Michael Alvarez
(Prefers Republican Party) statement appears humanI will continue using my Skills and Experience to improve the Quality of Life for our senior citizens, youth, families, and veterans. A county commissioner must be strong in Finance, Budgeting, Communication, and Personnel Management. I am the only candidate with the education and Extensive Financial and Business background needed to ensure taxpayer dollars are used responsibly and that taxes are NOT raised unnecessarily. I have a proven record of saving taxpayers millions of dollars each year. I strongly support our police officers and firefighters and work to ensure they have the tools and resources needed to provide exceptional public safety. I am honored to have strong support from both law enforcement and endorsed by local fire fighters. I have also built long-standing relationships with the local business community and remain committed to Smart, Sustainable Economic Development that benefits all residents. My pledge is to be Present, Accountable, and Transparent to everyone in Benton County. I have been married to my wife, Gina, for 36 years. We have two children, both graduates of Richland High School and Washington State University. Our family has proudly called Benton County home for 34 years. I am endorsed by the Benton County Republican Party.
