Lillian Ortiz-Self

(Prefers Democratic Party) statement appears human

As a school counselor, I’m proud to have secured equitable investments in early learning, education, and technical and career training. As a mother and grandmother, I’ve prioritized community health and safety by expanding behavioral health care, strengthening and diversifying law enforcement, and advancing gun violence prevention. As your representative, I will continue working to strengthen our local economy through support for small businesses, protections for workers, an infrastructure that supports a clean economy and protections from harmful government overreach. With your continued support we can achieve a more fair, just and affordable future for all Washingtonians.

Bruce Guthrie

(Prefers Libertarian Party) statement appears human

Everything costs too much. Gas. Groceries. Rent. The cause of inflation is bad government policies. Our State gas tax is among America’s highest. Excessive taxes on businesses raise grocery prices. The rent is high because of high property taxes and over-regulation. Government spending in WA is at record levels. Tax revenues, too. The new State income tax will soon be modified to affect the middle class. A vote for Bruce Guthrie is a vote to fight the irresponsible spending in Olympia, and to fight this new, unconstitutional State income tax, which will reduce employment for the poor and middle class.
