Not surprised to see U.S. Rep. Rick Larsen, D-Wash., being a part of the effort to bring the 2026 World Cup to Seattle. (“How Rep. Rick Larsen helped Seattle secure its 2026 World Cup bid,” The Herald, July 4).

The congressman lends his considerable efforts to many critical initiatives: affordable housing, renewing the Child Tax Credit, the support of the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, TB and Malaria, along with legislation to battle climate change and more. And in transportation matters like the recently passed infrastructure bill, Larsen played a key role, being a senior part of the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee.

Why not take a moment to drop a note of thanks for his effective work? Thanks, Rep. Larsen, keep working for what matters to families!
