Melissa Chaudhry's statement on the murder of constituent Aysenur Eygi in the West Bank

It is with shock, anger, and grief that I respond to the death of Aysenur Ezgi. She was a brilliant and beloved  woman, our neighbor, and a supporter of our campaign.

Aysenur - a passionate advocate for peace and justice - was shot with a sniper rifle while standing, unarmed, near an olive tree away from the main demonstration.

This is a targeted killing of an unarmed civilian by an occupying force, armed with high-powered weapons paid for by US taxpayers. We cannot, in good conscience, continue to arm Israel.

Congress must act to protect lives and restore justice.

KUOW Covers Melissa's Campaign!

🌟 A Proven Leader for WA-09 🌟

Our community deserves a representative who not only stands for peace and human rights but also delivers practical solutions for the challenges we face every day. I’m proud to bring a track record of service and success, including securing $3.2 million in federal funding for affordable housing right here in greater Seattle - BEFORE being a Congresswoman.

Endorsed by The Stranger for my deep policy expertise and "sheer drive," I’m here to offer real, actionable solutions on everything from affordable housing to mental health care. I’m the candidate for all of us who believe in a just, equitable, and thriving future for all in WA-9.

Unlike our incumbent, a lifetime career politician, I'm the candidate who has actually worked on the front lines for years in affordable housing, addiction treatment, homeless services, immigrant support, climate resiliency, and economic development. And unlike his war-profiteering corporate donors, my backers are our neighbors, who are personally invested in the success of our communities.

Together, we can build a district where everyone has a chance to succeed. Let’s make history this November! #VoteMelissa4Congress #PeopleOverPolitics
