Remember WA State folks, if you don't receive your ballot you can print it! Just go to your county election website (here's King County's as an example) kingcounty.gov/en/dept/elec... #ProtectTheVote

Vote early and in person, folks. If you're in a "vote by mail" state and can deliver your mail-in vote directly rather than relying on USPS this year, do it. Otherwise get it into the mail at the earliest possible date. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

The Tacoma detention center has some of the highest bonds set. This community member is trying to raise funds to meet the bond granted to his sister and mother. Please help share and support this fundraiser. gofund.me/09e18104b #solidarity #wekeepussafe

When Trump attempts to interfere with the midterms, a coalition of Seattle groups will be ready with our most potent tools - the overwhelming power of a strategic general strike in conjunction with coordinated, peaceful, mass civil disobedience.

I don’t have much time for drawing these days but took a break yesterday to draw this for my godson’s fifth birthday party. He did a little dance and giggled when he saw it so I consider that a win :)

Evangelical hero showing us, again, who he is. Christians, what quality of Jesus does this man display in his daily behavior? What do you think your kids are learning from watching him?

Dolly is gone. What an amazing life and legacy. She did it her way and left the world better for her time here. A true, original, giant. I can hear that amazing song just looking at this joyous photo. Thanks for the memories, Dolly. Rest in power.

I was the only candidate in the last two primaries to call for expansion and reform of the Supreme Court in the voter’s guide for WA-02’s Congressional seat. We have to make it clear. Commit to depoliticizing the SC or we will vote you out!

There will come a day when his name, image, and gold-plated bullshit will be removed from everything but a jail cell. And we will celebrate that day as the Day of Unfucking. Or maybe there's a better name?

Three AIM HIGHER voter meetups in two days in Bellingham, Edmonds, and this one in Everett. We hear the same thing at these and other events as well as my many calls with voters - people are fed up, everything costs too much, we’re in danger of losing our rights, and we need new leadership if we

expect different results. I’ve got a plan and a long history of bringing people together to get hard things done. Not just talk, action. Not just promises, results. Give my campaign a look before you vote. And reach out if you have questions. I love taking to voters.

Passionate people at our open house in Edmonds! Thanks so much to Cafe Louvre and everyone who stopped by. People are fired up! These kind of conversations are so energizing. Next stop — Everett at 7pm, 2301 Rockefeller ave. 98201. Come join the party!

Join us Sunday to meet candidate for US Congress, Devin Hermanson. The cost of everything is too high, from gas to fertilizer. Devin has a plan for how we fight back that focuses on putting power and money in the hands of you and your family instead of billionaires. See you Sunday!

I have a plan for we fight back and win called the Democracy Sprint. It's a step-by-step plan to defend and strengthen our democracy and finally build a new America that focuses on putting power and money in the hands of you and your family instead of billionaires.

Enjoy this recording of our town hall, which touched on many of the key issues we're facing as a district and nation. If you have any questions, would like to join the campaign, or read the Democracy Sprint plan, visit us at devinforcongress.com.

To take its crusade to line the pockets of billionaires at the expense of the rest of us to the next level. Permanently. Every dollar in tax cuts to billionaires and corporations is taking money out of your pocket. That pisses me off, and

AIM HIGHER: That was the theme of our town hall, and it was an electric night with great groups on Zoom and live in Mount Vernon. We made space for laughter but dealt with serious issues around defending our democracy and discussed my plan, The Democracy Sprint, detailing a strategy for

and our ability to come together in a crisis. We're going to win this fight and build a new America we've never seen - one that serves all of us, not the billionaires. We’re going to get it done.

AIM HIGHER: Join us Tuesday online or in Mt Vernon for a rollicking discussion of how we not only overcome the authoritarian threat but build a new America that puts us first, not billionaires. Details at our website.

The amazing Miracle shared her face painting talent with me at Ferndale Pride. Her energy is infectious. Easy to see how she’s running both a successful salon and event management business. Dynamo! Our teams will be in Bellingham, Everett, and Mt Vernon today. Say hi if you see us!

Oats has something to say and so does Laura. It’s a story of resilience and creativity amidst Trump’s crazy economy. “I was laid off last summer (due to tariffs) and struggled to find employment even with a college degree, so I created my own job and started my own business.”

That business is Hare & Hound Northwest in Bellingham. I’d like to make things a bit easier for entrepreneurs like Laura by making sure her family doesn’t have to worry about health care with Medicare for All, down payment assistance for her and

her husband’s first home, student loan forgiveness, and make the wealthiest Americans pay their fair share. That’s how we help unleash the potential of entrepreneurs to pursue their dreams and fuel our economy. And good call, Oats! You made an excellent choice.

There was so much love and hope at Bellingham Pride! Standing up for this community is close to my heart. As a member of Congress, I’ll fight for equal rights in all arenas, gender affirming care, anti-bullying policies in schools, and end conversion therapy federally.

We are organizing for a general strike and if Trump tries to steal the midterms, we will shut it all down.

Trump will lie about the 2020 election. Trump will lie about the 2026 election. But, if Trump claims powers he does not have, or tries to undermine free and fair election, we will sue and we will win. If you doubt me, take a look at my record in beating him and his allies in court.

Larsen voted with the GOP to continue funding Israel's genocide against Palestinians. He justified it on humanitarian grounds, ignoring the Palestinian people. Larsen has taken significant money from AIPAC, another argument for replacing Larsen and getting money out of our elections.

Buttigieg: Our political and economic and social systems have been letting us down for a long time. Otherwise, we wouldn't be here. That old status quo, all of that is what led to all of this which is why there's no going back.

Such a strange path from a friend of McCain to Trump sycophant. I hope Lindsey had some moment of repentance before he died so he could depart this Earth with a measure of dignity and peace. Condolences to his loved ones.

Huge thanks to Sapphic Bellingham for this kind endorsement. I have and always will stand with the LGBTQ+ community. More critical now than ever. Our team will be at Bellingham Pride this Sunday. Come say hello, share your story, and let me know how I can serve you in Congress.

Had an amazing time at Everett's Parade yesterday. And while the other candidates were IN the parade waving at voters, our team walked the route listening to them. That's what this campaign is all about. We heard plenty—from across the political spectrum. Samantha was particularly concerned about

the treatment of immigrants, and virtually everyone was worried about the cost of living. I love hearing people's stories and discussing solutions with voters. It's a huge honor. And when we came across

conservatives with very different views, we still agreed we could be friends. WATCH THIS PAGE! We'll be releasing clips from the interviews with Samantha and others over the next few days. See devinforcongress.com for more info!
