Statement: I believe the Port of Vancouver will be the largest economic growth engine on the West Coast. I am running so I can bring my risk management experience and skill set to thoughtfully impact and guide economic development and future growth, while furthering the Port's competitive leadership in the region. My generational plan is about growth in industrial development, importing, and exporting; all which links to the creation of family wage jobs that will favorably impact the development of our community and our students.

The foundation of my program is to promote and encourage five key components leading to growth at the Port of Vancouver Washington. The pillars of my program include: Safety: Ensuring a safe environment for the Port’s operation while encouraging continued development; Clarity: Communicating a clear vision of the future of the Port; Growth: Developing operational policies that continuously encourage business development and family wage job growth; Harmony: Building cooperation and linkage between the environment, business development and community needs in which each supports the other; Education: Expanding a policy that Port businesses contribute to a wide range of business linked educational programs for Vancouver, Clark County & Southwest Washington.

Together, Please Vote Kris Greene.
