Vote for Hansen in State House race | Letter


October 26, 2012 · 5:32 PM

I am writing to whole-heartedly endorse State Representative Drew Hansen for election to a full term to represent the 23rd District in the Washington State legislature.

Drew’s background on the Olympic College foundation board, along with his service on the Community Economic Revitalization Board, provide exactly the kind of hands-on experience that our elected officials need as our state continues to move forward.

Drew has already distinguished himself as a hard-working legislator during his brief tenure. Drew sponsored a bill to help veterans re-enter the civilian workforce, a bill to expand the Olympic College engineering program, and a bill that removed a tax barrier to promote job growth in Kitsap County.

A vote for Drew Hansen is a vote for a capable and proven leader.
