The State of the Campaign – El estado de la campaña

Acabamos de terminar el segundo trimestre de la campaña y tenemos un gran progreso para compartir. La recaudación de fondos para el primer trimestre batió récords, al igual que el segundo. ¡Recaudamos más dinero que cualquier otro retador demócrata en el estado y más dinero que cualquier retador republicano en el distrito cuatro del Congreso!

La estructura de esta campaña y nuestro ambicioso plan de comunicación nos ha llevado más lejos, más rápido y con mayor éxito que otras campañas.

Mi campaña está organizada para incluir a todos los presidentes de condados demócratas y distritos legislativos. Al hacerlo, aprovechamos de inmediato décadas de conocimiento y vastas redes de relaciones y recursos. Esto nos permitió empezar en un punto al que otras campañas no podían llegar en años, mucho menos en un ciclo electoral.

We have just finished the second quarter of the campaign, and we have great progress to share. Fundraising for the first quarter was record breaking, and so was the second. We raised more money than any other democratic challenger in the state and more money than any republican challenger in congressional district four!

The structure of this campaign and our ambitious outreach plan has moved us further, faster and with greater success than other campaigns. 

My campaign is organized to include all of the Democratic County and Legislative District chairs. In doing so we immediately tap into decades of knowledge and vast networks of relationships and resources. This allowed us to start at a point that other campaigns could not reach in years, much less an election cycle.

Reconocí que el modelo electoral tradicional solo nos llevaría hasta cierto punto. No podemos ignorar la forma en que se hacen las cosas, pero la política tradicional carece de inclusión. Cuando pregunté cómo llegaríamos al 50% o más de mis electores que son hispanos, la respuesta anterior fue: “podemos traducir un volante al español”; eso no es inclusión. Incorporé al primer Defensor de la Diversidad pagado a tiempo completo para llegar a las comunidades que estaban privadas de sus derechos del proceso político y hacerles saber que en esta campaña hay espacio para todos. La respuesta ha sido abrumadoramente positiva.

Me he fijado metas altas para esta campaña. Ya he estado desde la parte superior de este distrito hasta el fondo y de regreso 3 veces y cada semana nosotros:

  • celebrar un ayuntamiento
  • Trabajar para llamar a 50.000 puertas antes de julio
  • Banco de teléfono dos veces
  • celebrar un evento
  • Participar en más de 5 eventos realizados o patrocinados por otras organizaciones
  • ¡Y solo estamos empezando!

Comenzaremos a vender letreros de jardín la próxima semana @ www.DougWhite4Congress.us La campaña también ha estado trabajando para traducir completamente toda nuestra literatura, incluido nuestro sitio web, al español. ¡Asegúrese de visitar el sitio web el 1 de mayo para ver la versión completamente en español, y mientras esté allí, puede reservar su letrero de jardín! La votación también tendrá lugar a finales de mayo. Estamos aumentando nuestros viajes, recaudación de fondos y alcance comunitario, con planes de llegar a tres veces más personas en junio que en abril.

I recognized that the traditional election model would only get us so far. We cannot ignore the way things are done, but traditional politics lack inclusion. When I asked how we would reach the 50+% of my constituents that are Hispanic the old answer was, “we can translate a flier into Spanish”; that is not inclusion. I brought on board the first full time paid Diversity Advocate to reach out to communities that were disenfranchised from the political process and let them know there is room in this campaign for everyone. The response has been overwhelmingly positive.

I  have set high goals for this campaign. I have already been from the top of this district to the bottom and back again 3 times already and every week we: 

  • Hold a Town Hall
  • Work towards knocking on 50,000 doors before July
  • Phone bank twice
  • Hold one event
  • Participate in more than 5 events held or sponsored by other organizations 
  • And we are just getting started! 

We will start selling yard signs next week @ www.DougWhite4Congress.us  The campaign has also been working to fully translate all of our literature, including our website, into Spanish.  Be sure to check out the website on May 1st to see the fully Spanish version, and while you’re there you can reserve your yard sign!  Polling will also take place in late May. We are ramping up our travel, fundraising and community outreach, with plans to reach three times as many people in June as we did in April.

Nuestro trabajo por la diversidad también ha crecido. Estamos planeando eventos que incluirán comida y cuidado de niños, para poder llegar a las familias jóvenes. Hemos establecido relaciones con organizaciones locales en varios condados, lo que triplica la cantidad de alcance que podemos lograr. Esto amplifica el trabajo que ya se está haciendo por la justicia social y ambiental. Estamos trabajando de cerca con un grupo de jóvenes latinos locales para continuar expandiendo nuestra red de base en Tri-Cities a través de diarios, medios, radio/podcast y música y arte. Estamos trabajando en estrecha colaboración con los miembros de las tribus Colville y Yakama para establecer una relación duradera con las comunidades indígenas. Esperamos asistir a nuestros primeros pow-wows y otros eventos importantes.

