John,

As we gather with loved ones this Thanksgiving, I want to take a moment to share my heartfelt gratitude for you - and the incredible community of supporters who make our work possible.
 
This year has been hard for so many of us. Families are stretched, costs keep rising, and too many of our neighbors are feeling uncertainty about their jobs, their healthcare, and their futures.

Yet through it all, I’ve seen real strength in our shared commitment to a more safe, just, and secure country. Your determination to stand up for progress - even when it’s difficult - inspires me every single day.

After the holidays, I’ll be reaching out to hear about your priorities for 2026. But today, I simply want to thank you – for your unwavering support, your trust in me, and your commitment to creating a better future for all of us.

It is a true honor to represent the South Sound in Congress.

Wishing you and your loved ones a warm and joyful Thanksgiving.

With gratitude,

Marilyn
