Representative Jim Moeller
Read the text of a live chat with State Rep. Jim Moeller on Columbian.com. The event drew more than 70 participants who asked questions about the recent legalization of same-sex marriage in Washington as well as other state and local issues.
As we enter the 2012 election season, watch this page for news and information from the Jim Moeller for State Representative campaign.
Jim has represented the 49th district since 2003. Today, Jim is Speaker Pro Tempore of the House, the second highest leadership position in that chamber. Jim represents our district in the House, as well as on the House Health Care & Wellness, Labor & Workforce Development, and Transportation committees. As a senior member of the House leadership, Jim also sits on the Rules committee, which helps manage the law making process.
A principled leader that has never allowed polls to shape his agenda, Jim is respected and well regarded by both sides of the aisle, allowing him to forge working relationships with fellow representatives from around the state with a diversity of views. As Speaker Pro Tempore, Jim is known for his integrity, fairness to all sides. Often ignored in state politics, Jim’s rising prominence in the House has guaranteed that southwest Washington’s voice is heard in Olympia.
Throughout his career, first on Vancouver’s Council and today in Olympia, Jim has fought for human rights, the needs of working and middle class families, education, and the environment. The economic development of southwest Washington, creating jobs “here” so that you don’t have to drive “there” to earn a living, has been a daily priority throughout his career. Jim works as a health care professional locally, and has made health care, the protection of vulnerable adults and the needs of veterans, as special concerns of his.
Jim’s motto in his very first election remains the same today: It’s all about us!
