Rep. Kim Schrier, M.D.

I recently spoke at the Alliance of Specialty Medicine’s Advocacy Conference to talk with physicians about how Republican cuts to healthcare will harm hospitals, patients, and doctors. I will continue to fight to protect healthcare access for my constituents and everyday…

The Republican budget will decimate our healthcare system here in Washington. Hundreds of thousands of Washingtonians will lose their health care, and rural hospitals will be forced to close down – all just to give billionaires a big tax cut. kuow.org/stories/trump-…

Physician researchers play a key role in improving patient care and outcomes. To support their work and strengthen medical research, I introduced the bipartisan Access to Claims Data Act, which will provide physician researchers with the data that they need.…

Early detection and treatment help kids live safe, healthy lives. That is why I am proud to co-lead the Newborn Screening Saves Lives Reauthorization Act that ensures rare diseases are identified and treated at birth.

I had a fantastic time meeting with Washington’s @NationalFFA State Officers this week to talk about their future goals in the agriculture industry and how we can continue to work to support farmers across our district. What a fantastic group of students!

Trump’s EPA just fired hundreds of scientists - the ones who make sure our water is safe to drink and our air is safe to breathe, and who study the impacts of wildfire smoke and PFAS on our health. This is another pro-billionaire, anti-us move by the Trump Administration. Does…

Great to meet with NFL player @THE_CONDA25 this week to talk about his experience as a malaria survivor and about the importance of protecting lifesaving vaccines. I am truly inspired by Calvin’s work and look forward to working together to advocate for vaccine access!

Here is this week's Schrier Flyer!

The Trump Administration's push to cut low-income housing programs would be devastating for Washington. Havalah from Woodinville relies on a HUD program to live in her apartment while working to support her and her son and make ends meet. She, like so many others, is now…

My statement on the House passage of President Trump’s request to cancel $9 billion in congressionally appropriated funding for public broadcasting and essential foreign assistance, including global health and food programs.

It was great to meet with the @Covington_Water District Commissioners this week to discuss how to protect access to a reliable water supply for our communities and restore crucial funding for much-needed updates to the Howard Hanson Dam.

Public broadcasting keeps folks across Washington—especially in rural communities like the ones I represent—informed about emergencies, local news, and what’s happening across the world. Now more than ever, people need access to unbiased sources of news and information. I will…

Big win for team Congress at this year’s @CWSoftballGame! Proud to have joined my colleagues and members of the press to raise money for @YSCBuzz, a non-profit that supports young adults impacted by breast cancer. Better luck next year, #BadNewsBabes!

I have heard from thousands of folks across #WA08 who are worried about what the recent passage of Republicans' Big Ugly Bill will mean for their access to healthcare, food assistance, and other critical programs. Here are just a handful. I will keep fighting to protect…

GREAT NEWS: My bipartisan bill to improve efficiency and transparency in the hydropower relicensing process passed the House this week! As energy demand continue to goes through the roof, the bill will help us meet the moment by streamlining this process.

Looking forward to discussing these key issues impacting the Eighth District. Be sure to tune in tomorrow morning!

Republicans’ megabill will kick people off health care & raise costs for working families.    @RepKimSchrier & I discussed how these cuts will put patients at risk & drive up premiums.

I was grateful to recently meet with my partners at @KCPubHealth and hear about the impactful work they are doing in our community.

Thank you to everyone who joined yesterday's town hall in Sammamish to discuss the Big Ugly Bill and what its passage means for #WA08. I will keep fighting to reverse the cuts and protect hardworking families across our state.

When I met with @FoodLifeline earlier this week, I talked with staff about how Republicans' devastating cuts to SNAP will directly harm families in Washington. My constituents, like all Americans, deserve access to essential food and nutritional programs that keep our…
