For too long, short-sighted economic policies have allowed multinational corporations to hollow out America’s middle class from within. Offshoring has stripped away vital manufacturing capabilities, leaving our local economies vulnerable. I believe it is time to reverse this trend. By implementing policy-driven solutions that incentivize domestic production, we can return high-quality jobs to Washington and rebuild our economic independence.

Furthermore, we must shift our economic focus away from Wall Street financiers and billionaires who consolidate wealth at the expense of Main Street. Offshore tax havens create a two-tiered economic system which limits our strategic capacity. My platform calls for addressing the tax problem of the corporate welfare dependents who are costing our country trillions in lost revenue. I will fight for small and medium-sized businesses. These enterprises are the true engines of our economy and the foundation of our local diversity. By lowering regulatory barriers and expanding access to capital for local entrepreneurs, we can foster a diverse, self-sustaining marketplace rooted right here in Washington State.
