Doug White Insider – October 28, 2022

Posted on October 28, 2022

INSIDER

OCTOBER 28, 2022


GET YOUR VOTE OUT


 I was busy the last few weeks traveling to different areas in our District, getting to know voters, sharing my vision and commitment when I get elected. WA Democrat Latino Caucus, the Tri-Cities Herald,

Ballots are arriving in mailboxes across the state – that means every day is Election Day. Make sure you return your ballot by mail or in a drop box near you by November 8. Let’s flip WA-04 and bring real leadership to Central Washington!

El sábado pasado, yo estuve presente en el Parque Volunteer para la marcha de mujeres. Las legislaturas estatales, el gobierno federal, y la corte suprema no pueden arrebatarnos nuestro derecho de tomar decisiones acerca de nuestras vidas, ni la autonomía de nuestros cuerpos. La constitución protege todo ciudadano nacido, o naturalizado en este país con derechos y protecciones que no pueden ser negados. Republicanos, especialmente el Representante de nuestro Distrito, Dan Newhouse, eligió votar ‘No’ en 2022 sobre el Acto de Protección de la Salud Femenina. No respeta los fundamentos básicos de los derechos humanos. ¿Como podemos esperar que el ayude a nuestra comunidad, o, que ayude y represente a nuestra gente?

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

I was honored to be invited to White Swan High School as they are launching a Farm to Table program to teach students about their heritage and self-sufficient farming through growing their own food.

Good education is the backbone of a civilized and developed community. We have always been living in this land, in all its diverse beauty and abundance, and our kids should have all opportunities to learn and appreciate the gift of nature.

Tuve el honor de ser invitado a la Preparatoria White Swan ya que están lanzando un programa Del Campo-a la-Mesa para ensenar a los estudiantes sobre su herencia y como ser independientes en la siembra de sus propios alimentos. La educación apropiada es la columna de una comunidad desarrollada y civilizada. Siempre hemos vivido en esta tierra con todo su esplendor diverso y su abundancia, y nuestros hijos deben tener todas las oportunidades de aprender y apreciar el obsequio de la naturaleza.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

As Election Day is coming up in less than two weeks, I have more chances to participate in multiple Candidate Forums, in Ephrata, in Tonasket, in White Salmon, at the Wenatchee Valley Chamber of Commerce…etc. While Dan Newhouse, as usual, was a no-show.

This proved that the leader of this district has always been absent. We need someone that has the skills and capability to see the future and deliver!

Instead of arguing, we should be building! Infrastructure, energy, and rail attract family-wage jobs and secure our future. These forums are how politics should be as people face their elected officials and candidates. By sharing my visions and thoughts on critical matters such as water shortage, infrastructure, cleaning up the Hanford site, or Snake River Dams removal, I am able to reassure you and your trust that I am the right person for the job.

A medida que se aproximan las elecciones, dentro de cuatro semanas, eh tenido mas oportunidades de participar en múltiples foros de candidatura, en Ephrata, en Tonasket, en White Salmon, en la Cámara de Comercio del Valle de Wenatchee… etc. Y como de costumbre Dan Newhouse no se presento.

Esto demuestra que el líder de este distrito siempre ha estado ausente. Necesitamos alguien que posea las habilidades y la capacidad de visualizar el futuro y someter lo. ¡En lugar de discutir, deberíamos estar construyendo! Infraestructura, energía, y tranvía atraen ingresos familiares y aseguran nuestro futuro. Estos Foros son como la política debería ser mientras la gente enfrenta sus funcionarios electivos y candidatos. Al compartir mi visión y pensamientos sobre asuntos críticos tales como escasez de agua, infraestructura, la limpieza del sitio de Hanford, o la eliminación de presas del rio Snake, puedo asegurarles y a su confianza que soy la persona adecuada para esta candidatura.

I was in a debate organized by the Yakima Herald-Republic editorial board. Thirty minutes of questions with Rep. Dan Newhouse. Smart and sharp is how I would describe it.Check out these links to read about my answers.

Q&A: Newhouse, White discuss views on housing, homelessness

Republican Dan Newhouse of Sunnyside is defending his U.S. House seat against Democrat Doug White of Yakima in the Nov. 8 general election. The Yakima Herald-Republic asked each to talk about their views on housing and homelessness: The issues of homelessness and housing are compounded in the Yakima Valley.

Q&A: Newhouse, White discuss views on public safety

Republican Dan Newhouse of Sunnyside is defending his U.S. House seat against Democrat Doug White of Yakima in the Nov. 8 general election. The Yakima Herald-Republic asked each to talk about their views on Public safety: Yakama Nation and Yakima County law enforcement leaders recently sent a letter to federal officials requesting more public safety resources, including funding to support hiring more officers and support for a regional crime center.

