Dear Friends:

Every one of us is hopeful for a state that is prosperous and safe.  Where jobs that can support our families are abundant.  Where our most vulnerable are protected from criminals, shady businesses, and Internet predators.  Where children from the rural roads of the Yakima Valley to the struggling streets of Seattle’s most challenged neighborhoods can set aside any fear for their personal safety and focus on their future.

I believe strongly in the obligation to serve this state and to aspire to this vision, and that is why I am running for Attorney General.  I know the dangers posed by criminals because I have led teams of law enforcement officers to arrest them and prosecute them in a court of law.  I know the immense damage unscrupulous businesses can cause our most vulnerable citizens because I have fought for those victims in court as the people’s lawyer.  The most important function of government is to safeguard its people and punish those who threaten our free and open society.

I intend to campaign vigorously for Attorney General.  We will give no quarter, concede no vote.  From the small town wheat fields to the forgotten neighborhoods of our largest cities, we will bring our message to every voter.  Please join me.  I welcome your support.

Sincerely,
