Statement:
Our state is facing a financial crisis. We must promote economic growth, encourage job creation, help small businesses, save our failing schools, and reduce taxes. Gary Gagliardi knows what works in the real world – and what doesn’t. Our current bureaucrats and politicians created the fiscal mess in Olympia. Gary can offer constructive solutions to help our families and communities out of that mess.
Gary is a proven leader; an outsider with no vested interest in political causes or special interest groups. He will stand up to the Olympia bureaucracy and take back power for our local communities.