Q&A: Newhouse, White discuss views on health care

Republican Dan Newhouse of Sunnyside is defending his U.S. House seat against Democrat Doug White of Yakima in the Nov. 8 general election. The Yakima Herald-Republic asked each to talk about their views on health care: Yakima’s only full-service hospital and trauma center reported $28.1 million in losses in the first two quarters of 2022, and the Yakima Valley’s other two hospitals, Astria facilities in Sunnyside and Toppenish, also reported first-quarter losses.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

I was at pancakes with politicians this morning on NBC Right Now. Dad jokes, interviews, and pancakes.

These television appearances gave me a chance to show supporters, not just my ideal visions for the District but also let me express my personality. A chance to show you who I am as an individual. My decision to run for Congress genuinely comes from the heart as all I want is to protect our community, increase our living standard and restore the area’s economy following the rise of inflation and climate change.

For politicians who just want to hang on to power and make profits from tax money would not be able to assist everyone’s needs. All Dan knows is dams, corporations and big business, and doing exactly as his party handlers tell him to do. All that needs to be done is to look at his voting record.

Pancakes with Politicians: Doug White

KENNEWICK, Wash.- KNDU’s Pancakes with Politicians highlights candidates for different elected offices around the region. Catch the series weekdays from 5-7 a.m. The general election is Tuesday, November, 8, 2022. Doug White is running for Congress as a Democrat from Washington’s fourth district. White was born and raised in Yakima and is a fourth-generation central Washington farmer.

We only get one voice in Congress, just one. We can no longer allow our elected officials to squander our money and our future. Newhouse supported increasing our debt by $8 Trillion Dollars and the largest trade imbalance with China in our nation’s history. He cut corporate taxes by 14%, but not ours and he and his wealthy friends skimmed $300 Billion dollars off a program for small businesses.

I am a strong leader and I will make our government accountable. I have a plan and I can deliver. I ask for your vote.

Spanish translation: Daniel Octavius

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

    No Kings: Vote Early Tri-Cities WA

    October 17, 2026  11:00 AM - 1:00 PM
    https://www.mobilize.us/nokings/event/1050350/

    We decide who represents us. We decide what comes next.

    For more than a year, millions of people have come together to reject the idea that power belongs to kings, billionaires, or politicians who believe they are above the people and the law.

    Now, we are taking the next step, turning people power into voter power. Unlike previous No Kings actions, No Kings: Vote Early, is not purely a protest. Instead, on October 17th, it's a day of nonpartisan voter participation: we are bringing the Tri-Cities together to make a plan to vote early and ensuring every eligible voter understands their options for how to vote and has the opportunity to make their voice heard.

    Because no one person gets to decide our leaders before voters do. On October 17th, join us in local events across the country as we get out the early vote and say it loud: no thrones, no crowns, no kings.

    Our monthly Indivisible Tri-Cities meetings are all about taking action in our community.📆

    💬We’ll be talking about what’s happening, how our community organizations are stepping up, and how we can help. We’ll also start planning for upcoming events.

    🗣️We want to hear from you! Your ideas and input matter.

    ✊This is how we build power together. Come connect, learn, and take action with us. See you there!

    If you're able, please bring a non-perishable food item for donation. We strive to collect these resources at every Indivisible Tri-Cities event, on behalf of our community partners.

  • No Kings: Vote Early - Hermiston, OR

    No Kings: Vote Early - Hermiston, OR

    October 17, 2026  1:00 PM - 3:00 PM
    https://www.mobilize.us/nokings/event/1056520/

    On the corner of the Plaza and at the old Rite Aid, both sides of 395. Stay on sidewalks and allow pedestrians to pass. Bring signs, music, costumes and chants!

    We decide who represents us. We decide what comes next.

    For more than a year, millions of people have come together to reject the idea that power belongs to kings, billionaires, or politicians who believe they are above the people and the law.

    Now, we are taking the next step, turning people power into voter power. Unlike previous No Kings actions, No Kings: Vote Early, is not purely a protest. Instead, on October 17th, it's a day of nonpartisan voter participation: we are bringing our community together to make a plan to vote early and ensuring every eligible voter understands their options for how to vote and has the opportunity to make their voice heard.

    Because no one person gets to decide our leaders before voters do. On October 17th, join us in local events across the country as we get out the early vote and say it loud: no thrones, no crowns, no kings.
