John,

Our team is proud to have earned the endorsement of WA's National Women’s Political Caucus. Hilary is the only woman in the race, and some career politicians - primarily men - are telling her to wait her turn. But Hilary has been told that before. If you believe Washington needs a governor with her perspective and experiences to tackle our most pressing issues, please chip in now.

This endorsement underscores the exact qualifications and identities Hilary holds that make her such an incredible candidate for governor.

1. Washington is one of the country's most progressive states. Still, we’ve only ever elected two women for governor. Hilary would bring a much-needed perspective as a mother who had to find affordable childcare while trying to balance a career, all while also caring for an aging father. It’s an experience so many in Washington share.


2. Talk is cheap, but Hilary doesn’t plan on just talking about women’s health. She has plans to address these problems. As the only woman in the race, she’s the only one who knows firsthand how critical it is to protect women’s health and reproductive freedom. And, because of her record tackling forest fires and strengthening Washington’s climate resilience, we can trust her to keep the promises she makes.


3. Did we mention she is a mother of three boys? She knows how to handle disagreements. That’s how she’s won support from both parties on policy victories like funding wildfire fighting and preparation and building climate resilience. She knows how to bring conflicting viewpoints together and drive toward a solution. Not by compromising her progressive values but by never giving up on trying to win people over.

Hilary is, plain and simple, the best person for this job. If you believe in effective leadership, we hope you will consider contributing today. The path to victory is long, but it is possible with the support of grassroots donors like you.

We appreciate you standing with us,
Team Franz
