Pierce County is headed towards great things if we make the right decisions – decisions that will guide us to jobs and prosperity, that make sense out of government and that support healthy communities and families.

For most families, quality of life starts with good paying jobs near our homes. We all want jobs that we can count on to pay the bills and let us spend time with our families.

The wealth of the family is about more than just your checkbook. It’s about a healthy family. It means we spend time at our kid’s football and soccer games and get to the open house at school on time – not stuck in traffic.

Community wealth is about building the kind of tax base to support parks and trails, schools and senior centers and provide law enforcement with the tools they need to keep our communities safe – without raising taxes.

As the next County Executive, I will fight for Pierce County’s future. I hope I can count on your support.
