@MattD98058 @Hackney4the11th Hey Matt, voting yes. be great to to speak with you!

[Melanie Morgan @WAMelanieMorgan]

This past session I sponsored HB 2312, which would've made Juneteenth an official holiday. For typical reasons, this bill was stalled. Celebrating blackness always seems to be a struggle, so we're done waiting for acknowledgement, we'll just do it ourselves. #JUNETEENTH2020

@MattD98058 @bhasegawa @ZackHudgins thanks for reaching out @MattD98058, the Governor introduced a few proposals today, including the development of a law enforcement reform task force. I am hopeful we will be able to act on task force recommendations when we get called into special session.

Thanks @CMUpthegrove for highlighting our work with the South King Food Fighters! @ZackHudgins

[CM Dave Upthegrove @CMUpthegrove]

Have you heard of the South King Food Fighters? This week on "Staying Home With Dobby," I speak with WA State Reps @ZackHudgins and @steve4house, who formed the org to fill the need for food assistance in South King County.

On a statewide call - in April of 2019 850k individuals needed hunger relief. April 2020 (now) 1.6m individuals are in need and it is likely already more. We need to remain focused on the fact food is a public health issue. #FoodIsHealth #waleg

The Working Families Tax Credit rewards work and puts money into families’ hands. And economists love it! #EconTwitter #AskWaLeg

[Marcus Riccelli @marcusriccelli]

@MarkoLiias is running a bill to allow 17 year olds to vote in the primary if they turn 18 by election day. Awesome legislation to #putpeoplefirst and increase access. #askwaleg

[Tana Senn @TanaSenn]

We just make #childcare more accessible, affordable for low-income and working families. We must support the workforce, increase supply with capital grants and invest in birth to 3 programs. Good for kids brain development, parents employment and biz and the economy! #askwaleg

[Nick Hanauer @NickHanauer]

Right now, our state's regressive tax structure is so backwards that poor people pay a larger share of their income in taxes than me and my wealthy friends. How will you make sure that I pay at least as much in taxes as the poorest Washingtonian? #askWALeg #waleg

[Marcus Riccelli @marcusriccelli]

The Working Families Tax Credit would be help some of our most struggling families in Spokane (and our state) better thrive. It's time has come to fund the line item @lisa4progress created. #PuttingPeopleFirst #AskWALeg

[Marcus Riccelli @marcusriccelli]

2. I will be introducing legislation to bring back a State Dental Director to help us strategically map out and implement an effective statewide plan to increase access. #AskWALeg

I am disappointed with the Court’s decision today, which undermines the ability of public sector workers to bargain collectively and undoes 40 years of established law. #Janus https://t.co/zbX4UmyqZB
