Christine Gregoire | Be a Seed for Change

In just 12 hours, we’re closing the books on our first major fundraising deadline since the end of the legislative session — and I’d love to hear from you to make sure we reach our $10,000 goal.

Our work doesn’t stop when the campaign is over. The grassroots community and momentum we built during my campaign for governor were critical components in our successful efforts to expand Medicaid, increase education funding, and defend against the attacks on critical services for our most vulnerable neighbors.

Our opponents will not give up and we have to be ready.

Click here to contribute $5, $10, or more before tonight’s midnight deadline — and help us reach our $10,000 goal and keep our movement fighting strong!

Thank you so much for everything that you do to help us build a working Washington.

Very truly yours,

Jay Inslee Governor

On February 1, the Washington State Senate voted to approve SB 6239, the marriage equality legislation, by a vote of 28-21. Your senator, Ed Murray , voted with the majority to grant loving, committed same-sex families equal civil marriage in the Evergreen State. Please send Sen. Murray a thank you right now by clicking here.

The senate was considered by most observers as the more difficult chamber to pass the legislation through. Without Sen. Murray ‘s support, advocates would have failed to make Washington State the 7th in the nation to legalize same-sex marriage.

With the State House expected to vote on the measure in the coming days, it’s time to take a moment to recognize the courage and conviction your senator took for standing up and doing the right thing. Thank Sen. Murray today!

Thank you,

Marty Rouse National Field Director

P.S. Save the Date! Join us in Olympia on February 16th for Washington United’s Marriage Lobby Day. We will be delivering messages of thanks and disappointment to legislators who voted for and against marriage equality. Be on the lookout for more information next week!
