Statement
Public service is about listening to our community and finding common-sense solutions. I’m proud of our progress on building affordable housing, taking urgent action on climate change, and improving transportation including transit and walkability. We need to do more to ensure excellent public schools, address homelessness, expand behavioral health services, tackle the fentanyl crisis, and improve neighborhood safety. Keeping Washington a 100% pro-choice state is imperative. My door is always open for you – and your ideas.

Statement
I am a senior, and with the increasing high cost of living, I am still working and caring for my partially disabled wife. I understand the struggles of life. As your elected representative I will help bring common sense back to Olympia. I support constitutional rights and liberties, reducing government spending, lowering onerous taxation, election integrity, parental rights, school choice, local zoning and planning, single family housing, and reducing crime (drug trade, and human trafficking). I am opposed to state and local income tax, expansive executive powers of our governor, defunding the police, cap and trade, and government insurance schemes.
