Rep. Kim Schrier, M.D., a U.S. Representative for Washington’s 8th Congressional District, communicated several updates to her constituents via Twitter on May 1, 2026.
In a post from that day, Schrier highlighted her engagement with local residents: “I talked with over 2,000 of my constituents last night during a telephone town hall to answer questions about the work I am doing in Congress. Thank you to all who joined!
Sign up for my next town hall here: https://t.co/lRfDDwnkVt https://t.co/3yvLfhlcBc” (May 1, 2026).
Later the same day, she provided information relevant to those affected by recent natural disasters: “Important update for #WA08: Taxpayers impacted by last December’s severe storms now have until August 5, 2026 to file federal individual and business tax returns and make tax payments. Individuals and households that reside or have a business in Chelan, King, Kittitas, Pierce,” (May 1, 2026). This extension addresses challenges faced by individuals and businesses recovering from severe weather events.
Additionally, Schrier shared her weekly constituent newsletter through another post: “Here is this week’s Schrier Flyer! https://t.co/spX8mjsSN1” (May 1, 2026).
Schrier’s district encompasses areas such as Chelan, King, Kittitas, and Pierce counties in Washington state. The region experienced significant storm damage in December of the previous year. Federal agencies often provide tax relief extensions following federally declared disasters to assist recovery efforts.
