Statewide Ballot Measures
SJR 8201 will grow Washington’s long-term care fund for aging people and people with disabilities, keeping premiums low, without costing taxpayers a single penny. Also known as the “Allow Investment of Long-Term Services and Supports Trust Fund Amendment," SJR 8201 is a constitutional amendment adding accountability protections to our long-term care fund, requiring that 100% of investment income be used for long-term care.
If passed, SJR 8201 would increase the state’s long-term care fund for vulnerable Washingtonians by at least $67 billion over the next 50 years by allowing the nonpartisan Washington State Investment Board to diversify investments. In the state legislature, 128 legislators voted in favor of the measure, and only 16 were opposed. Additionally, it has the support of groups such as the Washington State Nurses Association, the Washington State Council of Fire Fighters, Planned Parenthood, and the National Multiple Sclerosis Society.
Vote APPROVED on SJR 8201 to protect and grow our state’s independent long-term care fund for aging adults and people with disabilities.

其他候選人
Phil Folyer is running for another term on the Liberty Lake City Council, Position 4. Folyer was first elected to the council in 2019 and lost in 2023 to Linda Ball. He served in the National Guard for over 20 years and was Mayor Pro-Tem from 2022-2023.
Folyer is running a more conservative campaign for re-election. His priorities include fiscal responsibility, public safety, and infrastructure. While he wants to prioritize funding for law enforcement and strengthen partnerships with the community, Folyer does not detail any specific measures to improve public trust in safety services.
In 2023, Folyer voted in favor of a library ordinance that members of the community deemed controversial. The ordinance, which came forth after a resident attempted to get a book banned from the library, sought to transfer decision-making power from the library's Board of Trustees to the City Council. Residents viewed this shift in power as a move to make it easier to ban books, which opponents found unconstitutional. Additionally, Folyer introduced a "new interpretation of property tax policy that would cut the library's budget by over $50,000" in 2023.
Phil Folyer has proven himself to be a conservative figure who is more focused on maintaining the status quo than doing what is right for Liberty Lake residents.
