Patty Murray
La senadora Patty Murray ha sido una voz progresista consistente y fuerte en el Senado de los Estados Unidos. Ella está buscando la reelección para continuar luchando por nuestros derechos básicos y una mejor calidad de vida en Washington y más allá.
Debido a una iniciativa de Tim Eyman, la Legislatura está obligada a presentar cualquier proyecto de ley que apruebe que cierre las lagunas fiscales o aumente los ingresos a un voto consultivo no vinculante. La Legislatura tuvo una sesión históricamente productiva en 2021, lo que resultó en varios votos consultivos que aparecieron en la boleta. Esperamos que la Legislatura cambie la ley para eliminar estas medidas sin sentido en el futuro.
