support free markets. Voters have said the status quo is unacceptable and new
leadership is needed. I will ensure fairness and keep taxes low so you keep
more of your paycheck."
Phillip is pa**ionate, qualified, and ready. As an investigative journalist,
Phillip defended the freedom of speech and covered stories from 9/11 to the
financial crisis. He's asked hard questions of politicians and CEOs focusing on
the truth. After the financial crisis,
Phillip successfully led the fight helping bank customers and retirees recover
$1.8 billion for 43,000 people. He has the experience and character to fight
for us!
Phillip will work with community leaders to create jobs, find solutions to our
transportation mess, and prioritize improving our schools. As a father of three
girls, these are his personal priorities.
He'll expand opportunities in Eastern and Western Washington by leading on
trade and development. He is a strong supporter of fiscally responsible leaders
including Rob McKenna, Dino Rossi, and Congresswoman Cathy McMorris Rogers.
Phillip is grateful to be endorsed by numerous current and formerly elected
officials for his dedication and strong family values. #YinItToWinIt!
