Will Rollet is running against Republican incumbent Ed Orcutt for House Position 2 of Legislative District 20. Rollet is a communications student at Lower Columbia College and a member of the Kelso Public Library Advisory Board. He is a working-class resident of the 20th District and wants to represent other working-class Washingtonians who make up a large part of the district but often lack a voice in Olympia.
Rollet is running to advocate for affordable housing, expanded broadband internet access, and accessible health care for the district. He has specifically stated his support for Medicare for All given the public health crisis caused by COVID-19. If elected, Rollet wants to pursue gun safety legislation, including policy targeted at suicide prevention.
Rollet is challenging 18-year incumbent Rep. Ed Orcutt, who is running on a typical Republican platform of reducing regulations on businesses and landowners. In addition, he's opposed to balancing our state's upside-down tax code, which will invariably lead to massive cuts to essential services given that the state faces a several billion-dollar budget shortfall due to COVID-19. Orcutt has also voted against many progressive bills, including establishing a state Office of Equity, reducing greenhouse gas emissions, automatic voter registration, and requiring state insurers to cover contraception.
Rollet has earned numerous endorsements from local advocates and is the best candidate to represent progressive values in office.

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.
