Cathy McMorris Rodgers
U.S. Congresswoman
5th District of Washington

Polished, confident
and credentialed with
prestigious Wall Street
experience

Cathy McMorris Rodgers is proof that what
we were taught as children is true today. In
America, with a positive attitude, hard work,
and dedication, we can rise from simple
beginnings to important positions of influence.

Cathy was born to a farming family with deep
roots in Eastern Washington. The early
members of the McMorris family settled as
pioneers in Walla Walla in 1853.

Growing up, Cathy worked on the family
orchard side by side with her parents and
younger brother.

Cathy was the first in her family to attend and graduate from college. She worked her
way through Pensacola Christian College in Florida and later earned her Executive
MBA from the University of Washington.

She served five terms as a citizen legislator in Olympia eventually being elected to
minority leader. When the legislature was not in session Cathy worked in her parents’
small business, Peachcrest Fruit Basket, near Kettle Falls, Washington.

In 2004 Cathy was elected to Congress where she now serves in her third term
representing Eastern Washington's Fifth Congressional District.

Cathy's responsibilities have changed significantly over the years but she has
remained true to her roots. She believes in the promise of America. In Congress,
Cathy promotes policies to give wider opportunities to families and small businesses.
She works to keep taxes down, strongly supports our troops and veterans, and works
to improve access to quality, affordable health care.

Her committee assignments position her to further this agenda. Cathy currently
serves on:

House Armed Services Committee
Education and Labor Committee
Workforce Protections Subcommittee
Natural Resources Committee

Cathy was chosen to be a member of the Republican Leadership team in 2009, where she is vice chair of
the Conference.

McMorris Rodgers is a Republican who finds opportunities to work across party lines. Cathy served as
Co-Chair of the bipartisan Congressional Women's Caucus with Representative Lois Capps (D-CA). Along
with democratic Congressman Adam Smith, she introduced Health IT legislation and is co-leading a
statewide Health IT task force to position Washington for future Health IT advancements.

She is married to Brian Rodgers, a retired 26 year active-duty Navy Commander; they have one son.

Wilma McNabb

Executive Director of
the Donovan McNabb
Foundation & President
of PFPM Association

"Keeping our nation and communities safe is my top priority as
a Member of Congress. I appreciate the professionalism,
service and dedication of the nation’s men and women serving
in the Armed Forces. I know first-hand the sacrifice our men
and women in uniform make in order to keep us safe. My
husband Brian is a 26-year retired Navy pilot.

I am committed to maintaining a military that is capable of
protecting America’s national interests and ensuring our
nation’s veterans receive the benefits and respect they deserve.

We must ensure our military men and woman have the tools
they need to stay safe and effective. Those who serve in our
military do so voluntarily and are willing sacrifice to protect our
nation’s borders and interests.

Our country therefore owes them access to the benefits and
care the military men, women and their families deserve."
