In April, 2024 a ClarkCountyToday report shows the new 17th District map ordered by activist Judge Robert Lasnik, just prior to the May candidate filing week. Per the article, “The Lasnik map changes boundaries of 13 legislative districts, redistricting out of current districts multiple republican legislators, including Senator Nikki Torres of Yakima. The initial lawsuit alleged Latino voters were disenfranchised by the map agreed upon by the state redistricting commission. Yet the Lasnik decision resulted in fewer Latino voters in the district.” The new 17th district stretches from Vancouver out to Goldendale in Klickitat County.
Paul Harris has raised five children in Clark County, is state representative in the 17th District (14 years), served 10 years on the Evergreen School Board, and has operated successful businesses. Harris opposes unnecessary tax hikes including the 3% property tax proposed by democrats. He supports I-2117 to Stop the Hidden Gas Tax and I-2066: to Stop the Natural Gas Ban so we can utilize our natural gas infrastructure and keep our gas appliances. Harris is well qualified for senator.
Rep. Kevin Waters (17th District) is a former Skamania County corrections officer, Port of Skamania Commissioner, and a business owner. Reps. Harris and Waters helped secure funding for the 17th District, including: the Hood River Bridge, the downtown Camas Lighting Transformation project, Fire Station 41 headquarters, the Skamania County Public Safety Radio System, the Washougal Intake replacement project to assist fish and wildlife, Lasher Street renovations, and the modernization of small district and tribal compact schools. They also helped secure funding for the Madrona Recovery Center for youth with behavioral health and substance abuse disorders in the 18th district.
Washougal Mayor David Stuebe understands the issues in our region, was a Marine Corps Colonel (30 years), has business experience, and is equipped to serve as state representative. Together, these leaders will ensure the Slough Bridge replacement/repair on SR 14, promised for many years, will be done. In August, a trailer hauling a wide load got stuck on the narrow bridge, 6 cars crashed, and one driver died. They are committed to public safety and law enforcement.
Stuebe’s opponent is Terri Niles, a nurse who pushed new mRNA Covid vaccines with unknown consequences for healthy kids 5 years old and up. Serious injuries and deaths after vaccination for children and teens have been reported to the Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System since 2021. At County Board of Health meetings, Niles championed a COVID Resolution that states, “COVID-19 vaccinations are highly recommended as safe and effective, are widely available at no cost to all residents age five and older.”
A June, 2024 report indicates the Number of Children Who Died After COVID Shots Much Higher Than VAERS Reports Indicate, Analyst Says. This fall , the Florida Health Department advised against using mRNA Covid vaccines for most people. Washington State Law provides for Medical, Religious, and Personal exemptions to opt out of inoculation shots for students in daycare and K-12 schools; see InformedChoiceWA.org for details.
Niles also promoted Clark County Charter amendments on the for committee that voters rejected including: Ranked Choice Voting, adding a Clark County Diversity & Inclusion Officer plus a Diversity & Inclusion Advisory Commission (rejected by voters in 2021 & 2022), and adding the Prosecuting Attorney’s opinion on initiative petitions. For the Nov. 5, 2024 election, See the www.ReformClarkCounty.com recommendations to REJECT Charter Amendments #17 & #18.

Fluoride On Trial: Federal Trial on the Neurotoxicity of Water …
I met Paul Harris a few years back when he tried to pass a bill to fluoridate the rest of WA. I went to his office with Seven other JBS people to speak against his bill. It did not pass but, we knew it could be brought back. His secretary gave us 10 minutes with him, but he graciously gave us one hour! We gave him data and showed him our concerns. He promised he would not bring his fluoridation bill back. He was very polite and listened. I have sent him emails on fluoridation ever since. He was very nice.
Now we need to make him a hero and stop this silly practice of poisoning the water with China’s industrial waste: Sodium Fluoride.
It does lower IQs , causes cancer, arthritis, crippling bone disease, and Alzheimer’s. Clark County Health Board, Vancouver, Battleground council and the Battleground school district has lots of data on public record. Ask their clerks for public record requests on fluoride data. Look at the info commercial for PurDentix. At the end of the commercial they talk about fluoridation. the dental industry makes millions for rotting teeth. If drinking poison was so great, why do people still lose their teeth? False teeth and implants bring in bucks!
