In my family, Halloween has always been all about the children. When my kids were younger, we would take them trick-or-treating – even in the rain – to see neighbors and friends. Now I look forward to seeing what superheroes are making a comeback as the next generation of children make their way around the neighborhood.
Seeing all these children also reminds me why I first ran for office and why I work so hard in Congress for a better future:
A better future means affordable early childhood education, a system of k-12 public education in which every one of these sweet faces gets a well-rounded education in small classes, and affordable college or trade options.
A better future means taking bold action on climate because all children deserve to grow up in a habitable world, here in the beautiful Pacific Northwest and around the globe.
A better future means reproductive freedom – because everyone should grow up with the right to control their own bodies.
And importantly, a better future means protecting democracy – because our children deserve a country where every voice is heard and everyone matters.
That's why I'm in Congress and why I'm running for reelection. Will you join our movement for the next generation of Americans and give $3 today?
Thank you for standing with me for a better future, and a Happy Halloween to all!
