Rep. Kevin Van De Wege (D-Sequim) with Sequim High School sophomore Joseph Landoni IV on the floor of the House of Representatives, where Landoni of Sequim, Washington served as a legislative page the week of January 16, 2012.
Welcome, 24th District Constituents!
It’s a privilege to be your state representative, and I thank you for entrusting me with the job.
Because Washington state has a part-time Legislature, I spend most of the year at home in the district, where I am a firefighter, father, husband and community member. I am keenly aware of the challenges facing hardworking families today, and I take your personal stories and feedback into consideration when voting on legislation here in Olympia.
For democracy to work, it takes everyone’s participation. I invite you to familiarize yourself with our state legislative process. Within this web site, you can find links to legislation I’m sponsoring, my voting record, and a way to contact me with your concerns via email. If you are considering coming to Olympia during the Legislative Session, please contact my office at (360) 786-7916 so that my assistant, Linda Barnfather, can schedule a time when I can meet personally with you. Ultimately, I am here to work for you, so I want to be open and accessible to you.
Thank you for stopping by my web site.
Sincerely,
Rep. Kevin Van De Wege
