As a fellow member of the Chehalis City Council, I have had the privilege of serving alongside Kate McDougall for the past two years.
In that time, I’ve witnessed firsthand the dedication, heart and strength she brings to this community.
Kate is the hardest working person on our council.
She’s always the first to step up to lend a hand and to ensure that the people of Chehalis are heard and cared for.
She brings a rare blend of common sense, deep compassion and real-world experience that makes her an invaluable part of our team.
With extensive education in behavioral and social sciences and health, along with a strong background in community service, Kate brings both knowledge and heart to every decision she makes.
Her resilience and ability to overcome challenges that would stop most people in their tracks are nothing short of inspiring.
She’s not just educated — she’s wise.
And she’s not just involved — she shows up, time and again, for events, volunteer opportunities and behind-the-scenes work that make our community stronger.
Our life here in Chehalis is better because of Kate McDougall, and her leadership is crucial to our continued progress.
I strongly support her reelection to the at-large position on the Chehalis City Council, and I encourage every resident to vote for someone who truly embodies public service.
Let’s keep Kate working for Chehalis — because we are stronger with her on the council.
