Get StartedI believe access to reproductive health care is not a privilege. It's a basic part of comprehensive medical care. That means fighting to preserve and expand access to contraception, protecting our clinics and the providers who serve our communities, and ensuring that cost is never the barrier that stands between a patient and the care they need. Learn more
In the State House, I will fight for real affordability solutions that reflect the full picture of what families need to thrive. I will support legislation to expand the Working Families Tax Credit and ensure more households across our district can access it. I'll push to strengthen consumer protections against price gouging and advocate for state investments that bring down the cost of healthcare and prescription drugs for everyday Washingtonians. Fixing our tax structure is not just about fairness. It is about unlocking the revenue we need to make all of these investments possible. Learn more
I believe preventative action is necessary to provide our children with a bright and healthy future. This means investments in sustainable infrastructure that creates green union jobs, immediate action that reduces carbon emissions and water waste, and protecting the natural spaces across District 29, and creating more of them.

Every community deserves to feel safe. To make this a reality, addressing youth gun violence must also be a top priority. Programs like gun buybacks, lockbox distribution, and community-led initiatives are essential for keeping firearms off our streets and reducing harm. Learn more
In the State House, I will fight to expand state funding for affordable housing construction and preservation, strengthen tenant protections, and increase resources for shelter capacity and transitional housing programs that help residents stabilize their lives. I'll work to reform the Growth Management Act to remove barriers to mixed-use and middle-density development, empowering communities like ours to build more housing without sacrificing neighborhood character. Learn more
I also support expanding state-backed homeownership programs, down payment assistance, and foreclosure prevention resources so that families in the 29th can put down roots and weather economic hardship without losing everything. Housing stability isn't just a local issue. It requires state investment and the political will to take on the systems that keep housing out of reach. Learn more
A well connected community is a healthier community. District 29 has challenges with transit access to health and government services that improve quality of life. As your Representative, I promise to prioritize making public transit accessible and reliable in all communities across our district. Learn more
I will champion continued investment in Washington's Working Connections Child Care program and push to expand eligibility so more families in the 29th can access subsidized care without falling through the cracks. I'll advocate for increased compensation for childcare workers, because we cannot build a stable system on poverty wages. I also support expanding funding for early learning programs and after-school care so that parents across the 29th district can work with confidence knowing their children are safe and supported. Learn more
In Olympia, I will champion funding for the wraparound services that address the root causes of homelessness: mental health care, substance use treatment, and job training. I'll build partnerships between state agencies and the local organizations already doing this work on the ground in my district. Everyone in the 29th deserves a safe, stable place to call home, and I'll bring that fight to the State House. Learn more
Pension security is a promise that must be kept. Public employees, tradespeople, and workers across our district have spent careers earning their retirement, and I will fight to protect and strengthen pension programs rather than balance budgets on the backs of the people who built our communities. Decades of service deserve to be honored. Learn more
Safe working conditions are non-negotiable. I will support stronger enforcement of workplace safety standards and advocate for increased resources for Washington's Department of Labor and Industries so that every worker in our district has someone in their corner. No one should have to choose between their safety and their paycheck. Learn more
Collective bargaining is one of the most powerful tools workers have, and I will fight any attempt to weaken it. I support strengthening protections so that union members can negotiate fair wages and benefits without intimidation or retaliation, and I'll push to close loopholes that allow employers to misclassify workers and strip them of the protections they've earned. Learn more
In the State House, I will be an unapologetic advocate for workers' rights across three pillars: collective bargaining, safe working conditions, and retirement security. Learn more
