Jurado Stonier's campaign website highlighted the following issues:

Ensuring excellent schools:

Tackle the drop out rate. We can keep more kids in school by educating each child and finding innovative approaches to close the achievement gap. One-size-fits all and outdated teaching models are slowing progress. We need to highlight and learn from teachers who are making a difference and improve learning for all kids.

Fight for the funding that meets our constitutional obligation and best serves our students and families.

Ensuring a family friendly economy:

The first step is a minimum wage that helps struggling families make ends meet. But it doesn't end there. We need to provide improved economic opportunity. We need to ensure that low wage workers get paid fairly, women receive equal pay for equal work, and help parents stay home with loved ones when they are sick or facing other emergencies.

Creating jobs:

As a legislator, I have a track record streamlining the permitting process for construction workers so they didn't have to go to the Seattle area to get new construction permits. Every legislator needs to listen closely to the small businesses in their community and work closely with them to ensure we are creating a business climate where they can thrive. I plan to continue this work supporting our small businesses if I'm elected.

I am a proven champion for labor apprenticeships and working conditions. A strong middle class depends on living wage jobs and our labor community needs more champions for ensuring working people have decent lives and can retire with dignity.

Protecting the environment and tackling climate change:

Scientists have made a clear case. Our planet is warming at an alarming rate because of human activity especially our use of fossil fuels. We need to reflect and include these costs in our economic activity if we are going to slow or reverse the warming of our planet. Every state needs to do its part to create a new green economy, move away from fossil fuels, and set an example by purchasing clean energy.

Protecting a woman's right to choose.:

Let me be clear, I am 100% pro-choice. I believe that any decision concerning a woman's medical choice is between her and her doctor. In my first term as a legislator, I was consistently counted on to support women's self-determination when it comes to their health. I am a proud cosponsor of the Washington State Reproductive Parity Act and I plan on continuing that consistent track record.[10]

—Monica Jurado Stonier, [11]

Stonier's website highlighted the following campaign themes:

Creating Jobs and Improving Economy

Excerpt: "For as many signs that the economy is turning around, there are just as many signs that we have work to do. I believe the top priority for any elected official right now is getting this economy moving again. As we all know, it is still a very tough environment for small businesses."

Protecting Taxpayers

Excerpt: "A lean and efficient government is my ultimate goal. Taxpayers expect smart use of their dollars and full funding of the programs government should provide. I believe in the common sense use of our revenue dollars and job creation rather than increasing taxes."

Education

Excerpt: "I believe many of the key solutions to the challenges our community faces are rooted in education. Our newest education legislation has promise but needs work. Our students and parents need a voice in this process. We must improve the quality of education for students and address each child's needs individually, not as a mass."
