Background:

Retired civil servant; Co-chair of Progressive Party of Washington State for several years. I conduct dog rescues alone and in cooperation with groups. I'm married and live with my wife, Sigrid in Puyallup, Washington.

Goals:

I hadn't really pictured myself in a candidate role until recently. I'm fed up with being lied and pandered to while we spend money we don't have on war, and not any number of domestic issues. Now that I have a bit more time to devote, and a little more wisdom (I think), My state can benefit from my experiences and point of view.

Issues:

The Progressive Party and I stand for a living wage, strengthening labor unions, limiting corporate welfare programs, and empowering individuals with the right to vote, and to have that vote counted properly. You can visit the Progressive Party website for a more extensive platform: www.waprogparty.org

Grassroots Support:

This campaign is on a very small budget, and is strictly grassroots.

DFA Values:

Not supporting the richest one percent and the largest corporations while the rest of the economy tanks, for one.
