2012

Frame's campaign website listed the following issues:[7]

  • Education
Excerpt: "Washington must deliver on the promise to our children by truly making public education our state’s paramount duty. To do this, it will take all of us, working together, to refocus our state and put education first."
  • Working Families
Excerpt: "In tough economic times like these, we need to do everything we can to stand up for working families. This includes protecting living wage jobs with benefits, expanding access to affordable health care for all and stemming the tide of cuts to critical social safety net services."
  • Marriage Equality
Excerpt: "Washington State is poised to be the first state in the country to uphold marriage equality by a vote of the people. Marriage is about committed couples making lifelong promises to take care of and be responsible for each other. All Washington families should have the freedom to marry—including same-sex couples. I have been, and always will be, a champion for marriage equality and LGBT rights. This November, it’s important that we stand up for love, commitment and responsibility."
  • Environment
Excerpt: "Our environment makes Seattle one of the most beautiful places to live. As someone who was raised on 10 acres of land in Southwest Washington and served on the board of the King County Conservation Voters, Noel understands this. It is not only important to protect our environment in order to preserve our quality of life, but also it is critical to our children’s future. We must work hard to ensure a healthier, more sustainable community for all of Washington’s kids."
  • Women’s Health
Excerpt: "Noel believes strongly in a woman’s right to choose, and will prioritize the restoration of cuts to the family planning safety net and ensure that important programs, like medically accurate sex education, are funded fully."

Scorecards

See also: State legislative scorecards and State legislative scorecards in Washington

A scorecard evaluates a legislator’s voting record. Its purpose is to inform voters about the legislator’s political positions. Because scorecards have varying purposes and methodologies, each report should be considered on its own merits. For example, an advocacy group’s scorecard may assess a legislator’s voting record on one issue while a state newspaper’s scorecard may evaluate the voting record in its entirety.

Ballotpedia is in the process of developing an encyclopedic list of published scorecards. Some states have a limited number of available scorecards or scorecards produced only by select groups. It is Ballotpedia’s goal to incorporate all available scorecards regardless of ideology or number.
