2024 WA Governor's race: on Budget & Economy


Dave Reichert: Focus on lowering gas prices and property taxes

We currently compete with California for having the highest gas prices in the nation. Health insurance and property taxes are through the roof. And the cost of food, driven by inflation, is putting a squeeze on people who simply can't afford it.

This is punishing families, hurting small businesses, and forcing countless numbers of citizens to leave our state. All the people are asking for is just a little relief and reprieve.

Unfortunately, many in Olympia continue to push policies that punish people at the pump, crush consumers at the store, and burden families with bills they simply can't pay. As Governor, we will work together to change all this and make our state an affordable place to work and live.
