Rep. Suzan DelBene, currently serving in the U.S. Congress representing Washington’s 1st district, has expressed her views on recent events through a series of tweets. DelBene, who replaced Jay Inslee in 2012 and resides in Medina, shared her thoughts on incidents involving antisemitism and political decisions affecting healthcare.

On June 2, 2025, Rep. DelBene addressed an incident in Boulder with a tweet stating: “A horrific act of terror in Boulder last night. My prayers are with the victims, their families, & the Jewish community. Antisemitism & hate have no place in our communities.” This message reflects her condemnation of antisemitic acts and support for affected communities.

Later that day, she commented on healthcare policy decisions by Republicans with another tweet: “The only ‘choice’ here is the one Republicans made by voting to take health coverage away from 14 million Americans so they can give more tax cuts to the wealthy.” The statement criticizes Republican actions regarding health coverage and tax policies.

On June 3, 2025, Rep. DelBene tweeted a brief but pointed comment: ‘Disgusting abomination’ indeed. The context or subject matter was not elaborated upon within the tweet itself.

Suzan DelBene has served as a congressional representative since 2012 after graduating from Reed College and later from the University of Washington.
