In search of the miraculous. said...

We really need help to vet these folks, even if the position is said to be non-partisan - we know better.
We know for a fact that our communities will only start surviving when we get more money into the hands of all the people, livable wage, rent control, universal health care, fully funded education. We also know that the all of our newly created wealth in Washington State goes to the 16 billionaires and 68,000 millionaires, while poverty, homeless, and hunger has increased. We now have 40,000 homeless children a year - every elected official should be ashamed. For those that will do what it takes to serve all of us, we will support you. Start today.
