CALLS NEEDED NOW MORE THAN EVER ON THE BUDGET

But don’t lose sight of our major challenge: Fighting the “all-cuts” budget. Next week, you will play a critical role. Tuesday, March 17, is the statewide “Day of Action” to get hotline calls into your legislators on the budget. Go to our website at www.wfse.org for more details and to sign up to get a special text message on that day.

With that in mind, it is critical to continue calls in against the “all-cuts” budget. The official March revenue forecast comes out next Thursday. That will set off a flurry of budget action. Legislators need to get these messages now. So….

• Call your two House members and senator at 1-800-562-6000.

• Urge them to reject the all-cuts budget proposed by the governor in HB 1244 and SB 5600.

• These cuts hurt Washington’s quality services.

• Instead, let’s look at sensible solutions to save our state, the vulnerable, public safety, health, recreation and the environment.