Our work towards diversity has also grown. We are planning events that will include food and childcare, so that we can reach out to young families. We have established relationships with local organizations in several counties, which triples the amount of outreach we are able to achieve.  This amplifies work already being done for social and environmental justice.  We are working closely with a group of local young Latinos to continue to expand our grassroots network in Tri-Cities through journaling, media, radio/podcast and music and art. We are working closely with Colville and Yakama tribe members to establish a long-standing relationship with indigenous communities. We look forward to attending our first pow-wows and other significant events.

La semana pasada también asistimos al foro de reforma de inmigración y H2A organizado por el caucus agrícola y rural. El programa H2A está lejos de ser perfecto y necesita más responsabilidad y recursos para hacer cumplir las regulaciones. Es bueno estar en discusión entre productores y trabajadores agrícolas a través de UFW.

Asistí a la experiencia En Sus Zapatos que busca dar una mirada al interior desde la perspectiva de las víctimas de violencia doméstica. La violencia doméstica es una de las principales causas de violencia en nuestras comunidades y debe abordarse directamente.

In the past week we also attended the H2A and Immigration reform forum hosted by the Ag and Rural caucus. The H2A program is far from perfect and it needs more accountability and resources to enforce regulations. It is good to be in discussion between growers and farmworkers via UFW.

I attended the In Her Shoes experience aimed at giving an inside look from the perspective of domestic violence victims. Domestic violence is one of the leading causes of violence in our communities, and needs to be directly addressed.

¡Cómo ganamos!

Los fundamentos de esta carrera cambiaron significativamente en los últimos meses, lo que hizo que nuestro camino hacia la victoria fuera más claro. Todos los indicios continúan apuntando a que Dan Newhouse no sobrevivirá a la primaria. Los indicadores incluyen una reprimenda completa por parte de los republicanos estatales y distritales y su recaudación de fondos se ha desplomado.

Loren Culp esperaba un impulso a su campaña con el respaldo de Donald Trump, pero eso no produjo ningún dinero. Hasta ahora su única notoriedad ha venido de su inexcusable y grosero comportamiento.

El Partido Republicano se dividió cuando los republicanos del distrito le dieron la espalda a Donald Trump y apoyaron a Brad Klippert.

Newhouse no tiene garantizados los votos para ganar las primarias. Pero incluso con esa realidad, el resto de los republicanos no pueden actuar juntos para formar una campaña o gestionar la comunicación con los votantes. ¡La mitad de ellos ya están endeudados! Quizás para asegurarme de enfrentarme a Culp en las primarias, que es el mejor escenario para mi victoria, tendría que prestarle algo de dinero y hacer campaña por él.

How we win! 

The fundamentals of this race changed significantly over the last few months making our path to victory clearer. All indications continue to point to Dan Newhouse not surviving the primary. Indicators include a complete rebuke by the state and district republicans and his fundraising has plummeted. 

Loren Culp expected a boost to his campaign with Donald Trump’s endorsement, but that did not translate into any money. So far his only notoriety has come from his inexcusable and loutish behavior. 

The GOP split when the district republicans turned their back on Donald Trump and endorsed Brad Klippert. 

Newhouse isn’t guaranteed the votes to win the primary.  But even with that reality, the rest of the republicans can not get their act together to form a campaign or manage outreach. Half of them are in debt already! Perhaps to ensure I will face Culp in the primary, which is the best scenario for my victory, I would have to loan him some money and do some campaigning for him. 

Mi campaña está agradecida por la coalición que estamos construyendo y el trabajo que se está realizando. Espero continuar actualizándolos en nuestro camino hacia la victoria.

My campaign is grateful for the coalition we are building, and the work that is getting done.  I look forward to continuing to update you on our path to victory.

