
@repdelbene.bsky.socialOctober is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Let’s continue to promote early screening & education to save lives & support those battling the disease.
