Read up on the biggest issues, elections, and public policies that are shaping our state.
Comeback victories across Washington
There was so much at stake this general election. While the final votes are still coming in in a few counties, it’s clear that Washingtonians fought hard for progress in the face of unprecedented corporate spending. From Amazon’s $1.5 million in Seattle and hundreds of thousands spent by big developers in Spokane to tens of thousands spent by the fossil fuel industry in Whatcom County, voters were inundated with campaign messages pushing a conservative corporate agenda.
Is Nadine Woodward a Trump Voter?
Recording reveals why she is hiding her political views and that she “Didn’t vote for Hillary Clinton”

She has been the least transparent candidate running for mayor, from skipping 6 of the last 13 candidate forums, to refusing to be interviewed by reporters, to misleading voters about her views on Border Patrol.

Why We Oppose Tim Eyman’s Initiative 976
Tim Eyman has devoted the last 20 years of his life to gutting funding for essential services in Washington state. Over the course of two decades, he launched dozens of initiatives that have slashed billions of dollars that would have boosted transportation, transit, education, affordable housing, mental health services, and more.

What is Rep. Matt Shea's Problem?
Republican Rep. Matt Shea’s name has been in the headlines a lot lately for reasons that are truly hard to believe, even in today’s political climate.
First elected to the state House in 2008, Shea has disgraced his North-Spokane Legislative District and our state with his outrageous white supremacist and religious extremist beliefs.
