I am honored to serve the residents of the 8th Congressional District of Washington. Here you can learn more about our district, browse the map, find local resources and contact my District Offices.
Washington’s Eighth Congressional District is arguably the most unique. Created in the 1980 Census, it is the only district, which extends across the Cascade Mountains, consisting of both the western and eastern sides of Washington State. The northernmost part of the district begins at Stehekin in the North Cascade National Park, runs southeast to include Lake Chelan, Wenatchee and East Wenatchee in Douglas County, with the district border ending in Vantage at the Columbia River Gorge. Following I-90 west, the district includes all of Kittitas County and continues into areas of King County such as Snoqualmie, Fall City, and Issaquah before turning south to include Auburn, Kent, Puyallup, Algona, Graham, Eatonville and Mountain Rainier National Park.
Within the district, there are numerous recreational opportunities such as biking the Mountain to Sound Greenway, horseback riding the John Wayne Trail, hiking some of the most popular trails in the State in North Bend, or boating in Lake Chelan. The Eighth District holds some of the greatest outdoor opportunities on either side of the state. Outdoor recreation is also a vital component to the economy of the district and State.
The district also represents a wide variety of businesses in fields such as aeronautics, agriculture, biotechnology, and health care. Washington State leads the nation in total exports, with the second largest portion coming from our local farmers, only behind transportation equipment. In 2016, Washington State exported nearly $80 billion both domestically and internationally making Washington the most trade dependent state in the nation. As members of the Ways & Means Trade and Tax Subcommittees, I will continue to look for opportunities to empower businesses through a more efficient tax code and promote Washington State goods in new trade markets.
