Additional comment from candidate:
It's been an honor to represent the citizens of the 18th district. Transportation and jobs are cornerstones of our economy. I’m fighting to control spending, lower taxes, and reduce job-killing regulations. We must work together to build bridges our citizens support. I’m working diligently on affordable options to relieve congestion and improve freight mobility. Our children deserve world class education; let’s fund education first without raising taxes. Raised on a Brush Prairie dairy farm, I know what hard work means. I’m a successful business owner with thirty years of private sector experience. I lead with integrity and courage, delivering solutions for a brighter future. I never forget I work for you! PHONE: (360) 281-8720 Email: ElectLizPike@comcast.net Website: http://LizPike.us
