Clyde Shavers

(Prefers Democratic Party) statement appears human

The economy isn’t working for us, and everything is unaffordable. Gas is too expensive, so I voted no on a tax that would have made it cost even more. Property taxes are too high, so for years I’ve worked on expanding tax exemptions for seniors and veterans. Groceries cost too much, so I co-sponsored legislation to reduce pressure on food prices. Water bills keep rising, so I fought unfair rate hikes. Veterans aren’t receiving benefits they earned, so I passed legislation for more Veteran Service Officers. Every day, I’m fighting to lower costs and make your life more affordable.

(Prefers Republican Party) statement likely AI

As a Navy combat veteran, father, grandfather, and small business owner, I am on a mission to rescue Washington. One-party control in Olympia ignores working families. Their reckless spending, waste, and failed policies directly drive up inflation–skyrocketing your daily costs for gas, groceries, and housing–and no one is accountable. True leadership demands common-sense fiscal discipline over politics. I will fight to lower taxes, slash government waste, protect your family budget, and restore accountability. Results matter. I will work tirelessly to protect your paycheck and secure the financial future for our kids and the generations to come.
