Editor:

As judges, we see every day how much dedication it takes to serve the public fairly and uphold the rule of law. Judge Tam Bui is one of the hardest-working and most principled public servants we know. She treats every person with dignity, listens carefully and makes decisions grounded in both common sense and compassion.

Judge Bui has devoted her career to strengthening public trust in the courts. She mentors young people, teaches civics, and serves on multiple statewide committees that improve accountability, transparency and access to justice. Her integrity and work ethic have earned the unanimous support of the Snohomish County District Court bench and the overwhelming endorsement of judges statewide, including seven of nine Washington Supreme Court justices. Over 150 Washington judges have endorsed her – more than twice as many as her opponent.

Judges know what it takes to do this job right. For fairness, balance and dedication to the Constitution, we urge you to support Judge Tam Bui for the Court of Appeals.

  1. Judge Tam Bui officiated at our wedding this past July. I was impressed with her graciousness, her kindness and her dedication to doing a professional and touching civil ceremony. In addition to her many years of public service, I would add that on a personal note she is a lovely human being.

  2. Judge Bui will be an excellent addition to the Court of Appeals bench. I’m proud to be one of a large number of lawyers and judicial officers endorsing her.
