Billig deserves re-election

Incumbent Washington state Sen. Andy Billig gets my vote on November 3 and here’s why.

He was lead sponsor of legislation enacted called Early Childhood Education and Assistance Program (ECEAP) , a Washington state-funded program now up and running and a great success. This is a program that prepares 3- and 4-year old-children from families furthest from opportunity for success in school and in life.

Senator Billig was also instrumental in bringing WSU Medical School to Spokane and the East Central Dental Clinic. He knows his way around Olympia as majority leader of the Senate and knows how to get things done.

Join me in voting in Senator Billig for re-election. He deserves it.