Trump budget cuts mentors for 700 Tri-Cities students. United Way hopes to save itStory by Cory McCoy, Tri-City HeraldMore than 700 Tri-Cities students were left without mentors after the sudden elimination of the federal AmeriCorps program in April.For more than a decade AmeriCorps members volunteered with the Attendance Matters program to help Tri-Cities elementary and middle school students build a pathway to successfully graduating high school.The unexpected closure of the agency left students to finish out the school year without the mentors they'd come to rely on.Now the United Way of Benton and Franklin Counties is looking to save the program with a scaled-back version using local mentors. They're hiring new mentors as staff members in order to ensure they can guarantee consistency in the program.While the fate of the AmeriCorps agency is currently wrapped up in lawsuits brought by a coalition of states, funding was eliminated in the final version of President Donald Trump's "One Big Beautiful Bill" which set federal spending for fiscal year 2026.United Way leadership is hoping for the best, but preparing to do what they can to ensure students aren't left behind.The program averaged about 20 mentors at nine middle schools through support from AmeriCorps. With local funding the nonprofit hopes to start with six new mentors, who will be ready to support students once school is back in session.Each school district will get two mentors, one for an elementary school and its corresponding middle school, with the greatest need.United Way hopes to grow the program, but will need community support through partnerships and recurring commitments.Attendance MattersCommunity Impact Director Asta Bonheyo said in a news release that the goal is to ensure students continue to feel supported."We believe that consistent school attendance is a foundation for student achievement," Bonheyo said. "This program not only helps kids show up - it ensures they feel seen, supported and encouraged along the way."They're looking for people with strong relationship-building skills, a passion for youth development and a commitment to modeling positive habits.Bilingual candidates, college students pursuing education or social services and retirees with flexible schedules are encouraged to apply."Mentors become trusted adults in the lives of students who may need just a little encouragement to succeed," Bonheyo said. "This is about real relationships and showing up, literally and figuratively, for our youth."Candidates can apply online through the United Way of Benton and Franklin Counties' career page at uwbfco.org/careers. Applications are open until all positions are filled. The new mentors will start Aug. 21 and serve through June 2026.About Attendance MattersAmeriCorps provided about $315,000 in direct funding to the Attendance Matters Program in 2023, and about 20 volunteers in that cohort received $78,000 in education awards for their service. Volunteers living away from home were also eligible for a stipend paid through the agency.After AmeriCorps funding was cut in April, the program was completely eliminated in the FY 2026 federal budget.AmeriCorps was a national service program with several divisions that help communities with volunteering, disaster response, employment and more.The National Civilian Community Corps, which sends disaster response teams to communities, was the first to be cut in April. Shortly after, about 85% of the AmeriCorps administration was laid off and $400 million in grant funding was terminated.The Tri-Cities area benefited from a variety of programs funded and staffed by AmeriCorps.Those programs included Serve Tri-Cities, a nonprofit centered on increasing reading and math skills in elementary schools across Pasco, which received about $600,000 in funding in 2023 with 30 volunteers.The largest AmeriCorps program in the area was the Seniors RSVP program, which was a flexible program that relied on seniors to fill critical needs in the community and provide experienced volunteers to local food banks, nonprofits and other organizations.The seniors program was run through Catholic Charities of Central Washington. While Seniors RSVP only received about $135,000 in 2023, they paired 275 volunteers with local organizations. Their counterpart through Yakima Valley Community College had 350 volunteers that year.A second senior oriented volunteer program through the Diocese of Yakima paired 170 volunteers with home-bound seniors to provide help and companionship. That program was the most costly in the region, at $1.2 million in 2023.The cuts to Attendance Matters was the second major hit to the United Way of Benton and Franklin Counties because of federal cuts.Their Emergency Food and Shelter Program, which provided grant funding to local nonprofits through FEMA, saw its federal funding suddenly cut in March.They also saw a hit to funding to help pay for the Dolly Parton Imagination Library. Washington state leaders stepped in to keep that funding flowing for at least another year.To get involved or donate to the United Way of Benton and Franklin Counties, visit uwbfco.org. ...

