On Tues. 12/2 my office will host a rally/press conference to announce proposed legislation to mitigate President Trump’s austerity budget in Wash. State. The Well Washington Fund protects healthcare, higher ed, and housing. Let’s make sure it passes in the 2026 Washington State Legislative Session.

Wow. While we wait for the few remaining ballots to be counted, we feel like we have won this race. The recent drop put us nearly 1,400 votes ahead, just under the .5 percent threshold for a mandatory recount.

Caving on a deal that doesn’t fix health care is, and always has been, a giant betrayal of the American people.

Hold the line. Save health care. I’m a NO on anything that doesn’t extend ACA subsidies.

A bright yellow Katie Wilson campaign graphic that reads: it's a nail biter folks! today King county elections dropped 36,566 newly counted ballots. we won about 52% of today's drop! King county is counting ballots much more slowly than normal this year, so we didn't quite see the bump we were hoping for today. but it's still good news. there are still about 100,000 ballots to be counted. Make sure yours is counted at the link in bio. we're going to need every single one. this is your city!

King County elections confirmed to me that so far they’ve only counted ballots up to those submitted Monday or early on Election Day, and none from drop boxes. Wednesday reflects basically a wrap up of what they started counting Tuesday.
