Statement: Marco Padilla is an Immigrant, Navy Veteran, & Doctoral candidate. His campaign is based on a drive to put "People Over Party". It represents a message of Unity, Civility and Common Sense policy making that is badly needed in Olympia.

As an Independent legislator, Marco will represent the people, not a party agenda nor special interest by not caucasing with any party. He understands that our community is ever-changing, and with your support, today we begin a political revolution to transform District 26: Economically, Politically, and Socially.
