“Guess she didn’t move East for her health…” - Shift WA

“It turns out that political lifer Lisa Brown had a different reason last year for having taxpayers move her state Commerce Department office from Olympia to Spokane – it was so taxpayers could help finance her preparations for yet another political campaign, which she announced today. The former state legislator (20 years) and congressional wannabe (lost in 2018) wasted no time after leaving the make-work Commerce Department post Jay Inslee appointed her to after her last loss to launch another effort to secure a taxpayer-funded paycheck. As the folks at Spokane’s Good Government Alliance point out, “Brown may have a Spokane address, but her beliefs on critical issues make it clear that she really only prioritizes the parts of Washington State that can be viewed from the top of the Space Needle.” (KHQ, Spokane Good Government Alliance)” - Shift WA
