As a father of three girls, the safety of our children is always on my mind. I'm proud of the bills we passed in the Legislature to give prosecutors and law enforcement officers the resources they need to make our communities safer. We increased penalties for sex offenders, mandated 24-hour GPS monitoring for the worst sex offenders, and strengthened laws against child pornography and online predators. I will continue to work with police officers, prosecutors, and victims' advocates to make sure Washington has the toughest laws in the country.