Wall Street is calling Trump’s bluffStory by John Towfighi, CNNPresident Donald Trump is threatening to revive his trade war. Wall Street isn’t too concerned.Global markets were relatively calm Tuesday after Trump on Monday ratcheted up his tariff campaign — but extended the deadline to August 1 and said he was open to negotiations. That provided a sense of optimism for investors.Stocks across Asia — including in Tokyo, Seoul, Hong Kong and Bombay — opened higher on Tuesday. US stocks opened mostly higher: The Dow fell 57 points, or 0.13%. The S&P 500 rose 0.05% and the tech-heavy Nasdaq gained 0.3%.Market movements were relatively muted, signaling investors think Trump’s new tariffs are more negotiating tactics than firm policy. It’s a noticeable change from early April, when Trump’s “Liberation Day” tariffs sent stocks plummeting.Three months after Trump initially announced massive “reciprocal” tariffs and then instigated a 90-day pause, Wall Street is looking through the tariff rhetoric.“This latest round of tariff news feels more like an aftershock, one the market was prepared for, rather than the seismic event that shook markets on ‘Liberation Day’ over three months ago,” Tony Sycamore, market analyst at IG Australia, said in a note.Trump late Monday told reporters at the White House that the August 1 deadline is “firm, but not 100% firm.”The tariff letters are “more or less” final offers, Trump said. “I would say final, but if they call with a different offer and I like it, we’ll do it.”“If they call up and they say ‘we’d like to do something a different way,’ we’re going to be open to that,” the president said.“Yesterday’s letters and tariff tweets, I would categorize it as same threat, different goalpost,” Kurt Reiman, head of fixed income at UBS Global Wealth Management, said.Investors in recent weeks have embraced the “TACO trade,” betting that “Trump always chickens out” on his major tariff threats — especially if there is an adverse reaction in markets.“This opens the door for another round of ‘TACO Tuesday,’ Trump-style,” Sycamore said.Markets look through tariffsUS stocks fell on Monday after Trump announced a slew of new tariffs, but losses were relatively contained: The Dow, S&P 500 and Nasdaq finished the day lower by less than 1%.Wall Street has wrestled with Trump’s on-and-off tariffs for months. While the president is considering reigniting his trade war, investors say markets are taking it with a grain of salt.“Markets have broadly shrugged off the tariff news overnight,” Frederic Neumann, chief Asia economist at HSBC, said. “Essentially, the door remains open for individual economies to whittle down proposed tariffs through negotiations.”“Investors are taking the glass-half-full view at the moment, enjoying the reprieve from the deadline extension, rather than focus on the reiteration of the potential tariff levels should negotiations fall through,” he added.The new tariff announcements are a “speed bump” as opposed to something that would “derail” the momentum in stocks, according to Mohit Kumar, chief strategist and economist for Europe at Jefferies.“Singling out certain countries for higher tariffs is a way of putting pressure on these and other countries to agree to a deal sooner rather than later,” Kumar said.Trump so far has only announced frameworks for trade deals with the United Kingdom, China and Vietnam. Peter Navarro, White House senior counsel for trade, had said in April the administration would pursue “90 deals in 90 days.”Trump on Monday sent letters to 14 countries outlining proposed tariff rates. Investors are still keeping their eyes peeled for announcements about potential deals or tariff letters for dozens of trading partners including India, Taiwan and the European Union.The S&P 500 has notched four record highs since June 27 as investors have begun to look past tariff anxieties. Wall Street heavyweights are expecting a push to higher levels.Bank of America on Tuesday raised its year-end forecast for the S&P 500 to 6,300 from 5,600. Goldman Sachs on Monday raised its year-end forecast for the S&P 500 to 6,600 from 6,100, citing expectations of sooner-than-anticipated Federal Reserve rate cuts, “fundamental strength” of large US stocks and “investors’ willingness to look through likely near-term earnings weakness.”Analysts at Barclays said in a June note that markets were beginning to “turn the page” on tariffs to focus more on how artificial intelligence is impacting corporate earnings and how economic data continues to hold up.David Wagner, portfolio manager at Aptus Capital Advisors, said he thinks tariffs are at the lower end of the list of things markets are concerned about.“I think the market has moved on from it,” he said. “If there was some market volatility, Trump’s probably going to give in.”Investors are now viewing tariff uncertainty within the broader context of Trump’s agenda, Michael Reynolds, vice president for investment strategy at Glenmede, said. Trump last week succeeded in passing his budget bill, which provided more clarity for Wall Street.Uncertainty lingersWall Street is betting Trump won’t push for tariff rates that would destabilize the global economy, enabling stocks to grind higher. Some analysts warn of complacency.“This modest reaction is perhaps a function of the market pricing in the ability to negotiate down tariffs, or perhaps a continuation of the TACO trade,” said Michael Wan, senior currency analyst at MUFG, in a note. “We are not so sure on our end, and it does seem to us like overall risk assets seem too sanguine to these tariff rates which are essentially quite similar to Liberation Day.”Sarah Bianchi, senior managing director at Evercore ISI, said in a note that Trump is “feeling good about recent victories” and with stocks near record highs, he is more likely to lean into imposing his tariff agenda.Inflation data for June will be released next week, providing more insight into the economic impact of tariffs. In the meantime, investors will be on the watch for announcements about potential trade deals or tariffs.“With the proverbial can likely to be kicked further down the road, leaving negotiators a bit more room to maneuver … markets are pricing little signs of concern,” analysts at Barclays said in a note. “However, it remains prudent to consider all possible scenarios, given the narrative around tariffs remains quite fluid and Trump maintains a ‘do whatever we want’ position.” ...
