Even in a national election year, we know we need to hold our local and state leaders accountable. Here in Washington state, ballots for the Primary Election on August 4 will be mailed out in just over a month. Washington Conservation Voters has endorsed a slate of candidates who will stand up for our environment and the health of our communities.

2020 is the most important election of our lifetime. From US President and Congress to the state Legislature and county councils, these are the leaders who can affect systemic change. We are at a turning point in history, and who we vote for matters.

This is a moment that calls for us do things differently. The climate crisis is not slowing down and neither are we. In the coming months and years ahead, we must elect leaders who are willing to take the bold steps needed to address the systemic weaknesses made clear by the current federal administration and pandemic. We should only consider our economy to be thriving if workers, the environment, and communities are protected and healthy.

As we recover from an economic recession and seek justice for frontline communities, we need leaders who prioritize public health, protect workers, and invest in policies that address climate change, clean up toxic pollution, and restore our forests and waters.

In 2019 our state passed the strongest 100% clean electricity bill in the nation. In 2020, Washington can build on that success and work to prioritize people, place, and the health and sustainability of future generations. 

That starts with who we vote for in 2020. Will you help us elect the leaders who will decide our future?

In solidarity,
