Rain, shine, and new and returning Eagles at EWU Neighborfest, then a coalition canvass in Cheney with Karina Wallace, running for State Rep in the 9th LD. Students: register at VoteWA.gov through Oct. 26, or in person through Election Day.

Front page of the Seattle Times: "Democrats say U.S. House race is in play." Eastern Washington is now on the Districts in Play list. Volunteers and neighbors put this seat on the map. Let's finish the job: https://f.mtr.cool/pmw18br3od

This message is for Michael Baumgartner. We are fighting for this district, one constituent at a time. Victory is within reach.

The quarter closes at midnight – the last report before ballots go in the mail. Outside money is already spending for my opponent. I am counting on neighbors. Chip in before midnight: https://f.mtr.cool/tw9zw4knil

I've met Ms Conroy and think she is an impressive candidate. I know we desperately need more people in Congress like her; she has real experience in foreign policy and can help us rebuild our relationships with the world that Trump and Republicans have so gleefully destroyed.

Donald Trump just attacked me by name and endorsed Michael Baumgartner. Trump only shows up when his party is in trouble – so take it as a compliment, Eastern Washington! I have no dark money behind me. I have you. https://f.mtr.cool/9qqxdpi82o

National Security Leaders for America endorses @carmelaconroy509.bsky.social for WA05. They note her commitment to constitutional governance & the current officeholder’s absence of the same. Baumgartner favors political violence: nsl4a2026endorsements.substack.com/p/camela-con...

Yard signs are flying out the door and new canvassers are signing up. Two months from Election Day, this is what it looks like when a district decides it is not sitting this one out. Sign up for a sign or a shift: https://conroy4congress.com/volunteer

Moved out by the fires? Take two minutes to update your ballot mailing address at votewa.gov. Spokane County prints envelopes this month; online updates run through Oct. 26. Losing your house should not cost you your vote.

The writing is on the wall. Literally. #FlipWA05 Let's do this, Eastern Washington.

Delighted to speak with the Retired Public Employees Council of Washington at their lunch, at the Longhorn Barbecue my parents took me to before overseas assignments. RPEC members earned their pensions and health care serving Washington. I will defend both in Congress.

25 years ago, on a clear September morning, an otherwise ordinary day became one of history’s darkest. Through the darkness, we also saw the best of humanity.

9/11 victim Michael Massaroli’s son: "You do my dad's legacy & the legacy of all victims no honor using this tragedy to spread hate. I've had to spend 25 years seeing people use it to hate on our Muslim brothers & sisters, people who don't look like them."

End-of-month deadline is tonight at midnight. What people watch in our report is not the size of the checks – it is how many of us there are. No corporate PACs here, just Eastern Washington. $8 before midnight? secure.actblue.com/donate/cc-fr-2608?amount=8

Olivia Rodrigo raised $20 million for women's well-being with a benefit show featuring a women-led lineup. Her show raised $10 million and Melinda French Gates pledged another $10 million. Rodrigo said the festival's artists and activists give her hope despite the “regression of women's rights."

Honored to be endorsed by the Stevens County Democrats! Rural Eastern Washington deserves a representative who shows up and fights for lower costs, healthcare, and good jobs. Thank you for standing with us. #WA05 conroy4congress.com

EMILYs List knew Democratic women would be the key to building a path to the House majority and now we're expanding the battlefield into tougher territory. We're proud to stand with these Majority Makers in the fight to take back power.
