Gubernatorial candidate headlines Republican women's meeting

MOSES LAKE — Bill Bryant, Republican candidate for governor, will be the guest speaker at the May meeting of the Republican Women of Grant County, scheduled for 6 p.m. Monday at the Moses Lake Senior Center, 608 East Third Ave.

Bryant is a former commissioner for the Port of Seattle/King County and is chairman of BCI, a tree fruit export business based in Yakima and Seattle. He visited Grant County last week, meeting with service clubs in Quincy and touring Wanapum Dam.

The meeting also includes an update on a citizen’s initiative to roll back a decision by the Washington Human Rights Commission on transgender accommodation. A representative from the “Just Want Privacy” committee will provide information on the issue and the committee’s sponsorship of the initiative, I-1515.

The public is invited.
