Putting our values into action

Cathy McMorris Rodgers represents our 5th Congressional District with strength, courage and vision.

On issues vital to those of us who live here she has led from the front, always searching for ways to improve our quality of life and then converting those ideas into meaningful public policy. We send her to Washington, D.C., to pass laws that put our values into action and that’s what Cathy has done with honor and distinction.

At this turbulent time in America it is vital that our leaders be people of grace, wisdom, and integrity. That’s exactly what we get from Cathy. I hope you’ll join me in enthusiastically voting for her.
