Dear Mrs. Short

The Spokane Home Builders Association would like to thank you for meeting with the
Tri-County Chapter members. We appreciate your availability and willingness to discuss
your campaign and vision for Washington State.

It is my pleasure to announce that the Spokane Home Builders Association has endorsed
your candidacy for election and has made a favorable recommendation to the Building
Industry Association of Washington (BIAW) on your behalf. Financial contributions to
legislative campaigns are administered through BIAW's Washington Affordable Housing
Council. Your campaign will be hearing from BIAW representatives shortly. We look
forward to working with you on issues of mutual concern. If you have any questions,
please do not hesitate to contact us at 509.532.4990.

Again, thank you for interviewing with the Spokane Home Builders Association Tri-
County Chapter members. We appreciate your knowledge of and commitment to the
citizens of Washington State and the issues that affect the local building industry.

Sincerely,



Steve Taylor
