Doug Basler, candidate for Congress WA District 9

I believe public service should be like "jury duty", regular people like you and I should go and serve for a while, then return home and live under the laws we helped pass. That's real accountability. Career politicians are the biggest problem in government today. This has been demonstrated in real time with the handling of the coronavirus lockdowns. The good intentions that started the process quickly devolved into political favoritism and opportunities to advance agendas. This should never happen in an emergency or any other time. The "suspension" of our civil rights is an outrage and no freedom loving American should ever stand for it. I will always fight to defend your God given,
constitutionally protected rights. I will fight to keep you free to live your life as you see fit and to keep you free from unnecessary government interference in your home, place of worship, and schools.
