It will be November before you know it

Rick Larsen for Congress     281 days. That is how many days we have left before Election Day this November. 281 days seems like a lot, but Republicans in Congress are using each and every one of those days to raise oodles of cash for their efforts to take over the House. Just a…

One last thing to do before the end of the year

Rick Larsen for Congress     I am counting on you. You know how critical it is that Democrats win in 2022. We must continue to defend voting rights. We must make progress on climate change. We must keep up the pressure on the Senate to follow through on the critical work we are …
