Thank you. Thank you, Washington voters. Thank you all so much. It is a great honor to represent the state of Washington in the United States Senate. And it is a great honor to take the values of people in this state, to get things done, to work across the aisle, to protect a woman’s right to choose, to protect our environment, to grow economic opportunity, to lower cost and increase wages, and I guarantee you this campaign was about growing the middle class in the United States of America, led by our state that has had some the highest wage growth in the country. Now, we’re going to go back there and work across the aisle to get more done, to show the rest of the country that we can make progress.

I want to thank my campaign staff, my campaign manager, Griffin Clay, Macy Duff, Jill McNerney. I wouldn’t have been do it without them. I want to thank my family and friends behind me, who supported this effort all the way, to make a point, loud and clear, that these values are worth fighting for, and that the success of our state can be contributing to the rest of the nation. I also want to thank all the people who worked on this campaign across the state. From Spokane to Vancouver, to Bellingham, down to Cowlitz County.

We have worked so hard to make this the message of opportunity and to elect President Harris so she too can grow the middle class in the United States of America. Thank you all very much. Thank you, Washington voters. I promise to keep fighting for us and to keep working across the aisle to accomplish what our nation needs. Thank you all very much.
