Register for Lobby Day — This Friday, January 25th, 2019!

This weekend, the Washington State Democratic Central Committee (WSDCC) is gathering in Olympia for its winter reorganization meeting. Before the festivities at the Hotel RL Olympia kick off, the Advocacy Committee is providing a Lobby Day opportunity for Democratic Party leaders to learn about this year’s legislative priorities and connect with our lawmakers. There is no cost to participate and all Democratic activists are welcome. Please use the form below to register.

Lobby Day will be held at the Olympia offices of the Washington State Labor Council, AFL-CIO, beginning at 9 AM. Please leave yourself plenty of time for travel, as morning rush hour can be awful, and parking near the Capitol Campus can be difficult to find. We suggest carpooling and using the free DASH Shuttle to get around if your parking spot is in a lot that’s some distance from the WSLC offices and Capitol. You can also take transit to Olympia; Intercity Transit operates an express bus between the Tacoma Dome Station and the Washington State Capitol. Learn more about that option here.

About the Advocacy Committee

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, 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.”

– Bylaws of the Washington State Democratic Party, Article II, Section E(8)
