Redmond, WA –Dino Rossi spokesperson Jill Strait released the following statement tonight in response to Christine Gregoire’s State of the State address: “Christine Gregoire only told half of the story tonight. She continues to ignore her massive increases in state spending, the looming deficit, our transportation crisis, failures in education, and the inability to keep children in our neighborhoods and state care safe. The incumbent proved she knows how to talk as though she’s a fiscal conservative, but actions speak louder than words. She also keeps punting on important issues until after the next election. People are tired of waiting. Dino Rossi will bring real leadership to Olympia, change the culture of state government, and make Washington stronger for future generations.”
