“My job is taking your voice to Congress,” states Rep. Jaime Herrera Beutler, R-Battle Ground. But she’s done nothing yet to represent the majority in District 3 who voted in 2016 to pass Initiative 735 (Get Big Money out of Elections).
Voting against proposed solution H.R. 1, she said, “Who on Earth thinks we don’t have enough money in politics?” Maybe she agrees with the 66 percent of Republicans and 85 percent of Democrats who support overturning Citizens United.
How does she propose to make our voices equivalent to those of the super-rich and dark money groups who spent $1.4 billion in the 2016 elections? Will she now fulfill her promise to take our voice to Congress by co-sponsoring H.J.Res. 48 (U.S. Rights are for people — not corporations, and money is not free speech)?
We need a representative who responds to the needs of the people — one who will change a corrupt political system controlled by the wealthy and one who will give power back to “We the People.” Make your voice heard and contact her to act in support of this critical issue that underlies the integrity of our democracy.
