BIRD

GOVERNOR FOR ALL OF WASHINGTON
UNITED WE STAND - TOGETHER WE CAN
SEND COREY
UNITED WE STAND, TOGETHER WE CAN
FOR ALL OF WASHINGTON

UNITED WE STAND - TOGETHER WE CAN

It's a NEW DAY in Washington! The people of this great state are eager for accountability in its leadership, to help bring about positive change for all. We are not just stronger, but far more effective, when we work together as Washingtonians to create actionable solutions.

PLEDGE

ACCOUNTABILITY, TRANSPARENCY & STEWARDSHIP

MY pledge

The state government must exercise good stewardship of the public trust and state resources, by ensuring operational excellence and performance accountability to the citizens it serves.
I pledge to ensure government accountability and transparency for the citizens of Washington State.
I pledge to initiate a third-party, government-wide audit and assessment of all state offices and programs to ensure fiscal and programmatic performance, and report all findings with (sensible solutions) to the public.
I pledge to develop and implement a thoughtful state-wide strategy to help ensure that all state offices operate proactively to our issues; not reactively. This will promote the growth of fiscally responsible plans and guarantee optimal performance as a result.

WASHINGTON FIRST, WASHINGTON STRONG

CREATING ECONOMIC VALUE AND OPPORTUNITY FOR ALL
As Washington families struggle to make ends meet in a failing economy rot with unprecedented inflation and high costs of goods, our current State leadership continues to spend excessively and tax Washingtonians unfairly.  We will;
  • Provide tax relief to Washingtonians.
  • Initiate budget accountability protocols to reduce spending.
  • Restructure our welfare infrastructure from a hand-out to a hand-up system.
  • Incentivize small business development for ALL.
  • Create opportunity zones in under-represented communities.
  • Create anti-malware technology that anticipates what’s coming from our enemies
  • Secure a way to prevent the collapse of our tech and defense network from an EMP attack
RESTORING THE RULE OF LAW & SAFE COMMUNITIES
As lawlessness overtakes our rural and urban communities, state leaders continue to undermine our law enforcement professionals with reckless policies. We will;
  • Enhance community policing to establish trust and collaboration as a holistic approach to neighborhood public safety.
  • Fully fund state police and increase the number of law enforcement officers with competitive salaries and hiring bonuses.
  • Work with local, state, and federal authorities to prevent the deadly threat of drugs such as fentanyl, from reaching our rural and urban streets.
  • Hold County Prosecutors accountable for enforcing the rule of law and, partner with Sheriffs and other local law enforcement leaders to reauthorize law enforcement across the state.
  • We will tackle mental health and addiction; the root cause homelessness, by focusing our efforts on compassionate, comprehensive treatment programs and infrastructure. 
  • Create anti-malware technology that anticipates what’s coming from our enemies
  • Secure a way to prevent the collapse of our tech and defense network from an EMP attack
ENSURING QUALITY IN EDUCATION
Washington State law (RCW 28A.150.22) requires that all children, ages 8-18 receive a quality education. According to the Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction, less than 50% of Washington students have met grade level standards in English and language arts, math, and science. We will;
  • Ensure parents and families are not marginalized or isolated from their children’s education. Parents and families play the most important role in a child’s upbringing and education.
  • Facilitate School choice to ensure that all families have access to quality education systems, included but not limited to public, charter, private, and home schools. 
  • Ensure that all Washington schools are held accountable for student education outcomes, through responsible oversight and performance requirements.
  • Conduct a comprehensive audit/assessment of the Washington State education system to evaluate the root causes of learning loss and develop a solutions-based strategy for academic performance improvement.
FACILITATING FOOD AND ENERGY SECURITY
Washingtonians must have access to reliable and sufficient quantities of affordable, nutritious food, and similarly, require equal access to reliable and sustainable energy sources. We will;
  • Partner with Washington State farmers and ranchers to identify and mitigate regulatory barriers which may compromise generations of commitment to feeding our state and the world at large.
  • Prioritize the water and land rights of farmers and ranchers, while facilitating ecological stewardship of our environment.
  • Lawfully prevent foreign acquisitions of Washington State lands.
  • Utilize clean nuclear energy technology to maximize energy independence.
  • Establish a memorandum of understanding with the Department of Energy to maximize local energy resources, such as hydroelectricity. 
  • Create anti-malware technology that anticipates what’s coming from our enemies
  • Secure a way to prevent the collapse of our tech and defense network from an EMP attack

THE AMERICAN STORY

FAMILY VALUES

Semi Bird is a career American who has spent a lifetime in service to his country and community. Semi started his life's journey in the ghetto of East Oakland, California. He was born to a single mother of seven children, prior to the passing of the Civil Rights Act.
‍
Semi's mother ensured that Semi was raised in a Christian environment and held accountable for his actions. Victim behavior was not tolerated in the household because Mrs. Bird wanted her children to become strong and resilient members of society.
‍
Semi struggled in school, K-12 and dropped out of high school after completing his junior year to enlist in the United States Marine Corps. He would later enlist in the United States Army in 2001.
FAMILY VALUES
‍
Semi Bird is a career American who has spent a lifetime in service to his country and community. Semi started his life's journey in the ghetto of East Oakland, California. He was born to a single mother of seven children, prior to the passing of the Civil Rights Act.
‍
Semi's mother raised him in a Christian environment, where he was always held accountable for his actions. 'Victim mentality' was not to be tolerated in her household for the simple reason that Mrs. Bird believed firmly in taking control of one's own destiny despite outside circumstances. In her eyes, this would ensure Semi and his siblings' growth into strong, independent, resilient, and positive-contributing members of society.
‍
Though Semi struggled in K-12 and dropped out of high school after completing his junior year, he enlisted in the United States Marine Corps, knowing that if he wasn't furthering his education, he better be prepared to make something of himself, some way, somehow. This set him on a path where he'd eventually enroll in the U.S. Army in 2001. From there, despite his lack of schooling, he had positioned himself for a bright future. And that is all his mother had ever hoped for: a child who could take care of himself in this tough world.
"When you end your life's journey and you want to know who was responsible for your success or failure, look in the mirror."
‍
- Semi's Mother, Rosa

WE MUST TAKE OUR COUNTRY BACK

The battle for the soul of our nation is no longer at our doorstep. It’s now in our living room, relaxing on the couch, making itself right at home. This requires action from every patriotic American who values freedom. I ask every American to take this pledge with me, made famous by Ronald Reagan during his first inaugural address.

AMERICA FIRST

Yes, America First! We must finish the work President Donald Trump started. He showed us how hard we should expect our leaders to work and how unwavering we must be in our fight against the political, media and tech elites. In our district, American and Trump flags are still proudly flying throughout neighborhoods and farms. He gave us hope, and I will fight to build and improve upon his progress and success.
