Letter to the Editor: An Introduction to State Rep. Marcie Maxwell

Marcie Maxwell represents the newly-drawn 41st Legislative District.

I’m pleased to introduce State Representative Marcie Maxwell to her Sammamish constituents in the new boundaries drawn for the 41st Legislative District. Marcie has represented me and a good portion of the Issaquah School District in Olympia for the past four years and I can assure those new to the 41st that they will be well represented by her, as well.

She is a familiar face to our Bellevue, Newcastle and Renton citizens and an enthusiastic supporter of the Issaquah Schools Foundation, PTSA’s, levy and bond campaigns, arts and athletics throughout our school district.

I’ve known Marcie for many years, having served as members of neighboring school boards and at the state level as we advocated for adequate funding for education. She currently serves in the House of Representatives as Deputy Majority Leader for Education and Opportunity, and, by special appointment of the Governor and Speaker of the House, as a member of the Quality Education Council, which directs the implementation of basic education funding reforms. I can assure you that there is no stronger or more effective advocate for our school children.

Those in our business community will also be familiar with Marcie, as a leader of the Seattle King County Association of Realtors, member of our Chambers of Commerce, and past president of her Rotary Club.

Marcie has the dedication and influence to get things done for our communities and our schools. You will find that she is approachable and responsive to your concerns. We’re lucky to have her represent our corner of East King County.

We too, love having our Farmers' Market return! Opening day was a bit weather-challenged. ThankRead More you merchants for enduring the wet and cold for our new extended hours! What a wonderful sight will return to the plaza when the sunshine calls back all the families with happy, giggling children. Market day is a date of dinner out (side) & shopping (vegetables, fruits and now HedgeHog Toffee) with my husband. Doesn't get much better than that! SEE YOUR THERE! Susan Gerend
