By year

The Advocacy Committee is a standing committee of the Washington State Democratic Party’s Central Committee that works to turn the party’s platform into law and build bridges between activists and elected leaders.

“The Advocacy Committee shall promote the Party’s platform. It shall track and evaluate legislation on the SCC’s behalf, recommend positions on statewide ballot measures to the SCC, and coordinate with county and district legislative action committees to advance Democratic causes through grassroots lobbying. Each autumn, prior to December 15th, the Committee shall create an agenda of action priorities for the following year by surveying the SCC and local party organizations. During sessions of the Washington State Legislature, the Committee shall periodically report on the status of the Party’s state-level priorities in addition to tracking any other major bills of concern that are moving in the statehouse.”
