Our legislature needs to stop looking for quick fixes to our state’s economic problems and focus on ensuring success for the long term. We need to elect leaders who hold an unwavering commitment to a balanced budget and to our state’s education system.

Electing Andy Hill to the state senate in the 45th legislative district is the best choice for our state’s economy and our children’s future. His involvement in school and youth sports reflects his deep commitment to youth. His work at improving Washington’s schools will result in a new generation of youth who are ready to compete in the global economy.

Hill also understands the need for a fiscally responsible government and is committed to accountability and a balanced budget. His ideas for job creation, promoting small businesses and fair taxes are the foundation needed to get Washington state’s finances back in order.

We need Andy Hill as our state senator in the 45th district to ensure a promising future for Washington state.

John Cochenour, Redmond
