Kincaid’s Statement on the Political Attack on Marie Gluesenkamp Perez

When I first saw the headline. I was surprised and disappointed. Then I read the story. And I was relieved. They took a swing at Rep. Marie Gluesenkamp Perez and missed by a mile. This is a nothing burger. There is no story here. If I were her, I would not answer a single question about it. There is nothing to it. This is not a scandal that sends a campaign into an emergency meeting to build a strategy against. There is nothing to defend. If anything it makes her more relatable.

So the story is not the story. The real question is why. Why now? We have members of Congress with documented histories of sexual harassment and sexual assault against women. And this is what someone chose to spend their energy on? Stringing together unrelated, unproven hearsay from more than a decade ago. About a college student and calling it news?

It is no secret that she is in a tight race. And the people behind this were betting that if they could move just a handful of voters. It might be enough to swing the result. That is what this was. Not journalism. Not something they uncovered. Not something voters needed to know. It was an attack built to influence an election by manufacturing a scandal where none exists.

I said I was surprised and disappointed when I first saw that headline. That is because even though I have never met her. And never spoken to her face to face. Politically I admire her deeply. I believe Marie Gluesenkamp Perez has the heart and soul of a true public servant. We would be far better off with more people like her in Congress.

Most of the 2028 conversation is about names like Gavin Newsom and AOC. I have said for a long time that those would be the wrong choices. Marie Gluesenkamp Perez is exactly the kind of leader this country needs right now. I believe she should be the next President of the United States.

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...

Cruel and Unusual Punishment: Female Inmates Forced to Be in a Cell With Biological Men With a History of Violence

A year ago I called Olympus Spa the hill I was willing to die on. I wrote about a Korean owned women's spa in Lynnwood. Forced by the state to let biological males into a nude, women only space. I also mentioned almost in passing. A lawsuit by a former inmate named Mozzy Clark who alleged she was repeatedly sexually assaulted. By a male inmate housed at the Washington Corrections Center for Women (WCCW) after he told the state he identified as a woman. That was not a passing detail. It was a preview. On April 27, 2026 the America First Policy Institute filed a federal lawsuit. Against the Washington Department of Corrections and Secretary Tim Lang. 0n behalf of Fair for All, Inc. and a 28 year old WCCW inmate named Faith Booher-Smith. The complaint alleges that on August 7, 2025 Booher-Smith was attacked from behind in the prison cafeteria by Christopher Williams. A six foot four male inmate convicted of a child sex offense. Who had been transferred to WCCW under...

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...
