We’ve lived in Snohomish County for over 30 years, experienced a methamphetamine house, reside in a nice neighborhood and now find several other drug houses are blocks away.
Due to extremely poor politics and government leadership, drug criminals have been allowed to set up shop and terrorize communities, resulting in disastrous citizen public safety. Officials have turned a blind eye by not funding adequate police protection, prosecution or jail time. As a result of inconsistent practices and laws, many criminals are back on the streets in hours. Innocent citizens have died and many have been mentally maimed by methamphetamine for life. Identity theft, caused by these addicts and used to gain access to our resources, is plaguing everyone and costing millions annually.
Thanks to past politicians, their unfriendly business climate has forced small businesses out and big business like Boeing to continue layoffs. As a result, Snohomish County has high unemployment and Washington State has one of the highest rates in the nation.
A fresh, new candidate named Betty Neighbors has stepped into the arena. She has worked with Citizens for a Safe Snohomish County, pinpointing many ills in our government and finding solutions. If elected as county executive, Betty has vowed to help stop Snohomish County’s immense drug epidemic, fix law and justice problems, restructure government and get our county working again.
She is a non-politician with over 20 years of successful business experience who is against Sound Transit (Dave Earling’s pet) because it is a huge waste of taxes and it does nothing to fix Snohomish County traffic.
Betty is pro business and will get Snohomish County back on track by streamlining interaction with business, helping our county become an advocate for jobs and working to encourage economic growth.
Betty Neighbors is the most qualified candidate who will utilize every tax dollar for simple, cost-effective solutions, as Snohomish County’s next executive.
