Building grassroots power in Washington State.

Key Issues in 2021

Basic Needs
Every adult and child should always have their basic needs met, no matter the situation. We’re advocating for policies that ensure a stronger baseline of economic security for people statewide.
State Tax Code
Washington’s tax system is upside down. It taxes low-income people at a higher rate than wealthy people. We’re advocating for fair tax policies that will turn our state tax structure right side up.
Debt
Debt can be a huge barrier to a solid financial future. We back strong and transparent consumer protections that protect people, not corporations, and offer a viable way to manage debt.

Dental Therapy
Routine oral healthcare is inaccessible for many low-income communities across the state. We support expanding dental therapy, a proven solution for affordable, compassionate dental care.
