Gov. Gregoire’s statement on Referendum 71


Gov. Chris Gregoire today issued the following statement on Referendum 71:

“I respect the peoples’ right to place a referendum on the ballot following legislative action. However, I am obviously very disappointed that this message will be debated once again. I signed the original bill and believe it should be and will be the law of our great state. Washington state has a history of fighting to ensure everyone – mothers, fathers, sons, daughters, brothers, sisters – enjoys equal rights.”
