NINTH DISTRICT

On August 18th voters in the 9th District will be asked to cast their vote for State Representative. Pat Hailey is the candidate we are supporting for agriculture.

Agriculture is the number one industry in the 9th District and is the “stimulus” for the economic health of our district and our state.

Our state legislature continues to lose “real” ag people. It’s important to elect someone who understands farming and who is actively in farming today.

Pat Hailey understands how taxes and unnecessary regulations can affect a farmer’s ability to produce crops and raise livestock. Pat owns and operates her family’s farm. She knows personally the effect of poor legislation on her own farm and how it affects her farming neighbors.

Pat has old-fashion values, strong leadership skills, business acumen, the desire, commitment and ability to serve her constituents effectively.

We ask you to join us in voting for Pat Hailey to represent us. She has the agricultural experience we need in Olympia.
