Kincaid Endorses IL26-638 and IL26-001, Calls on Washington Voters to Vote YES in November

Redmond, Washington — 3-21-2026

Today Kincaid announced full support for two Washington state ballot initiatives IL26-638, Protecting Fairness in Girls’ Sports, and IL26-001, Strengthen Communication Between Parents and Schools and is urging voters statewide to vote YES on both measures this November.

“These initiatives are about fairness, transparency, and the fundamental rights of families. I’m proud to support them both, and I’m asking Washington voters to do the same.”

Standing Up for Girls in Sports

Kincaid expressed strong support for IL26-638, arguing that fairness in school athletics must be protected.

“Title IX opened doors for generations of female athletes. Those protections need to mean something. No girl should lose a scholarship, an award, or a roster spot because adults are unwilling to defend basic fairness. IL26-638 makes sure they don’t have to.”

Keeping Parents in the Loop

On IL26-001, Kincaid emphasized that open communication between schools and families is a matter of basic accountability not a political statement.

“Schools should be working with parents, not around them. Parents have a right to know what is happening in their children’s lives academically, socially, and in terms of their well-being. IL26-001 ensures that right is protected.”

"God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, Courage to change the things I can, And wisdom to know the difference."

A Call to Action

With the November 2026 election approaching, Kincaid urged Washington residents to make their voices heard at the ballot box.

“Vote YES on IL26-638. Vote YES on IL26-001. This is a chance for Washington voters to stand up for girls, stand up for parents, and stand up for common sense.”

November 2026

Vote YES on IL26-638 • Vote YES on IL26-001

Nurse Assault Prevention and Accountability Act of 2027

Nurse Assault Prevention and Accountability Act of 2027 Protecting the People Who Take Care of Us Overview Protecting the People Who Protect Us Every day across America, nurses, certified nursing assistants (CNAs), and frontline healthcare workers walk into hospitals, clinics, and long term care facilities not knowing whether they will be respected or threatened spat on, shoved, or worse. They are not asking for praise. They are asking for protection. According to recent data, nearly three out of four workplace violence incidents in the private sector occur in healthcare settings. Seventy five percent. Nurses are punched. CNAs are attacked. Emergency room staff are threatened not just during pandemics, but during routine shifts in everyday hospitals, in everyday America. And yet, in many states, if someone assaults a nurse throws a punch, delivers a slap, or spits in their face there may be no serious consequences whatsoever. In too many places, it is treated as a minor m...

Kincaid’s statement on Microsoft job cuts

A Few Words on the Recent Microsoft Job Cuts Back in the old days, if you spoke out against a major employer, people would warn you: "Be careful this is a company town." Well, Washington State today is essentially a company state. Taking on Microsoft directly would be political suicide for most. Let me be clear: I am not attacking Microsoft, and I am not looking to start a fight with them. But I do think some of their decisions deserve a closer look. Stock Buybacks vs. Real Investment Over the past ten years, Microsoft has spent roughly $170 billion on stock buybacks. That practice is not unusual among large corporations, but it raises a fair question. Instead of artificially inflating its own share price, could some of that money have been put to better use . Invested in people, in innovation, and in the communities that made Microsoft what it is today? Re-examining the H-1B Visa Program We should also take a hard look at the H-1B visa program. Companies claim...

Kincaid's statement on Olympus Spa " Olympus Spa Is the Hill I'm Willing to Die On "

Let's Save Olympus Spa I was genuinely shocked when I learned what happened to Olympus Spa in Lynnwood. I kept asking myself. How? Why? How is something like this even possible in America? At first, I assumed this would never hold up in court. I thought there was no way the people of Washington had voted for this. And I was right they didn't. The voters never decided this. The state legislature did. They passed a law declaring that a biological male including one with male genitalia could be legally recognized as a woman by the state. A new driver's license. A new legal designation. And then the state turned to places like Olympus Spa a women only business where patrons are nude and said: "You must let him in. Or we will sue you." It did not matter that female customers were deeply uncomfortable being unclothed around biological males. It did not matter that this directly violated the sincere religious beliefs of a Korean owned women's spa. It did n...

Kincaid’s Strategy to End Homelessness

Three Crises, Three Solutions: A Smarter Strategy to End Homelessness "Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results." By that standard America's approach to homelessness has lost its mind. We spend more every year. The crisis gets worse every year. The problem is not a lack of money and it is not a lack of compassion. It is that we keep applying one solution to three completely different problems. Homelessness is not one crisis. It is three addiction, severe mental illness and economic hardship. Each one demands a different response. Until our policy matches the cause to the cure nothing will change. Decades of Failure Billions Spent For decades agencies from HUD down to county programs have spent billions to fight homelessness. The spending goes up. The promises pile up. The encampments keep growing. Why? Because most of our programs rest on a theory that does not survive contact with reality. That if a thousand people are home...

