Kim D. Harless

(Prefers Democratic Party) statement appears human

In this critical moment, Vancouver needs a State Representative with proven experience and deep community roots. I have a strong record of addressing affordability, homelessness, climate resilience, and transportation. I’m endorsed by the American Federation of Teachers, numerous state legislators, and organizations ready to work with me in Olympia. As a mother and multi-racial, Indigenous, and Mexican American raised in Vancouver, I know firsthand the challenges we face. I’ll fight for working families, good jobs, unions, immigrant rights, childcare, fully funded schools, universal healthcare, a fair tax system, and our environment. Progress is possible, but only with your vote!

(Prefers Republican Party) statement appears AI

Washington needs practical, transparent, accountable government focused on affordable living, safe communities, and results families can feel. As a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner, nurse, mother, and community leader, I have spent my career helping people through crisis. In emergency rooms, behavioral health care, and community service, I have seen the cost of policies that sound good but fail in real life. I will bring a clinician’s discipline, a nurse’s compassion, and a mother’s common sense to Olympia. I will listen, work across differences, and be an independent voice delivering real solutions for Southwest Washington.
