Rep. Sharon Tomiko Santos is running for re-election to the 37th Legislative District, Position 1. Santos formerly worked in banking, politics, and nonprofit management before joining the Legislature in 1998. She is a moderate Democrat and the longest-serving representative of color in Washington’s history.
Though she took a disappointing stance against comprehensive sex education in 2020, Santos has been an advocate for economic justice, civil rights, and environmental action. This year, she took important votes to advance gun safety, set new environmental goals, and create a more equitable criminal legal system. If re-elected, Santos wants to invest in education, health care, and housing so that all Washingtonians have an equal opportunity to thrive.
Her opponent is Republican John Dickinson, who does not appear to have significant elected or community leadership experience. His platform is somewhat confusing, but two of his main goals are to "legalize cannabis" and restore the Comet Lodge graveyard. If elected, Dickinson promises to only serve one term.
Rep. Tomiko Santos is the best choice in this race.Sharon Tomiko Santos

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.
