“Statement I’ve prioritized the health and safety of our families and communities, passing laws that reduce gun violence, improve police training and trust, and address root causes of crime. Committed to addressing affordability, I’ve delivered resources for housing and childcare, reduced small business taxes, and expanded working family tax credits.”
(WA Secretary of State 2026 General Election Voters' Pamphlet) “In addition to my prior work as a nonprofit director, I am a small business owner and manage a complex household budget. I understand the pressures facing local families, the need to maximize resources, and efficient delivery of services.”
(Campaign website (electjamilataylor.com)) “Throughout my career I’ve addressed challenges within the public safety continuum — from preventing youth violence to advocating for the safety of domestic violence survivors and seniors at risk of exploitation. Excessive policing and incarceration should not be the community solution to a problem that has roots in systemic inequity and a lack of social resources.”