Proposal: No Federal Income Tax for Persons Earning $61,000 or Less

No Federal Income Tax or Tax Filing for People Earning $61,000 or Less Summary This proposal would eliminate federal individual income tax liability for people earning $61,000 or less in total wage income, simplifying the tax system for tens of millions of working Americans while having minimal impact on federal revenue. In practical terms, anyone earning approximately $29.33 per hour or less would pay zero federal income tax and would no longer be required to file a tax return each year. Payroll taxes Social Security and Medicare would still be deducted from paychecks as they are today. Beyond that, nothing. No additional federal tax withheld. No annual filing requirement. Rationale Based on IRS data from the past decade (2013–2022), households earning $61,000 or less make up approximately 50 to 60 percent of all U.S. tax filers. Yet this group contributes only 2 to 3 percent of all federal individual income tax revenue roughly $53 to $79 billion per year, depending o...

The Tragic Failure Behind the Lawrence Reed / Bethany MaGee Case

The System Failed And an Innocent Woman Paid the Price The Tragic Case of Bethany McGee, Lawrence Reed, and Why We Must Reform Civil Commitment Laws When violent repeat offenders are allowed to roam freely despite decades of documented warning signs, innocent people are left playing Russian roulette simply by going about their daily lives. We must bring back long term psychiatric care. We must reform civil commitment laws. And we must stop pretending that what we are doing is working. Just months after Iryna Zarutska was randomly stabbed in the neck and killed on a train in North Carolina, another senseless attack occurred this time on a train in Chicago. On November 17, 2025, Bethany McGee, a 26-year-old woman, was riding the CTA Blue Line when a man named Lawrence Reed poured gasoline on her and set her on fire. She was left fighting for her life. As horrifying as this attack was, it should not have come as a surprise. It was the predictable result of a system that had i...

The Chinese Car Ban: Who Is Congress Really Protecting?

Trade Policy · Affordability · Consumer Rights May 30, 2026 Congress wants to ban Chinese cars from American roads. The proposed Protecting America from Chinese Cars Act would make it official. But the truth is the ban is already here. It just does not have that name yet. The tariffs currently imposed on Chinese electric vehicles exceed 100 percent. That is not a trade policy. That is a prohibition with a price tag attached. I am against it. And I want to explain why. You Are Already Driving a "Chinese" Car and Do Not Know It Volvo is owned by Geely a Chinese company. Most Americans think of Volvo as a Swedish brand. They buy Volvos because they are safe, reliable and well designed. They did not buy a Chinese car. They bought a Swedish car that happens to be owned by a Chinese company. The world did not end. National security was not compromised. Life went on. Just days ago Volvo had to go to the Trump administration and negotiate a special exemption just to...

KINCAID Exploratory Committee

Updated April 2026 Today, I am announcing my candidacy for Congress in Washington's 1st Congressional District. I have filed official candidacy paperwork with the Federal Election Commission. I am a Democrat challenging fellow Democrat Representative Suzan DelBene, who has held this seat for more than 12 years. State filing will be completed during Washington State's filing period of May 4 - 8, 2026. Washington State ranks among the worst states in the nation for retirees largely due to the cost of living. But affordability is unlikely to be a personal concern for Representative DelBene. Like so many career politicians, her personal wealth has grown dramatically during her time in office. According to Quiver Quantitative, her net worth has more than doubled since she was first elected from $60 million to an estimated $141.5 million. That may sound extraordinary, but it is not unusual. More than half of all members of Congress are millionaires. I am not criticizing anyo...

Kincaid’s Gun Control Policy

Gun Safety That Works: Stopping Gun Theft Before It Happens There is a significant gap in the national debate on gun control policy. The overwhelming focus has been on laws that do little or nothing to protect people from the daily street crime happening in communities across the country. Far too little attention has been paid to stolen handguns and to preventing guns from being stolen in the first place. Home invasions and vehicle thefts happen every day, and in many cases they result in firearms being stolen. A criminal should not be able to smash a car window and walk away with a bag full of guns in a matter of minutes. Yet right now, in most of America, that is exactly what can happen with minimal consequence for anyone. Only 16 states and the District of Columbia require gun owners to report a lost or stolen firearm. Think about that for a moment. There is no federal law requiring the secure storage of guns. A child safety lock may be included with a firearm purch...

Kincaid’s Statement on Antisemitic Attack Against Jewish Student in Seattle

What happened to a 15-year-old Jewish girl at Nathan Hale High School in Seattle is not just deeply disturbing. It is a case study in how antisemitism spreads when institutions fail to confront it and in how that failure, left unchecked, produces something genuinely terrifying. This is racism. This is hate. This is evil. And the response from the school system made it worse. I call upon the Mayor of Seattle, the Governor of Washington, the State Attorney General, and all city, state, and federal representatives to condemn this attack without hesitation. I urge them to fully investigate every student and staff member involved and to offer their unwavering support to the victim and her family. The people of Seattle and the entire state of Washington should be horrified that this happened. We should be embarrassed. We should be ashamed. There is an infection of evil spreading in our country, and this case is one of the most chilling symptoms. I fear what the students ...
