Eyman’s attack bizarre

The Spokesman-Review

I was disturbed to read Tim Eyman’s bizarre claim that Amber Waldref is a “wacko, Seattle greenie.” Amber grew up and has made her life not just in Spokane, but in the same neighborhood as well, where she serves on that neighborhood council. It would be great to see her continue her legacy of service for the city!

Amber has great kindness and integrity, and it saddens me to see such an attack leveled in her direction. I sincerely hope that Mike Fagan does all he can to refute these attacks. For our City Council race to receive attention in this manner is just not acceptable.

I would encourage anyone to read up on Amber, fact-check and see for yourself where she stands on these issues. She is a wonderful lady, excellent community advocate and will be a welcome addition to the Spokane City Council after the November election.
