Keep calls coming; upcoming rallies need you!

Call 1-800-562-6000. 

Tell your legislators:
  1. RAISE REVENUE!
    SUPPORT SB 6843 to amend I-960 and allow majority rule on revenue issues.
  2. CLOSE TAX LOOPHOLES!
    SUPPORT HB 3176 to close tax loopholes to recoup hundreds of millions of dollars in lost revenue.
  3. OPPOSE FURLOUGHS!
    OPPOSE SSB 6503, the state employee furlough bill. Its unintended consequences will cost more, not less.
You can also take online action at www.wfse.org > Action Center.
