Rep. Tina Orwall is running for re-election to the 33rd Legislative District, House Position 1. In the House, Orwall serves as the Deputy Speaker Pro Tem. Before running for office, Orwall spent 20 years working on the public mental health system and held a position in the City of Seattle's Office for Housing.
In Olympia, Orwall leads a suicide prevention task force and has sponsored a bill that would provide suicide prevention training and messaging in firearm literature. This year, she sponsored legislation to prevent race-based hair discrimination and to require the state to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. Orwall is an advocate for survivors of sexual assault, serving on the advisory group working to end the backlog of rape kits in Washington and sponsoring legislation earlier this year to end the criminalization of sex-trafficking victims.
Orwall's opponent is Republican Kerry French, who received enough write-in votes in the primary to make the November ballot. French, a former campaigner for Sen. Ted Cruz and advocate for Rep. Matt Shea, is a Navy veteran who states that she's running to make sure that businesses can't be deemed "non-essential" in the pandemic and to push back against age-appropriate sex education.
With her progressive track record, Orwall deserves your vote.

Young people deserve accurate information to help them make good decisions, to protect themselves, and to protect their futures. But today, too many students don’t receive high-quality, inclusive, medically accurate education about sex and healthy relationships, putting them at risk of sexual assault, unintended pregnancies, and sexually transmitted infections. In particular, students of color are more likely to receive incomplete or incorrect sex education.
