John,

We have only a few more days left of our giving campaign.

If you haven’t heard yet, 2021 is a local election year and we need your help to get environmental leaders elected to local governments.

With our collective power, we can reach goals like electing more BIPOC candidates to serve on the Vancouver City Council, expanding an environmental majority in the Whatcom County council, and bringing on a majority of environmental leaders to the Tacoma Port commission.

We need to support and champion the voices of candidates who know their communities and the intersectional issues that affect them.

When you give, your contribution will help elect the bold environmental leaders we need for change across the state.

Sincerely,

Emily Krieger
Political and Civic Engagement Manager

Greetings John,

As local elections get closer, we at WCV are putting our resources behind endorsed candidates who will champion the environment in key geographies around the state.

We cannot do this important work without you. Your contribution will be matched and allows us to back the environmental champions who can lead us on our most pressing environmental issues.

We are focused on key races this year including Whatcom county council, Tacoma’s Port commission, and Vancouver’s city council. We’ve also newly expanded our reach into the Tri-Cities with Esteban Ortiz, our new community organizer and our partnership with Progesso.

The Tri-Cities has always been an important area of the state for environmental justice. We are recommitting to organizing and engaging with voters in this community. Additionally, finding solutions to the Snake River dams has become increasingly important to the region. We see the scope for environmental advocacy in this part of the state.

We are working in the communities to connect with voters and key players on strong environmental actions that affect their community and the state as a whole. Your support has allowed us to strengthen our relationships in communities such as the Tri-Cities.

Become a member today and have your gift matched to ensure that we are able to build a strong platform for the candidates who will advocate for our environment and our communities.

With the right people in office, we can tackle crucial challenges like environmental racism, salmon recovery, climate pollution, and polluted run-off in our streams, rivers, and Salish Sea. We can prevent the expansion of coal, oil, and fracked gas terminals, advance clean energy, promote healthy forests that can store more carbon and provide clean water, and expand voting rights.

WCV has endorsed a group of environmental leaders who will fight for our environment and the health of our communities. We need your support to get them elected in November.

WCV will use our collective power to support elected officials who are standing strong for our land, air, and water and we are counting on you to give your gift today.

Sincerely,

Lennon Bronsema
Chief Campaigns Officer
