[constituency_baseline] District summary: Washington's 4th Congressional District encompasses a large area of central Washington, covering the counties of Douglas, Okanogan, Grant, Yakima, Benton, and Klickitat, and parts of Adams and Franklin counties. The district is home to approximately 770,000 residents and is approximately 55.8% White (Non-Hispanic) and 39.0% Hispanic, with significant Native American tribal communities including the Yakama Nation. The median household income is $77,137, near the national average, with a poverty rate of approximately 9.9%. Only 38.8% of adults hold a bachelor's degree. The economy is anchored by agriculture (tree fruit, hops, wine grapes), food processing, energy (Hanford Nuclear Site), manufacturing, and outdoor recreation. The district is overwhelmingly Republican (R+11 Cook PVI) and is the most Republican district in Washington state. Newhouse has represented the district since 2015. The district is highly dependent on social safety-net programs — over 100,000 people in the district (including 25,000 children) rely on SNAP food assistance. Statewide, approximately 250,000 Washingtonians were projected to lose Apple Health (Medicaid expansion) coverage under the Big Beautiful Bill.

Newhouse voted for the resolution that set the stage for Medicaid cuts. When pressed by KEPR-TV, he deflected that the word 'Medicaid' did not appear in the resolution — even though the E&C Committee's $880 billion target could only be met through deep Medicaid reductions.

The Bellingham Herald editorial board declared he 'sold out his constituents to appease MAGA.' Two progressive challengers subsequently announced 2026 bids.
