Looking Ahead


April 17, 2018

Greetings Friends and Neighbors,

Now that the dust has settled on the 2018 legislative session, it is time to get to work. I have several policies that I believe will help our district, but I want to hear from you and get your feedback on what you think I should be working on.

I think that these topics are important for our community:

  • Fixing Sound Transit 
  • Car-tab relief
  • Creating an elected Board
  • Property tax relief
  • General citizen oversight and accountability (re-vote for over-budget projects)
  • Creating a New County

I sponsored a bill to separate Seattle from the rest of King County, similar to arrangements of other large cities in the country like Los Angeles. This will benefit suburban areas and Pierce County by giving more of a voice in regional council boards and provide better representation in decision-making. 

Here are some successes from this past year:

  • Recreational trail extension while protecting private property rights in Bonney Lake
  • HWY - 410 Bridge Replacement

Join me for breakfast or dinner at locations around the district  

I will be holding informal meetings around the district in the coming weeks, promoting small businesses and community outreach. Please contact my office to schedule a time or feel free to simply stop by and chat.
