Representative Tina Orwall is a reliable vote on most progressive issues. In Olympia, she has sponsored legislation to prevent truancy issues for students and has also sponsored a bill to help fight human trafficking. Unfortunately, Orwall played a lead role in defeating gun safety legislation that would have allowed families and law enforcement to petition a court to temporarily suspend a person’s access to firearms if an individual is threatening harm to themselves or others.
Orwall is opposed by Libertarian Charles Schaefer and Republican John Potter, neither of whom are running competitive campaigns. Despite her poor record on gun safety, Orwall is still the best choice in the race.

Eric Pettigrew is a moderate Democrat running to retain his seat. Pettigrew has been a leader on women's health, sponsoring the Reproductive Parity Act, and has also led on criminal justice issues, including work to help prisoners obtain higher education and a bill to ensure young offenders have equal access to rehabilitation services. Though Pettigrew has a less than stellar record on labor and education issues, including votes against public employee health care pensions, we were happy to see he voted in favor of raising the minimum wage this year.
Pettigrew faces no party candidate Tamra Smilanich, who is not running a competitive campaign. Due to the unique and important work he is doing on criminal justice issues, Pettigrew deserves your vote.

Rep. Larry Springer is a small business owner and moderate Democrat who prioritizes education. He is progressive on social issues and more conservative on environmental and labor issues. Disappointingly, Rep. Springer refused to support legislation that would have held Boeing accountable for keeping jobs in Washington in order for the company to receive a tax break. Springer is running unopposed in this race.

Brooke Valentine is a passionate education advocate who has served on many advisory committees with the Kent School District, including her leadership as co-chair of the recent successful levy campaign "Citizens for Kent Schools." She has also served as Legislative Director and in other various roles on the Washington state PTA.
Her opponent, far-right incumbent Rep. Mark Hargrove, said during a debate this year that investing $15,000 in safety measures for kids' school buses was "too much money." Hargrove has also been a consistent opponent of women's health choices and LGBT equality. For her leadership around smart education solutions, Valentine deserves your vote.

Rep. Sharon Wylie is a moderate Democrat who has more than 20 years of non-profit and government experience. In the legislature, she has been a vocal supporter of affordable housing, women's access to health care, and meeting the McCleary requirements to fund education.
Wylie faces a primary challenge from Kaitlyn Beck, a progressive who is referenced as a "Bernie-crat" on her website. While Beck is not raising any money in this race and does not share the same broad support from our partners as Wylie, we are excited to see a talented, out transgender person running on a platform of accessible transit, affordable housing, and protecting the environment, and hope she runs again in the future. Wylie deserve your vote.

Chief Justice Barbara Madsen has led our state Supreme Court in a fair and impartial manner through a series of high profile cases. First elected in 1992, Madsen was only the third woman to ever serve on our highest court. She has won numerous awards for her service, especially for her work creating opportunities for young female lawyers and judges. Despite Republican efforts to politicize our court over rulings about education funding and several Tim Eyman initiatives, Madsen has maintained a steadfast commitment to upholding equal justice under law.
Madsen is opposed by Greg Zempel, a Republican prosecutor from Kittitas County. Zempel has said he is running because he disagrees with some recent decisions. Also in the race is "Zamboni" John Scannell, a perennial candidate who is not running a credible campaign. Madsen is by far the best-qualified candidate in this race.

Seattle is one of the fastest growing cities in the country, which is pushing rent and real estate prices higher every month. As a result, many working families, seniors, and young people are struggling to keep a roof over their head. Many are forced to live far away from where they work - making traffic worse - or leave Seattle altogether just to afford their rent. We must do better.
Seattle's Proposition 1 is $290 million replacement and expansion of the existing affordable housing levy that would cost the average homeowner $122 per year. This critically important proposition would build 2,150 new affordable apartments and provide emergency rental help for 4,500 families on the brink of being homeless. Vote YES on Proposition 1 to ensure Seattle remains a place where working people, seniors, and young people can afford to live!
