Please join us for our first Tuesday Roundtable of 2022 honoring Compass Award winner Representative Steve Tharinger. The WPPA Compass Award is given to legislators each year that have shown special support of port districts. The award actually consists of a compass – which is a symbol of heading in the right direction.

Representative Tharinger helped shepherd infrastructure funding to ports for individual projects, state programs ports can utilize and much needed broadband money. In addition, he stepped in and helped WPPA get the MTCA remedial action grant bill across the finish line in the House this past session. Finally, he sponsored a bill that would have extended the .09 funds for 20 more years, an important program for ports in rural counties. He provides thoughtful advice when asked and always makes himself available to his local port districts.
