If you’re anything like me, watching the news these days makes me wonder what I can do here at home to make sure Washington remaining a safe haven for liberal ideas and an example for the country of progressive policies in action. Control of Olympia is anything but certain, with only a one seat majority in the state senate and a two seat majority in the state house of representatives and vulnerable Democrats running for their political lives in tough primary battles in purple districts. But there is allot to be hopeful for! These LD races can often come down to razor thin margins, which means that if we put in the effort, and push at the grassroots level, these are all winnable races.

So what can we do in the fighting 46th? It’s time to go on offense! We are headed to 4 nearby LDs to help turn out their voters, support awesome local Democrats, and maybe flip a couple seats BLUE!

In order to make this a reality WE NEED YOUR HELP!

Would you commit to help us canvass at one of these upcoming Days of Action?

• Saturday, July 21st- 47th LD, Kent/Covington

• Sunday, July 22nd- 48th LD, Redmond

• Saturday, July 28th- Our very own 46th LD!

• Sunday, July 29th- 30th LD, Federal Way

Resolution for consideration at the June 20th Meeting

April 19th - Meet and Engage with your 46th District Legislators!

Join us on Thursday, April 19 at 7:00pm, in the Seattle Mennonite Church Auditorium for a fascinating look behind the scenes of how big ideas become important laws from the 46th District's own legislative delegation Senator David Frockt, Representative Gerry Pollet, and Representative Javier Valdez, as they share experiences and thoughts on the 2018 Session of the Washington State Legislature.

Hear about:  McCleary funding for schools, improved access to voting, capital investments within the district, putting women of Washington first legislation, partnerships between law enforcement and advocates for the mentally ill, and many other important hot topics.

This will be an interesting program for anyone who cares about how state government really works and all the difference one state Senate seat in the hands of the Democrats can make. Consider asking a friend to join you!

We will also consider endorsements of signature-gathering campaigns for initiatives proposed to be on the ballot this year, and we will adopt our endorsement rules for the Sunday, May 20th endorsements meeting.

All this, along with like-minded friends and neighbors makes for a delightful evening.

Won't you join us?
