Dear Republicans,
Be forewarned: If HB 2030 passes in Olympia, even cold-blooded murderers like green-river-killer Gary Ridgeway, who murdered 49 teenage girls, would be able to vote and sit on a jury—and even run for elected office.
According to Brian Hatfield, who testified on behalf of Washington Secretary of State Steve Hobbs, the office’s interpretation of the legislation suggests that people serving felony sentences could run for office.
Redemption is one thing, putting the whole state in harm's way is another.
In addition to our other efforts, our communications team has set-up a petition for you, that when you sign it, will email the four Democrats on the committee currently hearing HB 2030 telling them to stop the bill in committee.
Safety in our neighborhoods is already being destroyed by reckless Democrat policies, and now, if we let cold-blooded murderers, rapists, and criminals serve on juries and as elected officials, from behind prison bars, our entire state will completely dissolve into lawless chaos and destruction.

Not surprisingly, HB 2030 is sponsored by Tarra Simmons (Bremerton), a convicted felon herself, who served 30 months behind bars for retail theft, possession of controlled substances, and firearm crimes - your email will be sent to her as well.
