Commissioner Herb Welch said the timing might not be the best for McKenna who is running for Governor but enough is enough.
Commissioner Terry Willis said this issue is bigger than Grays Harbor County.
The letter also states that counties spend 70 to 75 percent of their budgets on law and justice and are asking that they are not to be burdened more by the courts and be forced to give the judges whatever they want.
