Referendum 71 Is All about Fairness
I have been a lifetime Washingtonian. Though I have traveled the world, this is the state my family has called home since the 1850s.
I am a conservative. I work hard and believe everyone should work and earn their way. I have a strong belief in God and enjoy a country that provides freedom for our religious beliefs.
I believe in family as the most important part of our lives; we must be there for our children and their children. I have supported my country in good times and bad — spending more than a year in Iraq and supporting recovery here in the U.S. in time of floods and hurricanes. My partner is not covered while I am gone, and if something happens to me, I worry about my family.
I have been overjoyed by the few protections we have gotten in the past few years. I was humbled by the state’s expansion of the rights and sadden by those that see it as a threat to their families.
Please join me and my family in approving Referendum 71.
It shows the respect and love of all families that this great state has for everyone. It is the spirit of Washington. We don’t have to share the same beliefs, but we should all support the liberty that this great country provides to all and extend that fairness to all of Washington’s families.
Approve fairness to all — approve Referendum 71.
