<h2>Las prioridades principales de Janet St. Clair</h2><h5>Reducir los costos para las familias trabajadoras</h5>&nbsp;Aumentan los precios de la gasolina, los alimentos, la atención médica y la vivienda: ¿qué haremos? En el Senado estatal, trabajaré para garantizar que la vivienda, la atención médica y las guarderías estén al alcance. Trabajaré para reducir el costo de las necesidades básicas y abordar, de forma proactiva, la manipulación injusta de los precios por parte de las grandes empresas. Reconozco la importancia que tiene el Internet para las familias y he trabajado con éxito para llevar una conectividad asequible y accesible a empresas y hogares. He trabajado a nivel local y estatal para conseguir inversiones y formación para las pequeñas empresas, garantizando puestos de trabajo y salarios justos.&nbsp; Como comisionada del condado, he dado prioridad al desarrollo sostenible, y trabajaré para construir viviendas para las familias trabajadoras y los ancianos.<h5>Orgullosamente a favor del derecho a decidir</h5>Los derechos de las mujeres y sus opciones de atención médica personal están siendo atacados por extremistas.&nbsp; Trabajé para impedir el cierre de la Women’s Health Clinic (Clinica) en Whidbey. Como vicepresidenta del Comité de Política Saludable de la National Association of Counties, aprobamos una plataforma política federal que incluía el acceso al aborto, y seguiré asegurándome de que todos los habitantes del estado de Washington puedan recibir la atención médica que elijan. Me enorgullece estar 100% a favor del derecho a decidir, y trabajaremos para garantizar la protección de nuestros derechos de atención médica, para nosotros y para las generaciones futuras.&nbsp;<h5>Acceso a la atención médica y a los medicamentos de venta con receta&nbsp;</h5>Como comisionada del condado de Island, dirigí los esfuerzos para detener el cierre de Whidbey Health y proteger la Women’s Health Clinic (Clinica). Sé lo importante que es el acceso a la atención médica en las comunidades rurales y nunca dejaré de luchar para que estos centros sigan abiertos. Lucharé por una atención médica asequible y accesible, y por reducir el costo de los medicamentos de venta con receta, especialmente para los discapacitados, los ancianos y las personas con ingresos fijos.<h5>Proteger el aire y el agua</h5>&nbsp;Vivimos en una de las zonas más bellas de Washington: el verdadero país de Dios. Y es clave para nuestro entretenimiento y nuestra economía: el turismo, la pesca y el desarrollo económico dependen de nuestros recursos naturales y de nuestra belleza sin igual.&nbsp; Me dedico a garantizar que tengamos aire puro para respirar y agua limpia para beber. Soy una firme protectora del salmón y de nuestra emblemática población de orcas, y seguiré apoyando la restauración y los derechos tribales. Como comisionada del condado de Island, aprobé la primera Resolución sobre el Cambio Climático comprometiéndome a tomar medidas específicas y mensurables para hacer frente al cambio climático, alinear nuestro trabajo con la ciencia actual y hacer esfuerzos continuos para reducir las emisiones de gases de efecto invernadero.<h5>&nbsp;</h5><h5>Apoyo a las fuerzas de orden público</h5>&nbsp;Estoy orgullosa de lo que he hecho en materia de seguridad pública. En reiteradas ocasiones, he votado para dar al alguacil del condado de Island más recursos y para fortalecer nuestro sistema de justicia penal. Siempre apoyaré a nuestro personal de servicios de emergencia. También estamos en medio de una epidemia de drogas: la crisis del fentanilo no se parece a nada que hayamos visto antes. En Olympia, trabajaré para proporcionar recursos a las fuerzas del orden y a nuestros equipos de respuesta conjunta para obtener resultados compasivos y eficaces.&nbsp;Y, para que quede claro, yo habría votado en contra de la modificación de las normas relativas a las persecuciones policiales: la policía debe poder hacer su trabajo.&nbsp;<h5>Al servicio de los que han servido</h5>Mi padre sirvió en la Marina durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial y desde pequeña me enseñaron a honrar a los que sirvieron.Por desgracia, nuestro gobierno no siempre ha estado a la altura de esa promesa. En Olympia, trabajaré duro para asegurarme de que el estado haga todo lo posible para ayudar a los veteranos. Como comisionada del condado, trabajé para aumentar el número de agentes de los Servicios para Veteranos para nuestros veteranos y en la política federal para garantizar servicios médicos y de salud mental adecuados para aquellos que sirvieron.

