Shea has delivered
While our economy flounders and the Middle East lights up like a Christmas tree, Congress takes a much-needed break from one of the least productive sessions in American history. It’s good to know that at least on a local level we have someone who is committed to representing their district: Matt Shea.
Matt was voted Rookie Representative of the Year in 2008; he was instrumental in ensuring violent offenders can no longer go on field trips to the Spokane County Fair, and his recommendation to revamp the Washington Department of Labor and Industries is expected to save the state around $1 billion.
Matt is a solid conservative and has been given a 100 percent by the National Rifle Association and CAPR (Citizens Alliance for Property Rights) for defending property rights. He has the endorsement of the Washington Council of Police and Sheriffs.
Matt is a tireless worker for the 4th Legislative District and a strong voice for us in the House. In this time of uncertainty, we need a voice of consistency and reason. We need Shea. Please vote for Matt Shea this November.
