Congressman Dan Newhouse (R) is seeking reelection to Washington's 4th District. He faces Trump-backed challenger Jerrod Sessler. We discuss the impeachment vote that continues to follow him, what differentiates him from his Republican opponent, and key issues facing his district – like the fentanyl crisis, overregulation of farmers, and increased costs for families.

I struggled with what to talk to you about tonight.
Well, that’s not true. I didn't struggle with what to talk to you about – I struggled with whether I was brave enough to say what I wanted to say.
When I'm invited to speak to groups, I don't want to offend anyone or be too controversial. So, I reached out to a few of your fellow party members to ask whether any topics were off limits or wouldn't go over well with the crowd.
I got some good advice.
Then I decided to ignore that good advice entirely.
Too much is at stake to be polite.
As we sit here tonight, we are in the final battle of a war.
A war that has pit sanity against insanity.
Pragmatism against idealism.
A war that has sacrificed the public good, in favor of a twisted idea of progress.
