Critical time for public financing of judicial and local campaigns
This notice is a paraphrase from an email from Washington Public Campaigns (WPC).
As of Saturday March 10th, Clean Elections bills remain stuck in the House Rules Committee, chaired by the Speaker, Representative Frank Chopp. WE NEED YOUR ACTION! These bills will not move without an overwhelming demand from the grassroots. If you want Clean Elections and an end to rule by special interest money, legislative leaders must hear from you.
Even if you have called or written before - please do it again!
Call the Legislative Hotline, 1-800-562-6000.
Leave a message for your legislators and the House Speaker: Enact HB 1551 (grants permission to local cities and other jurisdictions to have their own public financing programs, if they want) and HB 1186 (would establish a 6-year pilot program of public financing for campaigns for the state Supreme Court and Court of Appeals). Cities should be allowed to choose how they run elections, and OUR COURTS should not be for sale to the highest bidder!
