Rep. Cyndy Jacobsen, 25th District

Welcome! Thank you for visiting my legislative website, where you can learn about the work I am doing on your behalf.

I am honored to serve as your representative in the 25th District, which is centered around Puyallup. Like many of you, I value safe and affordable communities, good schools, and jobs close to home. I want to see our region thrive and be full of opportunities for the next generation.

To ensure we get there, I am working to fix Washington by:

Securing our future through responsible fiscal policies;
Making our state a more affordable place to live;
Growing economic opportunities and jobs;
Protecting communities and children from crime; and
Ensuring parents and guardians are respected and helping children succeed.

I serve as the assistant ranking member on the House Finance Committee and the assistant ranking member on the House Housing Committee. I also serve on the House Civil Rights and Judiciary Committee.

I am also co-chair of the Washington State Institute for Public Policy and serve on the Select Committee on Pension Policy.

Please contact me if you have any questions, ideas, or if I can be of assistance to you. I would love to hear from you!

It is an honor to serve as your advocate in Olympia.

My Priorities

Secure our future with sustainable, accountable fiscal policies

Budget decisions made in Olympia impact everyone, and overspending has led to multiyear deficits. To fill the gaps, the majority has increased taxes and fees, tapped reserve funds, and cut important services. These actions increase the prices we pay and harm our vulnerable neighbors. They can even downgrade our state’s national credit rating, signaling that investing in Washington is a risky endeavor. For our state to thrive, government must live within its means and be accountable for every dollar spent. Wise budget decisions will ensure our state’s long-term economic vitality. We can fund our priorities and keep our promises without fiscal malfeasance.

Make Washington affordable and grow economic opportunities

Washington is one of the most expensive states in the nation to live in. Families are struggling with the high cost of housing, groceries, fuel, and other everyday necessities. State policies can make or break our economy. The Legislature should make sound decisions that deliver meaningful tax relief and decrease cost burdens on all Washingtonians. Lawmakers should also create a regulatory and tax environment that encourages entrepreneurship. These steps would help small businesses grow, help people achieve their dream of homeownership, and lower prices at the gas pump and grocery store.

Protect communities and support law enforcement

Our state’s crime rates are higher than the national average, and we see the effects all around us. Retail theft, property crime, auto theft, and street violence harm far too many people. Our drug crisis is also more severe than in many other states. The opioid overdose death rate is among the highest in the nation, and many addicts end up on the street instead of receiving treatment. Perhaps most distressing, accidental fentanyl ingestion in young children has dramatically increased, and rates of newborn drug exposure are well above the national average. The state must fix the problem of children remaining in homes where hard drugs are used. We must hold offenders accountable, protect our children, and support law enforcement.

Respect parents and help children succeed

Parents and guardians are the primary stakeholders in their children’s lives, and they should have the right to guide their children’s upbringing and understand how their schools operate. The 25th District is home to many outstanding teachers who keep parents informed and work hard each day to ensure their classrooms are respectful places that foster learning. Parents and guardians expect and deserve transparency, as well as swift action if their child is harmed or experiences a problem at school.
