Your Weekly Action Alert:

Take Action:
Thank your state legislators for passing a budget that restores funding to key programs that help fight hunger in Washington state and avoids harmful cuts to critical support services for low-income families. You can find your legislators here: http://app.leg.wa.gov/DistrictFinder/
To our partners: please consider inviting your legislators to visit your food bank, meal program, or summer meal sites during the next few months. Use this visit as an opportunity to show them firsthand how our state can do an even better job of making the right investments that will help families get back on their feet after facing setbacks when important services were cut over the past four years. Email Christina or call her at 206-923-7465 for information and resources on how to conduct a legislative visit.
