    Like Mr. Rogers said, always look for the helpers. Thank you, Ron, for stepping up and helping our first responders.

    resident Ron Sheckler was recognized for his assistance to our crews during the Ketron Island incident in August at last night's Board of Fire Commissioners meeting. His help was instrumental to a concise operation.

    How we respond to the disappearance of Jamal Khashoggi matters. What I want to see done: 1) Sec. Mnuchin must pull out of the Saudi investment conference 2) President must nominate an Ambassador to Saudi Arabia 3) Congress must not approve any more arms sales to the Saudis

    One reason I love living in the South Sound? We work to ensure EVERY voter can cast a ballot. This morning I joined leaders of the Nisqually Indian Tribe and Thurston County to open the first ballot drop box on the Nisqually reservation.

    Stormwater is the #1 source of pollution in Puget Sound. It hurts our orca, salmon & our economy. Today & I introduced the Preventing Pollution through Partnership Act which will help WA build more green infrastructure that catches the rain.

    Instead, the President has made attempts to sabotage and repeal the ACA. He talks a big game, but I’m not fooled, and neither are the American people
