Another Major Expansion Leaves Washington + Suspect Arrested After Capitol Vandalism

Montana Governor Greg Gianforte says his state is open for business and hopes to attract even more companies from Washington after Janicki Industries announced a major expansion in Great Falls instead of Washington state. We break down what the move means for jobs, investment, taxes, regulations, and Washington's business climate. Plus, Pierce County is considering major changes to the sheriff's office, including a proposal that would make the sheriff an appointed rather than elected position. Sheriff Keith Swank is pushing back, arguing voters should retain the right to choose their law enforcement leadership. And a suspect is in custody after causing significant damage to the Washington State Capitol Building in Olympia. We'll show what happened and how new security measures helped prevent another break-in.
