Shahram Hadian for WA State Representative (R)

Shahram-Hadian-WA-State-RepresentativeI am running for public office because I believe that we are living in a pivotal time in the history of our State and Nation. I am deeply concerned with our government’s expanding powers, and the threat that this expansion poses to our constitutionally protected freedoms.

I am also concerned about the out of control spending, debt and government entitlements that are putting the next generation’s future at risk. My concerns have compelled me to run for the House of Representatives in Washington State.  .

I have the opportunity to bring real life experience, common sense, integrity, accountability, and strong leadership to Olympia next year

I have served my community as a local Pastor (Christ the King Church), Police Officer, Teacher, Coach, and I come from a family of Small Business Owners.  I was born in Iran and moved to the U.S. at age 7 to escape an oppressive government.  I became a citizen of this great country to seek freedom and opportunity to make a better life.  I have been married to my beautiful wife Michelle for almost 9 years and we have two amazing boys.
