Rep. Kim Schrier, M.D., who represents Washington’s 8th district in the U.S. Congress, has recently highlighted several federal funding initiatives and concerns about public land management through a series of posts on her official Twitter account.

On August 11, 2025, Schrier wrote: “I am proud to secure federal funding for community projects that help constituents across #WA08. From bridge-building projects and food bank expansions to shelter generator installations and Veteran housing programs, these projects will make a significant impact across the”.

The following day, August 12, she met with representatives from Snoqualmie Valley Hospital to discuss an upcoming health facility: “It was great to meet with the @sno_hospital to discuss their new health Hub. I was proud to secure critical federal funding for this project, which will expand primary care and specialty services for our rural communities across the Valley.”

Later that same day, Schrier addressed issues related to public lands management: “Due to senseless cuts to the @forestservice, conditions at the Enchantments have become dire. That is why I called on the Trump Administration to take immediate action to improve the state of treasured public land and protect public health.”

Schrier has represented Washington’s 8th District since 2019 after succeeding Dave Reichert. She was born in Los Angeles in 1968 and currently resides in Sammamish. Schrier earned her undergraduate degree from the University of California, Berkeley in 1991.
