Raise the Wage Renton Update

Friends,

We are approaching the FINAL PUSH - Election Day is tomorrow, Tuesday, Feb 13. The deadline to turn in or mail your ballot is 8pm PT.

This campaign gathered its first signatures in January of 2023. Through 2 petition submissions, a 10 day extension, signature validity challenges, we’ve made it so far! This would not have been possible without the unparalleled resiliency and commitment of volunteers and supporters like YOU. We are so proud to have defied the odds to finally make it this far. But… We still have an election to win!

We need all hands on deck to go all out today and tomorrow to deliver a MASSIVE wealth transfer from big business to the working class in Renton.


2/12 Monday Canvass (5 PM to 8 PM): RSVP HERE
2/12 Monday Phonebank (6 PM to 8 PM): RSVP HERE
