Join Bruce’s Fight to Restore Washington!
August 19, 2010
Dear Friend,
My name is Bruce Chandler and I am your state representative for House District 15. I am again running election and ask that you join our campaign to continue working for you.
Currently, we face the most challenging time in a generation as our small businesses and working families struggle to survive in this economy. As an owner and operator of a commercial fruit orchard, I know firsthand how difficult it can be to make ends meet. While Washington state has fared better than other states, it has affected everyone in every community. If we face these challenges by reforming government, restoring our economy and supporting our communities Washington will emerge as a leading economy in the West.
In particular, my stance on specific issues are as follows:
Reforming State Government
Government must live within its means. That is why I fought against the repeal of the Taxpayer Protection Act and opposed a state budget that spends much more than the state will receive in tax revenue. People are understandably demanding more open, accessible government. The legislative process must become more public and in a manner that convinces constituents they are being heard.
Creating Local Jobs
Today, over 310,000 Washingtonians are out of work. In Clark and Skamania county the unemployment rates exceeds 12 percent. What have our leaders in Olympia done to help put people back to work? Raise taxes.
I don’t beleive in taxing our way out of this recession. That is why I opposed the laundry list of tax increases (17 taxes out of more than 90 that were proposed). We must ensure access to adequate, affordable water and energy supplies.We must allow our working families and small businesses to keep more of their hard earned money to sustain themselves during this current time and invest for the future.

Supporting Our Communities
We must continue to make our communities safe and provide basic services and infrastructure. We were successful in passing legislation to fight the scourge of gangs. I fought against diverting money from the Public Works Trust Fund (intended for local infrastructure projects) into the General Fund to pay for more government programs.
Now that I have highlighted several issues I find important to our state, I am interested in hearing your thoughts and concerns! You can send me questions or comments by clicking on the link under “Questions or Concerns” located on the sidebar of my newsletter.
Thank you very much and I look forward to continuing serving you and the state of Washington.
