April 24, 2015
Good afternoon and thank you Steve for the introduction and being another great representative or Washington State, and the 1st district. I always say it’s the most beautiful district in the country, and occasionally rub people the wrong way and they want to argue with me that they are in the most beautiful district, but it is an incredibly beautiful district and one of the things that makes our region so beautiful is the incredible agricultural areas we have in western Washington. We also have a growing organic industry. According […]

Meeting with the New York Daily News Editorial Board - April 11, 2016
April 11, 2016
DAILY NEWS: Welcome. I really appreciate the opportunity to speak with you about the issues in this campaign. We will be making an endorsement. Let me start with the economy. You've made lifting the fortunes of the working and middle classes a centerpiece of your campaign. And you're well aware that in 2000, you pledged to create the conditions that would add 200,000 jobs upstate. You're also well aware that that didn't come true.

About Domestic Violence - Feb. 2, 2014
February 21, 2014
So you’ve heard it before, and you’ll hear it again but domestic violence is truly one of the most complicated and tragic kinds of violence and crime that we ever come across. By definition, the victim and the perpetrator know each other, usually they live together, and often they share the most important things in life together, a child, a home, an apartment, a bank account, a car. The same social set of friends. A mutually known circle of family. Often, the victim depends upon her attacker, and the attacker […]

U.S. House Victory Speech - Nov. 5, 2014
November 5, 2014
I was taught when I was growing up that you don’t complain. And if you’re upset about something, you do something about it. So for the last four years, every challenge that our nation has faced, I’ve been willing to offer solutions to some of the things our country is dealing with. And tonight, with the support of thousands of South Dakotans, I look forward to another two years working for you, in Washington D.C. to bring common sense to that crazy place. So first of all, I want to […]
