Collapse all
|Cyndy roots are deep in the 25th. She has lived here for over three decades, raised seven children and now has grandchildren growing up close to home. Cyndy also teaches math at Pierce College. As we make hard decisions during this time of crisis in our state, we need wise leaders who are principled money managers and who will listen to the will of the voters. We must get people back to school and work, address equitable traffic funding and job growth south of Seattle, and provide solutions for homelessness that are compassionate while requiring accountability. Let's get to work.
"I am a teacher, a grandma, and a lifelong Washingtonian who wants a bright future for the next generation. I respectfully ask for your vote." -Cyndy.
- Hold the line on taxes! Listen! The voters have repeatedly rejected an income tax and a carbon tax. The voters of the 25th voted 71% in favor of the $30 car tabs. They also voted in similar fashion on the advisory votes. The voters of the 25th do not want tax increases. We need to fund our priorities without raising taxes.
- Get out of the way of the entrepreneurial spirit and promote economic development. We need to get out of the way of economic development in this state by removing as much bureaucracy as possible. Jobs close to home will get people out of traffic and home to their families.
- Homelessness and the dual problems of mental health and addiction need compassionate but logical policy decisions. It is not compassionate to allow those who are mentally ill to sleep on the streets without getting them the treatement the need. Provide enough beds for treating addiction so that those who request help can get it.
I am passionate about holding the line on taxes because families who are struggling do not need the legislature to default to new taxes instead of budgeting carefully.

Scorecards
A scorecard evaluates a legislator’s voting record. Its purpose is to inform voters about the legislator’s political positions. Because scorecards have varying purposes and methodologies, each report should be considered on its own merits. For example, an advocacy group’s scorecard may assess a legislator’s voting record on one issue while a state newspaper’s scorecard may evaluate the voting record in its entirety.
Ballotpedia is in the process of developing an encyclopedic list of published scorecards. Some states have a limited number of available scorecards or scorecards produced only by select groups. It is Ballotpedia’s goal to incorporate all available scorecards regardless of ideology or number.
