Jim Honeyford (born January 24, 1939) is an American politician of the Republican Party. He is a member of the Washington State Senate. He has represented District 15 since 1998.
In February 2011, Honeyford walked out on a legislative hearing in protest of "ghost bills" that are heard in committee, but not written until later. In September 2011, Honeyford was awarded the "Key Award" by the Washington Coalition for Open Government.
On March 2, 2015, Seattle-based newspaper The Stranger reported that, during a committee hearing about a proposed racial impact statement bill, Honeyford shared his belief that "poor" and "colored" people were most likely to commit crimes.
