Fire commissioner and housing attorney Tom McGarry is challenging incumbent Jenny Graham for House Position 2 in the 6th Legislative District. In addition to his role as fire commissioner, McGarry serves as board chair for the Spokane County Fire Commissioner’s Association. McGarry is determined to avoid any coronavirus-caused state budget cuts for those who are least economically equipped to handle them. If elected, he states he will bring a workers-first agenda to Olympia with a lens for racial justice. Some of his policy priorities include increasing affordable housing, increasing benefits for workers, and developing a careful and data-driven economic reopening.
McGarry is running against incumbent Republican Jenny Graham. In addition to conservative votes in Olympia against reducing greenhouse gas emissions, establishing a state Office of Equity, and capping insulin costs for diabetics, Graham's coronavirus response has been terrible. Facebook flagged one of her posts as untrue after she questioned vaccine science. Graham has also promoted disturbing conspiracy theories on her Facebook. Her offline coronavirus response has been equally unimpressive. The representative protested the early release of non-violent prisoners who were within 18 months of their scheduled release even with the knowledge that the coronavirus was primed to sweep through jails, threatening thousands of guards, prisoners, and staff.
The residents of the 6th Legislative District deserve better than far-right conspiracy theories from their representatives. Vote McGarry for proven, progressive leadership.

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.
