Rep. Mike Sells

February 2, 2012 – Legislative Update

Welcome to my website!

Thanks for stopping by. I hope you find this web page to be a valuable resource that will encourage you to become involved with the State Legislature.

I am honored and proud to represent the 38^th Legislative District, serving the citizens of Everett, Marysville, and Tulalip.

You’ll probably agree with me that right now the most important issue to address is the economy. Our state is facing an unprecedented budget shortfall that has left many hard-working people surviving on unemployment insurance, as well as families and seniors with limited or no access to crucial services.

As the first chair of the new Labor and Workforce Development Committee, I will look closely at ways to improve our business climate, which will lead to good jobs now and down the road. I will make sure we work on sound policy that protects workers’ safety and rights and, as a member of the Higher Education Committee I will continue to work toward creating greater access to higher education opportunities. We need to build the kind of quality training programs that ensure economic success. Our citizens deserve a chance to gain the lasting, relevant skills they need to pursue low-turnover, high-paying careers.

The most important job I have is to listen to what the people of my district have to say. I always welcome your comments and questions. Please feel free to contact me with your opinions about the information you find on this web page – or anything else going on in state government.

Best wishes,

Rep. Mike Sells

State Representative
38th District
