Laurie Jinkins
Laurie Jinkins (Democratic Party) is a member of the Washington House of Representatives, representing District 27-Position 1. She assumed office in 2011. Her current term ends on January 11, 2027.
Jinkins was first elected to serve as the speaker of the House for the Washington House of Representatives on January 13, 2020.[1] She is the first woman and the first lesbian to serve as Washington's House speaker.[2]
Jinkins earned a bachelor's degree and a master's degree from the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 1985 and 1987. She earned a law degree from the Seattle University School of Law in 1990.[3] She also completed executive studies at Harvard University's Kennedy School in 2007.[2] Before her election to the House in 2010, Jinkins worked as an assistant attorney general in the Washington Attorney General's office and as an assistant secretary in the state Department of Health. Her other career experience includes working as the director of organizational initiatives and as a senior advisor at the Tacoma-Pierce County Health Department.[3]
In 2009, Jinkins co-chaired the campaign supporting Referendum 71, which expanded "the rights, responsibilities, and obligations accorded state-registered same-sex and senior domestic partners to be equivalent to those of married spouses, except that a domestic partnership is not a marriage."[4] Voters approved the referendum 53.2%-46.9%.
In 2010, Jinkinks was first elected to represent District 27. In 2020, Jinkins was elected to succeed Frank Chopp (D) as speaker. Chopp was the longest-serving speaker in state history, first elected in 1999.[4]
In an interview with Cascade PBS vote, Jinkins also said, "Everything my family has in the world is because Democrats have controlled the House of Representatives for the last 20 years... Over the whole course of my life, everything from Washington adopting a hate crime statute, to passing antidiscrimination laws, to domestic partnership laws … all of those things made a huge difference for my family and that is true for so many millions of people in this state. ... That’s why I want to be speaker — because I want that to be the case forever."[4]
On January 13, 2025, Jinkins was sworn in as speaker for the sixth time. In her opening day remarks she listed affordability of housing, childcare, health care, the state's budget, education, and public safety as priorities for the 2025 session.[5] She also said, “Protecting Washington’s way of life is important. ... And we’re going to stand up for trans people, for immigrants, and for all Washingtonians who find themselves under attack by those who choose to divide us rather than unite us.”[6]

2014
Jinkins' campaign website highlighted the following issues:[15]
Revenue Reform
- Excerpt: "I believe that we need a tax system that is fair, adequate and stable. Washington State's current tax base relies too heavily on regressive, unreliable taxes, and I am a leader in promoting systemic reform."
Accountability and Reform
- Excerpt: "I have a record of bringing positive change and accountability to troubled agencies, while always remembering the needs of people. My creative, smart, financially responsible approach is the right way to navigate the tough economy."
Education
- Excerpt: "As a PTA mom, I am dedicated to investing in our K-12 schools too. Even during the tough economy, our highest priority must be to provide educational excellence and opportunity for every child."
Jobs for Working Families
- Excerpt: "Washington has regularly been ranked by independent sources as one of the top five states in the nation for small business. This largely stems from our innovative spirit, our strong higher education system and legislative efforts to make sure we advance smart regulation and support for our small businesses. I believe this is the right approach and will continue to support small business development."
Transportation
- Excerpt: "I advocate for modern, clean, green transit and transportation choices that work for everyone. For people this means more investment in transit, car pool incentives and non-motorized transportation. For freight, this means a fair regulatory environment, encouragement of multi-modal transportation, and protection and enhancement of the Port of Tacoma. The Port of Tacoma is a key to our economic strength, we must make sure it remains vital and busy, providing growth and jobs."

Scorecards
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.
