Legislative Update – February 3, 2012
Welcome to my home page, and thanks for visiting.
A big part of my job is making sure you know about issues important to our neighborhoods in the 44th District.
I’m focusing on three key issues:
- Making our state more energy independent;
- Building a university in Snohomish County;
- Protecting our environment – clean air, clean water and sustainability.
It’s always a pleasure to hear from real citizens instead of the lobbyists who hound me during session. I believe lobbyists and special interests have too much sway. We need to hear more from everyday people like yourself.
Please get in touch with me if you have any questions or ideas, and thank you again for taking the time to visit my web site.
Sincerely,
Hans
