Incumbent Rep. Joe Fitzgibbon is running for another term in Legislative District 34, House Position 2. He was first elected to the position in 2010 and has also worked as a legislative staffer and Burien planning commissioner. In his tenure in the House, Fitzgibbon has been an exceptionally strong environmental advocate, helping Washington fight greenhouse gas emissions, keep air and water clean, reduce pollution, and protect salmon populations. Previously, he was a secondary sponsor on the zero-emission school bus bill to provide sustainable and reliable transportation for Washington students. In addition, Fitzgibbon was a primary sponsor of legislation to help the state meet its climate goals to create a green future for generations to come. This past session, Fitzgibbon was the primary sponsor of the House bill to establish the Millionaires Tax, which will fund education, help the state provide free school lunches, and expand eligibility for the Working Families Tax Credit. The tax is a significant step towards balancing our regressive tax code and ensuring the wealthy few pay what they owe. Fitzgibbon continues to champion environmental protections, labor rights, and public transportation. Rep. Fitzgibbon has been one of the most effective progressive legislators in Olympia and has earned your support for another term.
