Throughout Elpidia's campaign, she has received feedback from residents regarding excessively lengthy and expensive county processes, as well as regulatory overreach and control over their lands, properties, and water rights. Economic growth and development are being hindered by rigid county regulations, preventing both small and large business owners from realizing their full potential. Elpidia is committed to alleviating these concerns by easing regulations, streamlining processes, and simplifying procedures to better address the needs of those directly impacted in District 3 and the rest of the county.

Elpidia holds a deep reverence for law and order, recognizing that without it, chaos ensues. Residents aspire to live in safe and beautifully pleasing communities where they can work, raise families, and cultivate businesses and relationships. Elpidia firmly advocates for law enforcement officers and veterans within our communities, understanding firsthand the significance of providing them with the necessary resources to carry out their duties safely and effectively, benefiting both themselves and the public. With several family members who have served in law enforcement and the US military, Elpidia appreciates the importance of supporting these individuals in maintaining the safety and well-being of our society.

Elpidia champions prudent government expenditure and restraint, understanding the need to safeguard taxpayers and uphold a robust economic equilibrium. Streamlining bureaucratic procedures and curbing undue regulations are imperative to this end. As a resolute leader, she refuses to remain passive when confronted with challenging choices. She has not, nor will I ever, endorse governmental directives detrimental to our children, local enterprises, or communities. I vocally opposed such measures during the pandemic, and I am prepared to do so again to safeguard the economic prosperity of Yakima County's communities."

Did you know that over the past 5 years, the most marginalized and vulnerable residents of Yakima County, particularly those residing in Elpidia's district, have missed out on nearly 5 million dollars in funding opportunities due to inadequate administration and a negligent lack of accountability? As someone who has experienced homelessness firsthand, this news was both infuriating and unacceptable to Elpidia. She believes, "It's imperative that we seize every available funding opportunity to its fullest extent, without excuses." With steadfast drive, Elpidia is committed to addressing homelessness by meeting people's basic needs, transitioning them off the streets and into safe, dignified environments, and advancing stable, affordable housing solutions. Providing people with the tools to become productive and self-sufficient can eliminate most of the costly homeless challenges faced by local communities. Through these efforts, Elpidia will ensure that funding allocated for homeless assistance yields tangible results, is properly managed, and administered with efficiency and accountability.

One of the most significant issues facing the government is its lack of financial accountability. Trillions upon billions of dollars are spent each year on various endeavors that do not directly benefit the residents of the U.S. There exists a notable absence of transparency and accountability within these expenditures. Elpidia is committed to transforming Yakima County into an exception to this trend. Elpidia aims to ensure that the county's resources are utilized in the most beneficial manner for its residents. By actively encouraging and considering input and concerns from residents, engaging local stakeholders who are most impacted, and maintaining a high level of accountability at the county level, significant improvements can be made in service delivery and the overall functioning of the county. This approach will foster greater transparency and accountability across the board for the benefit of the Yakima County residents.
