About

Elected: 2000 (5th term)

  • Background: Senior Democrat; top Democrat on Senate Commerce in 119th
  • Committees: Commerce (top Democrat), Finance, Energy
  • State: Significant Ukrainian community around Seattle and Spokane

Bio Maria Cantwell is the top Democrat on the Commerce Committee, which has authority over export controls. Those controls directly shape Russia sanctions enforcement on semiconductors and other dual-use technology.

Ukraine Record

  • Voted YES on every Ukraine aid package
  • Pushed export-control legislation that blocks Russian access to Western tech
  • Not an author of current UAPortal bills

Advocacy Insight

  • Ask them to: Use her Commerce seat to strengthen Russia export-control enforcement, and sign onto the REPO Act (S. 2918) and the SHADOW Fleet Sanctions (S. 2904).
  • Why it works with them: Boeing is a major Washington employer. Russia has closed itself off as an aircraft market, while Ukraine is a growing one. Washington companies benefit when Russia is isolated.
  • Your connection: Mention the Seattle Ukrainian community and Washington's stake in export-control enforcement.
  • Avoid: Broad "Ukraine aid" framing. Focus on tech, exports, and Boeing.

Without this bill, hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians who fled the war and built lives in the U.S. face deportation back to an active war zone. This is the single most urgent protection for Ukrainians in America.

    Hi, my name is [YOUR NAME], a constituent from [YOUR CITY/ZIP].
    
    I'm calling to urge Representative [REPRESENTATIVE'S NAME] to cosponsor H.R. 3104, the Ukrainian Adjustment Act of 2025.
    
    Hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians fled Russia's invasion and are now living in the U.S. on temporary status. They cannot safely return to an active war zone. H.R. 3104 gives them a path to permanent residency. It's bipartisan, it's targeted, and it's the right thing to do.
    
    Will Representative [REPRESENTATIVE'S NAME] cosponsor H.R. 3104?
    
    Thank you.
