Meet the Real Ron Muzzall


Our local legislators don’t often get much media attention, especially when it comes to their votes and how they choose to represent us. It’s crucial that we not let them slide and instead shine a light on their actions to hold them accountable to the people.

Senator Ron Muzzall has been voting against us time and again in Olympia during his one term in office:


 

Health Care:

  • Voted against a bill that requires greater financial transparency from hospitals.1
  • Voted against a bill which expands access to free and low cost health care for a million Washingtonians.2
  • Voted against a bill that would create a prescription drug affordability board to lower the cost of prescription drugs.3

Reproductive Freedom:

  • Voted against the Keep Our Care Act, which prevents hospital consolidations that would restrict access to critical health care services like abortion and maternity care.4
  • Voted against the Affirm Washington Abortion Access Act, which protects access to abortion care.5
  • Voted against the Shield Law, which protects abortion patients from outside legal persecution.6
  • Voted against a bill to prevent insurance companies from requiring copays for abortion services.7

Workers and Jobs:

  • Voted against a bill to prevent employers from requiring workers to attend meetings on religion and politics.8
  • Voted against a bill to limit noncompete contracts for workers.9
  • Voted against a bill that would ensure that striking workers still receive health care.10
  • Voted against a bill to protect grocery workers from mass layoffs after an employer sells to a new business.11

  • Voted against a bill that required gun dealers to follow new safety and security guidelines.15

Republican Senator Ron Muzzall isn’t the guy we thought he was four years ago.
