State Auditor Candidate Visits Enumclaw
Kelley agrees state needs to be held accountable for spending.
Troy Kelley, a small business owner and state legislator running for State Auditor, is currently on a statewide tour.
He recently held a meeting in Enumclaw. Citizens shared their ideas with him on holding government more accountable.
“Washington needs an independent voice as auditor. Our ability to focus state government on our top priorities like education depends on our ability to manage budgets responsibly. I believe the best way I can ensure that happens is by applying my background in auditing and business to make certain our tax dollars are used as efficiently as possible,” Kelley said.
