Democrats double down on bad policies, Republicans fight for affordability and safety
During this week’s Republican media availability, House and Senate Republican leaders emphasized their commitment to public safety, housing affordability, and responsible budgeting. They criticized the Democratic majority’s push for rent control, warning it would drive developers out of the state and worsen the housing crisis. Leaders also raised concerns about Democratic proposals that prioritize criminals over victims and make Washington less affordable for working families. As the legislative session progresses, Republicans remain focused on solutions that lower costs, improve public safety, and ensure responsible governance.
