Meet the WA State Legislature: leg.wa.gov which opens it's 2023 session January 9.
Just kidding. The Legislature's website is a glorious trove of relevant info. It has rosters of legislators and committees, several schedules, ways to contact individual legislators or to send comments to a committee. There are also videos of all hearings and documents filed with bills. For anyone who wants to follow one or more bills, there are ways to sign up to receive alerts. RantWoman definitely does not expect anyone to absorb all this on the first visit, but does encourage anyone interested in legislative work to poke around and see for themselves and then to read on for state legislative advocacy Quaker style.
Readers who would rather dip a toe in gently, check out Quaker Voice on WA Public Policy
As in past years, Quaker Voice on Washington Public Policy will focus on three areas: Criminal Justice, Environmental Stewardship, and Economic Justice. The Quaker Voice home page has links for each working group. The links describe each working group in more detail. There is also info about current legislative priorities as well as options to sign up for email updates during the legislative session.
Save the dates
Quaker Voice will be holding a Zoom information session on Sunday, February 19—the day before Quaker Lobby Day (February 20)—to prepare for to lobby our legislators.
