Since I live in Sitka, I rarely use a cab, but I have down south, and I appreciate their finesse in driving around Seattle.  But, I do have a care for those who serve our State.  In the early 70's, I worked for Public Safety.  At that time DMV was across the hall from the Troopers.  I worked with a lady whose husband was a Trooper, has sons as Troopers now.  Later I worked in Petersburg as a dispatcher.  One of our Officers became a Trooper.  I much appreciated their dedication to their job, they were all fine upstanding citizens.  Their families deserve the honor of receiving this insurance for the rest of their lives.  These families have paid the price, also.  Their spouses are gone so much and they miss out on so much of family life, and the least the legislature can do is honor these men by giving their families some security.  And, we run a small business and don't have insurance.
