Kim Schrier

Defense / Veterans

I will work to ensure our border is secure and protected. Learn more

Economy

I will work to secure clean energy to create jobs and cut costs for families and small businesses. I will bring financial relief to families experiencing these rising costs by finally making sure the wealthiest corporations pay their fair share of taxes, without raising taxes on middle-class families. Learn more

I will support the vital role of the federal government in promoting innovation by increasing investments in scientific research and development. Learn more

Education

Universal pre-K: free, high quality pre-K for all Washington children. Right now only 22% of 3 and 4 year olds in WA have access to publicly funded pre-K. The average cost of private pre-K in WA is 8,600. Learn more

Child Nutrition: More than 230,000 children in Washington live in households that struggle with hunger. I have worked to ensure all kids have a healthy start by expanding access to school meals and healthy food in the summer. Learn more

I will work to make sure that our high school graduates have the education and skills they need for today’s economy, whether they are headed to college, trade school, or straight into the workforce. Learn more

We must make college a more affordable option for students and make sure they aren’t burdened by debt for decades. I believe we can use debt forgiveness strategically to channel students into careers where we need help desperately, like mental health professionals, educators, and nurses. Learn more

Environment / Energy

I will continue to champion access to our public lands, and responsible and effective action to reduce carbon emissions and mitigate climate change impacts, and will continue to work to focus resources on people most dramatically affected by climate change. Learn more

Guns

I support repealing the Dickey Amendment, so the Centers for Disease Control can research gun violence as a public health crisis. As a scientist and physician, I know that we base all other health challenges, from highway safety to cancer, on data. But the federal government is not allowed to investigate gun violence in the same way, which must be reversed. Learn more

Immigration

I will push to expand and improve worker visas that agricultural and technology-based economies all across our district depend upon. Learn more

I will push to codify DACA and DREAM Act as laws of the land. Learn more

I will continue pursuing comprehensive immigration reform with a path to citizenship on a bipartisan basis. Learn more

Infrastructure / Transportation

I will prioritize investment in infrastructure, such as public transit in denser areas and access to high-speed broadband for all households and small businesses throughout the district. Learn more

Wages / Job Benefits

I will support legislation to ensure that all workers earn a livable wage that can provide for a family. Learn more
