Washington State is at a cross-roads and it is this election that will define our future. For the last six years, the State General Fund Budget has grown by over 26% even through the hard economic times we’re facing. It’s time we send a message to Olympia; the era of big government is over. It’s time that a new transparent and accountable government lead Washington State out of this recession.
Folks, Washington State simply cannot tax, spend or borrow its way out of a $5.0 billion deficit. We need to fundamentally change the way government operates, increase local control over decisions that lead to economic gain, remove the bureaucratic roadblocks State government consistency places in front of its citizens, and return to the “Priorities of Government”.
The Washington State Constitution is very explicit in declaring what government is mandated to do. Protect public health and safety (including the most vulnerable in our society), provide for the education of all children and provide infrastructure. These should be the “Priorities of Government” and these are the areas in which the Legislature must focus its attention.
Next, we must pass sound economic policies which promote free enterprise, privatization of government programs where feasible, reform the onerous regulation on our businesses, and provide the tax incentives necessary to promote expansion of existing businesses.
Finally, we must expand local control to provide local governments with the tools they need to recruit new businesses to Washington State. To paraphrase Thomas Jefferson, “the government closest to the people, governs best.” We must allow our locally elected officials (City Councils and County Commissioners) the power to meet the needs of the people they serve. We must remove bureaucratic oversight from their decisions and, in doing so, return the power to the electorate.
This election will define our future and I ask for your support this November.