Pasé mis 30&nbsp;años de carrera como trabajadora social en el ámbito de las organizaciones sin ánimo de lucro a la vez que ejercía de madre de acogida voluntaria, para ayudar a niños en situación de riesgo a encontrar estabilidad y permanencia en su vida. Como directora de grandes organizaciones de servicios sociales, equilibré presupuestos complejos y multimillonarios con diversas fuentes de financiamiento. Trabajé para promulgar políticas de sentido común que repercutieran directamente en la vida de las personas a las que servía. Trabajé en servicios de salud mental y atención primaria integrados y de vanguardia que reconocían la importancia tanto de la salud física como de la mental. Dirigí un equipo que puso en marcha uno de los primeros programas de salud integrados y culturalmente apropiados del estado de Washington. Como madre de acogida y como profesional, me encargué de programas de bienestar infantil y formé a padres profesionales y aspirantes en la crianza temporal.Creo en la fuerza y la resiliencia de las personas cuando el gobierno se esfuerza por aplicar políticas de sentido común que reconocen la importancia de comunidades en las que las personas pueden prosperar en el lugar donde viven, trabajan y juegan. Cuando me retiré del trabajo social, aproveché mi amor por la naturaleza y mis conocimientos de administración de organizaciones sin ánimo de lucro para convertirme en directora ejecutiva a tiempo parcial de una organización medioambiental local que trabaja para mejorar y proteger la belleza de nuestras islas. Tengo el privilegio de haber trabajado al lado de profesionales dedicados y talentosos. La importancia del trabajo en equipo y la colaboración han sido fundamentales a lo largo de mi carrera.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Ejerzo como comisionada del condado de Island desde 2018. Como comisionada, me comprometí a mejorar la vida de las familias trabajadoras. Aumenté los fondos para la ayuda a la vivienda, abogué por la protección de los trabajadores y por salarios competitivos, y apoyé a nuestro personal de servicios de emergencia aumentando los fondos para la Oficina del Alguacil del condado de Island.Como hija de un veterano de la Marina y nieta de un veterano de la Segunda Guerra Mundial, la importancia de apoyar a los veteranos y a las familias de militares es un asunto muy personal para mí. Me enorgullece haber aumentado el número de agentes de los Servicios para Veteranos en el condado de Island y haber prestado apoyo médico y de salud mental a quienes han prestado servicio. Servir al pueblo del condado de Island ha sido un honor y espero seguir ofreciendo resultados reales a nuestra comunidad.&nbsp;Mi esposo y yo disfrutamos de nuestra familia mixta de hijos biológicos, hijastros e hijos de acogida. Aunque son nuestro perrito Bogey y nuestros nietos y perros nietos los que más alegría nos dan. Ahora reconozco que la mejor parte de la paternidad es convertirse en abuela. Nos pueden encontrar disfrutando de los parques locales del condado y del estado, jugando al tenis o en el agua disfrutando de la abundancia de nuestro hermoso mar de los Salish.Aporto un liderazgo respetuoso y experimentado que valora a la comunidad y a las personas, ante todo. Mi experiencia me permite trabajar en colaboración con otros líderes electos a nivel estatal y federal para elaborar políticas públicas justas y eficaces. Les propongo que, cuando nos unamos, con nuestros valores compartidos y un compromiso con las soluciones, nada nos dividirá en nuestros esfuerzos por fortalecer y proteger nuestras comunidades.

My journey in public service began over 30 years ago as a social worker. Throughout my career, I've worn many hats—from foster parent to social worker, non-profit executive, and now on the Island County Commission. Each role has reinforced my belief in people's strength and resilience when supported by common-sense policies.<img src="https://run.imgix.net/27aa4619-f31b-4eb3-a44c-09b44dd388ae/7b5e24a2-451a-4462-a86f-0519c1cb0421/7b5e24a2-451a-4462-a86f-0519c1cb0421.jpeg?ixlib=js-3.8.0&amp;bri=0&amp;con=0&amp;sat=0&amp;high=0&amp;shad=0&amp;usm=0&amp;rect=0%2C0%2C3594%2C2140&amp;w=1500" alt="" title="" caption="" align="left" alignwidth="40" tiltdirection="left" variant="base">As a social worker and foster parent, I helped at-risk children find stability and permanency in their lives. I've managed child welfare programs and trained both professionals and prospective parents about fostering. This experience has given me a deep understanding of the challenges facing our most vulnerable community members.Since 2018, I've had the honor of serving as your Island County Commissioner. In this role, I've focused on increasing healthcare and mental health treatment in our communities, serving our veterans, protecting the Puget Sound for future generations, increasing affordable housing, and supporting our first responders with increased funding for the Island County Sheriff's Office. <img src="https://run.imgix.net/27aa4619-f31b-4eb3-a44c-09b44dd388ae/b95b8deb-dd6d-4bed-ba00-15c71743bee1/b95b8deb-dd6d-4bed-ba00-15c71743bee1.jpeg?ixlib=js-3.8.0&amp;bri=0&amp;con=0&amp;sat=0&amp;high=0&amp;shad=0&amp;usm=0&amp;rect=0%2C79%2C945%2C641&amp;w=1500" alt="" title="" caption="" align="right" alignwidth="27" tiltdirection="right" variant="base">As the daughter of a Navy Veteran in WWII and granddaughter of a World War I veteran, supporting veterans and military families is deeply personal to me.

But I've seen firsthand how our shared values of community, mutual respect, and common purpose can transcend political divisions. These values aren't Republican or Democrat – they're Washingtonian.&nbsp;As your State Senator, I pledge to uphold these values, to work tirelessly for our district - to lower costs, keep our communities safe, protect access to health care, and make sure our tax dollars are respected.&nbsp;I'll strive to bridge divides, to listen to all voices, and to make decisions that benefit our entire community.I would be honored to earn your vote and continue serving our community in this new capacity. Together, we can build a brighter future for the 10th District and for all of Washington State.

As an Island County Commissioner, I led the effort to stop the closure of Whidbey Health and protect the Women’s Health Clinic. I know how important access to healthcare is in rural communities and will never stop fighting to make sure these facilities remain open. I will fight for affordable, accessible healthcare and to reduce the cost of prescription drugs, especially for disabled people, seniors and people on fixed incomes.
