Adams for Washington: Unlocking Potential, Together
Maggie's Priorities
I believe that every person has a right to healthcare, education, and a healthy environment in which to live their best life. As your State Representative for WA Legislative District 12, I would work hard to ensure that every Washingtonian has access to these necessities to build the groundwork for a better, brighter Washington. If you have ideas or suggestions, feel free to contact us; I'm here to listen and collaborate with you.
I am a working parent and a proud Union worker. As a current member of Actor's Equity Association and the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees (IATSE) Local #887, I have worked on the front lines of the battle for worker's rights, fair pay, and a reliable social safety net. Everyone should have the opportunity to earn a living wage in a safe workplace free from harassment and exploitation. Together, we are launching soon into a future where everyone is supported in their pursuit of a dignified life.
Healthcare
Accessible, comprehensive healthcare is a fundamental human right. Washington leads the nation in medical innovation and research, and our residents should also lead the nation in access to healthcare and top-notch medical professionals. Unfortunately, Washingtonians' access to medical treatment is often determined by their location on the map. If elected, I will work to bring access to full, comprehensive healthcare to every corner of the state. For more information about our efforts, please contact us as we prepare for this initiative, launching soon.
Education
Education is the foundation for a thriving society, and teachers are the most important building block of a world-class education system. Our educators and support staff deserve good wages, excellent facilities, and safe working conditions so they can do their best work. As we are launching soon our initiative to enhance these standards, we encourage everyone to contact us. Our students of all ages should have the opportunity to explore their potential and access higher learning, regardless of economic status or origin.
Environment
We are blessed to live in a state as beautiful as Washington, and it is our duty to be responsible stewards of this land. From our farmlands to the towns, District 12 encompasses wild spaces, agricultural enterprises, and growing suburban communities that all rely on our natural resources. As we enter our fourth consecutive year of drought, it is critical to prioritize water conservation and create regulations that protect the water we need to survive. Our communities and farmers should have top priority for water resources—especially with data centers and out-of-state energy companies launching soon. If you would like to learn more about how you can help or if you have any questions, please contact us.
Power to the People
I believe in an America that is of, for and by the people. Our forefathers gifted us with a Constitution that is meant to be amended, ensuring that the people living here are never subject to the whims of Lords and Kings. They established a House represented by the populace, not by the landed gentry.
Serving in elected office is a public service and should have a clear beginning and end. Serving in Congress and the state legislature should not be a decades-long career; it should involve a limited term of service. As we work towards these changes, we encourage you to contact us for more information.
I support a constitutional amendment to impose term limits on elected offices and length of service limits on federal judiciary positions. Our initiative for these reforms is launching soon, and your input is valuable in this process.
Power to the Youth
Another fundamental principle of America is the idea of No Taxation Without Representation. Teenage workers in Washington pay taxes on their wages and do not get a say in how their tax dollars are spent. We entrust our young workers with so much, yet we shut them out from democracy. As we're launching soon with initiatives to address this, I support an amendment to Washington's Constitution to lower the voting age to 16 in state and local elections. If you share this vision, please contact us.
