Washington State has not had a Republican governor for over forty years. FORTY YEARS! Today, I’m joined by the man who I believe could end the string of bad leaders in our state. Dave Reichert is running to bring hope and common sense back to Washington State, and the stakes have never been higher. Listen in as we go beyond the rhetoric to the real issues we’re facing here and around the nation. We’ve been struggling for a long time with high taxes, bad legislation and over-regulation in Washington, but it doesn’t have to be this way. Together, we can change what’s wrong, fix what’s broken and do what’s right for Washington.

Meet The Guest
Dave Reichert had a distinguished 33-year law enforcement career at the King County Sheriff’s
Office, starting as a beat cop and later becoming appointed and elected King County Sheriff,
leading the 1,200-person organization for eight years. Reichert worked as the lead investigator
on the Green River serial killer case where young women were murdered during the 1980s. In
2004, he was honored with the National Sheriffs Associations, Sheriff of the Year award.
In 2004, Reichert ran and won election to Washington’s 8th Congressional District and would go
on to win a total of 7 terms in Congress. Dave is undefeated at the ballot box. Reichert was
honored to be just a handful of freshman members of congress at the time selected to chair a
subcommittee and was respected by members on both sides of the aisle for his willingness to
listen and work to find common sense solutions to real problems. During his time in Congress,
Reichert helped in emergency preparedness, tax reform, expanding trade opportunities for our
farmers and small businesses, giving police the support they deserve, helping foster youth and
combating sex trafficking.
After retiring from Congress in 2019 Reichert has also been instrumental in helping law
enforcement across the country obtain Rapid DNA technology, which provides a DNA profile in
just 90 minutes and has been working on ending human trafficking in Central America and is
back to help show Washington there’s a way forward to fix what’s broken.
