Candidate statement

Bloom provided the following candidate statement for the Washington State voter guide:

Washingtonians deserve a judiciary that is independent, impartial, and objective; that treats all who come before it with dignity, respect and courtesy. The Supreme Court should lead the lower courts, and officers of the court, in upholding these values. We should seek honesty, integrity, intellectual curiosity and fairness in our judges and judicial candidates. As a member of the Washington State Bar Association Board of Governors, I was encouraged to run for Supreme Court Justice. I believe others saw these qualities in me.

Having done farm work and bussed tables in my youth, and having been commissioned from the ranks of enlisted sailors, I understand the dignity of hard work and sacrifice. I've worked alongside people from all walks of life.

After 9/11, I was called from the Reserve to active duty, and served for over ten years. Putting my career on hold and leaving my wife and children to deploy to the Persian Gulf was challenging, even before considering the usual hazards of arduous sea duty.

The skill sets I have developed through addressing complex situations and collaborating on solutions, along with my demonstrated honor, courage and commitment, will help me ensure the integrity and independence of our Judiciary.

Bloom sent the following statements to [the profile publisher] on July 7, 2016, regarding his political philosophy:[1]

Fiscal and economic policy

"I am a fiscal conservative. I believe that current policies have been a drag on economic growth and prosperity for the American people. As someone who has spent a great deal of my career in tax and financial services, I believe that I can be instrumental in shaping tax and regulatory reforms that will stimulate economic growth and job creation."

Foreign policy and national security

"As a former military officer (current Reserve officer) and veteran, I am also concerned with national security. As a nation, I do not believe that we are more secure--that we face many threats, not least of which is the "irregular" threat of terrorism and jihadist-inspired domestic attack. As an active-duty officer who served in OEF/OIF and one who has studied strategy and policy at the Naval War College, I can bring these strengths to congressional deliberations and our national debates on the way forward to a more secure future."

Constitutional rights and civil liberties

"I have a deep and abiding respect and reverence for our constitution. I will zealously guard our liberties and protect our constitutionally guaranteed rights."
