In case you missed it, I posted my interview with @shasti.bsky.social last night!

Trump and Republicans in Congress are spearheading a health care disaster. Do better - stop the attacks on health care and stop raising costs. www.theolympian.com/news/politic...

Today on the show at Noon ET, DNC vice chair @shasti.bsky.social lays out the Democrats’ new strategies to fight back Tune in on Substack or open.substack.com/live-stream/... YouTube www.youtube.com/watch?v=Infe... And Political Voices Network at 8p ET www.youtube.com/@PoliticalVo...

This was a good one! Thank you @24sight.news for having me on! Be sure to check out for conversation. We talked about the power AANHPI voters have, insights from my town halls in Virginia and New Jersey, and much more. www.youtube.com/watch?v=c8gc...

Thank you, Secretary Hobbs, for refusing to hand over confidential info and protecting Washingtonians’ personal data. Democracy works when people can trust the system. Protecting our privacy makes that possible.

We will not compromise the privacy of Washington voters by turning over confidential information that both state and federal law prohibit us from disclosing. washingtonstatestandard.com/2025/09/23/w...

Washington Democrats released the following statement:

I'm horrified by the news coming out of Utah about the attack on Charlie Kirk. Political violence has no place in our country. Not now, and not ever. Praying for him and his family.

Last night was one for the books! I was in beautiful Poulsbo, WA, to speak at the 23rd LD Dems Salmon Dinner. I spoke about our Party’s fight to defend our country against fascism. It was also an evening of community, fun, and joy!

Last week, I traveled to New Jersey and Virginia to listen and speak with AANHPI leaders and community members about the power our communities have in their key statewide elections and on the national level. A big thank you to @saforamerica.bsky.social organizing four terrific events.

Don’t miss the 20th annual Netroots Nation, Aug 7-9 in New Orleans! Chair Shasti Conrad will speak Saturday at the largest progressive gathering in the country. Join 3,000+ progressives for keynotes, panels, training, and more. registration.socio.events/e/netroots25...

The fact that literally zero outlets ever cover crime decline as a story is a huge reason. (And before you yell at me, we do!)

Yesterday, Chair @shasti.bsky.social joined Jefferson County Dems to celebrate the power of grassroots organizing, Democratic wins, and the fight ahead. From the 24th LD to statewide victories, our Washington is leading the way! Thank you, Jefferson County Dems, for a fantastic event!

“Tennessee matters, Memphis matters, and this is just the beginning.” -DNC Vice-Chair Shasti Conrad (@shasti.bsky.social)

@wadems.org have been doing a GREAT job. Even as WA turned more blue, GOP are coming after our mail voting system. WA Dems have been doing town halls in Eastern WA GOP districts, but I'd like to see billboards and postcard campaigns as well. GO @shasti.bsky.social, WADEM chair and DNC VC.

The Republicans in Texas led by Trump, Gov. Abbot and AG Ken Paxton are about to steal Congressional seats making it impossible for us to take back the House. This is a power grab that if successful will happen in every red state across America. We have to fight back! (1/2)

Trump said he would lower your costs. He lied. Trump said he’d lower the deficit. He lied. Trump said he wouldn’t cut your health care. He lied. The proof is in his budget.

Today, Donald Trump and the Republican party sent a message to America: If you are not a billionaire, we don’t give a damn about you.

Congrats @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social from one desi to another from the Great State of Washington!

Earlier today @shasti.bsky.social was elected #DNC Vice Chair with a vote of 225 (55.7%) to 177 (43.8%) for Kalyn Free. This win confirmed that @democrats.org want positive campaigns with a clear vision for our future—and ensures that at least one of our elected officers is #AAPI. Congrats Shasti!

“We are not just strategizing to win elections. We are working to transform lives." @shasti.bsky.social has her eye on the goal. This⤴️ is the mindset Dems need to move forward, rather than the reactive, imitative 'find a Dem 'Joe Rogan'" vibe. www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news...

Shasti’s the first Indian-American woman to lead a state party—and as Chair of Washington Democrats, she helped win some of the toughest congressional races in the country. I know she’s ready to keep doing the work so we can: make life better.

Congrats to my friend @shasti.bsky.social! Proud to have her join me as a Vice Chair of the DNC. If you don’t know her yet, you should. She worked for President Obama and later ran surrogate strategy for Bernie’s 2016 campaign.

I cannot tell you how happy this makes me @shasti.bsky.social has done a fantastic job in Washington. They are the only state that became more democratic during the last election. I wanted her from the beginning. I am so stoked she and @malcolmkenyatta.bsky.social are gonna be working side-by-side

My friend @shasti.bsky.social was just elected as a DNC Vice Chair. She’s an incredibly committed fighter for young people. I’m so excited to support her leadership in this critical moment.

We did it! I’m honored to serve as Vice Chair of the Democratic National Committee and am deeply grateful to the members who placed their trust in me.

Only @shasti.bsky.social can help reform the Democratic Party.

On the "any gender" ballot for DNC Vice Chair, Shasti Conrad received 176.5 votes (43%), Kalyn Free received 148 votes (36%), and Jeanna Repass received 80 votes (19%). With a majority required to win, we move to a final ballot. On this ballot, I again vote for @shasti.bsky.social.

Big choice. Easy vote. @shasti.bsky.social for DNC Vice Chair. #DNC

Fellow DNC Members, we’re now in a runoff for the any gender DNC vice chair race— I am once again asking for your support for @shasti.bsky.social!

Now on to the runoff and it’s time for @shasti.bsky.social for DNC Vice Chair race. Shasti was the lead vote getter today.

I’m thrilled to once again endorse my friend and WA State Dems Chair @shasti.bsky.social for DNC Vice Chair. I have known Shasti for 5 years — she is deeply committed to empowering young voices and fighting for working people. She’ll be an incredibly leader for the party.

My heart goes out to Minnesota House Speaker Melissa Hortman and her husband’s family and all who loved them. Also praying for the recovering of Senator John Hoffman and his wife. Political acts of violence must be condemned and freedom of speech and assembly must be protected.

Our hearts are with Minnesota and our whole Democratic family:

In the face of this horrific violence we must peacefully protest those who enable such barbarity. Our calls for a peaceful and just future will not be silenced.

Washington Democrats mourn Fmr Minnesota Speaker Melissa Hortman and her husband who were targeted and killed in a politically motivated attack. We stand against all forms of political violence and encourage everyone to keep safe.

Spokane Mayor is a Democrat thanks to @shasti.bsky.social.

WA Dems Chair @shasti.bsky.social reacts to Trump’s speech last night: “It was a lot of bluster from the President, it was a lot of boasting, but not much about solutions for everyday working people.” www.youtube.com/watch?si=OmS...

Under her leadership, WA stood strong against GOP gains in 2024, and now she’s bringing that success to the national stage. Congrats, Chair Conrad! www.politico.com/news/2025/03... (2/2)

Great news! WA state Chair @shasti.bsky.social has been appointed as a DNC Associate Chair! “It is an honor to work alongside Chair Ken Martin and the rest of the DNC leadership team to grow and build the Democratic Party across this nation.” (1/2)

Here’s what Democrats did today (February 11):

The Washington Way is the Winning Way. I strongly believe that our strategic organizing and popular policies here in Washington State led to our overwhelming victories in 2024 – and they can help other states across the nation. washingtonstatestandard.com/2025/01/29/d...
