Campaign themes
2016
Hayes' campaign website highlighted the following issues:
| “ |
Creating Good Jobs Dave believes in holding State Agencies accountable and reducing excessive regulatory burdens on businesses to create, not hinder, private-sector job growth. Supporting Quality Education As a member of the House Education Committee, Dave supported and advocated for legislation that funded education first, without general tax increases, lowered public college & university tuition rates, while maintaining opposition to passing unfunded mandates onto our local school districts. Dave sponsored and helped pass the military spouses’ priority college & university registration bill. Making Communities Safer Dave passed legislation that strengthened Washington’s firearm offender registration law. He also passed legislation that added a third judge to the Skagit County District Court, helping reduce a backlog on the Court docket that threatened our local justice system. Dave will continue to stand up for our first responders: police, firefighters & EMS personnel. Providing Better Transportation As a member of the House Transportation Committee, Dave had two significant transportation related bills that became law, improving transportation planning and expediting permits for badly needed bridge replacement. Dave will continue to work with local communities on bi-partisan legislation to expand and speed the completion of cost effective transportation projects.[1] |

Hayes' campaign website highlighted the following issues:[3]
Economy
- Excerpt: "I will continue to be active in the successful effort to foster partnerships between job creators and government to overcome obstacles to growth and more efficiently use limited resources to keep our economy strong."
Education
- Excerpt: "I will continue to make the delivery of a 21st Century education to our children in these competitive times a top priority. I will insist on flexibility for students, families and educators to bring innovation and real improvement to our classrooms. I will continue to work to get the federal government out of our schools, and to fight the unfunded mandates and other demands on our educators that drain resources needed to insure a successful education for our kids."
Public Safety
- Excerpt: "We also must hold offenders accountable in a responsible and effective way. I support sentencing alternatives to keep non-violent offenders, including drug users, out of jail and on the road to recovery. I also support mental health court to give us flexibility and a humane alternative in dealing with those offenders who suffer with mental illness. Finally, I will continue to fight for justice, including restitution, for crime victims and families."
Transportation
- Excerpt: "We must also keep transportation tax funds for transportation projects, and stop efforts to add sales tax on transportation projects. We must continue to find ways to deliver needed public transportation more effectively and economically to allow us to expand coverage without tax increases."

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.
