Barbara Whitt 46th Legislative District Democrats October 2014 www.46DEMS.org General Meeting Thursday, October 16th Sign-in: 7:00pm Meeting: 7:30pm Meet Your Board Member - Barbara Whitt As a member of the Howard Dean Wing of the Democratic Party, I enthusiastically came to politics after watching Howards first debate with John Kerry. He spoke plainly and truthfully and I was mightily impressed. Then I saw “the speech”! WOW O WOW! Where do I sign up! We were still meeting in the church at that time and I came to my very first meeting and turned in my slip with 10 signatures from my neighbors showing that I had support to be their PCO, stood in front of the meeting along with some other brave souls and thus started my political journey. I later ran for Sargent at Arms because I could think of no more fulfilling position within the 46th than that of keeping the coffee hot and the refreshments fresh. With my Trusty Sidekick, Burt Webb, I have been doing this for 10 years. Fortunately during that time, we have not really had a need for the Sargent at Arms to have to perform the actual du- ties of the office. My other duties within the 46th have been to make sure the food and drink are plentiful and delicious at our two annual events and to edit the Demogram.

  • Committee Bows to Boeing and Votes Against Bill to Tie $8.7 Billion Tax Breaks to Keeping Jobs in State
    For Immediate Release February 5, 2016 SPEEA and IAM 751 Committee bows to Boeing and votes against bill to tie $8.7 billion tax breaks to keeping jobs in state OLYMPIA – A majority of the Washington State House Finance Committee bowed to The Boeing Company today by voting “no” on HB 2638, which would have tied Washington’s $8.7 billion aerospace tax incentives to jobs. The action denies the state’s House of Representatives a vote on the issue and leaves the aerospace giant free to continue taking tax breaks from Washington, even if it keeps moving jobs out of the state. “The vote today demonstrates the power of corporate influence to overcome what is clearly the will of the people and the intent of the legislation,” said Machinists District 751 President Jon Holden. The Machinists worked hand in hand with the other large union at Boeing, the Society of Professional Engineering Employees in Aerospace (SPEEA), IFPTE Local 2001, to push for legislation that stopped Boeing from receiving the full tax break and then actively moving jobs out of the state. The legislation was approved during a Special Session in November 2013 to “maintain and grow” the state’s aerospace workforce. Since then, Boeing has shed 4,057 jobs in Washington. “It is vastly disappointing to see some legislators ignore their colleagues and their constituents so blatantly,” said SPEEA President Ryan Rule. “With more than 4,000 jobs lost – including nearly 3,000 good engineering and technical jobs already moved from Washington since aerospace incentives were extended; how many more jobs must be lost before something is done?” The union presidents thanked the Committee members who supported and recognized the call from taxpayers to hold Boeing and the aerospace industry accountable for the financial support provided by the state.

These infrastructure investments—in things like mass transit, vehicle and ferry electrification, clean buildings, and more—are a bedrock to our state’s competitive edge. Washington State is also experiencing extreme and historic heat waves and drought conditions. We are at severe risk of a wildfire season even worse than last year, and many of the federal hydropower dams that are an essential component of our region’s infrastructure are likely to produce significantly less of the clean power that our economy relies. Climate policy is economic policy and the historic commitments Washington State has made will help protect the health and wealth of our state for generations.
