ICYMI: Forum at Elma Chamber of Commerce - 10/16/24
The status quo isn't working
It's time for a change
As a career deputy prosecutor, I've seen first-hand the crime and drug epidemic plaguing our communities and the response from Olympia. I've spent over seven years putting away violent criminals, sending people struggling with addiction to treatment, and being a voice for the most vulnerable. I want to use my experience and skills to be your advocate in the Legislature.
As a parent, I share your concerns and struggles as grocery, gas, and other bills increase at the same time property and fuel taxes rise. Costs go up, government hikes taxes and fees, and too many people are one paycheck or emergency away from ruin.
It doesn't have to be this way. With your help, I will fight to ensure that you keep more of the money you earn while government focuses its spending on the highest priorities, like education, safety, and infrastructure.
The bottom-line is that the status quo in Olympia isn't working for Olympic Peninsula families. It's time for a change. No more one-party rule that fails to hold our leaders accountable while offering the same tired ideas.
With your help and support, I believe I can be that voice for change. Please consider joining our team for a better Washington.
