Dr. Tammy Towers Parry, a family medicine doctor in Seattle, was part of the mob who stormed the Capitol building in Washington DC last Wednesday. In a video on Twitter she was seen declaring that she had stormed the capitol building, where Congress was in the process of certifying electoral college votes.
Towers Parry posted two videos on the social media site. The first video, which looks to be from the steps of the capitol building, shows the dense mob of people who would later overrun Capitol Police and enter the building.
1. Q&A with Sen. Karen Keiser
rd Legislative District. She is a longtime member and former Chair of the Senate Health and Long-Term Care Committee. She also serves as President Pro Tempore of the Senate. In this Q&A, Keiser discusses her goals for the 2021 session, the Long Term Care Trust, bipartisanship, and the new Biden administration.
Keiser highlights three bills as her top priorities: SB 5052, related to health equity zones; SB 5020, which would impose a tax on unsupported drug price increases; and the Health Emergency Labor Standards Act. On achieving bipartisanship, Keiser says, “We cannot just do slam dunks and have our will because [Democrats] have a slim majority. It doesn’t create long term stability. And if you want to make long term change you have to have long term stability. So bipartisanship is a goal. It isn’t an absolute, but it is always a goal.”
