From State Senator Kevin Ranker’s office
“The purpose of a state highway system is for all the people of Washington State to benefit. We must remember that thousands of Washingtonians depend upon ferries to get them to work, school or to receive medical care. Ensuring a high level of service is critical in these economic times.
“I believe that we are one state united in commerce, recreation, and trade. I do not believe that regionalizing our transportation system will help us emerge stronger and more united from this recession. The working families I represent deserve the same support for their transportation needs as working families across the state. I will continue to work with the Governor to develop solutions that will provide the necessary infrastructure for all communities to benefit.”
