Read up on the biggest issues, elections, and public policies that are shaping our state.
Community members rallied in the rain on the Auburn City Hall Plaza last Saturday to oppose what they describe as a Congressional Republicans’ “tax giveaway” to the rich.
“The Republican tax bill is a $1.2 trillion disaster for working families,” said Marquese Averett, senior organizer for the South King County office of Fuse, a statewide, progressive advocacy organization. “We’re saying ‘no more’ to Republicans like Dino Rossi, who would be just another rubber stamp for Congressional Republicans’ corrupt agenda.”

McMorris Rodgers did not attend the public forum, but was at a School Safety Youth Forum in Spokane at the same time.
Her campaign spokeswoman Ashley Stubbs said the organization hosting the Pullman forum, Fuse, used Western Washington money to push their values on the district through misleading questions.

Morgan Steele, senior political organizer at Fuse Washington, said the group put a call out for people to come to the rally after Rossi did not respond to a request for comment regarding funding from the gun industry and support for increased gun control legislation.

Candidates in the 8th Congressional District: Sign Our Pledge on Gun Violence Prevention
Gun violence prevention advocates call on congressional candidates to refuse gun lobby money and support closing loopholes that allow abusers and dangerous people to access firearms
March 23, 2018
To all candidates in the election for Washington’s 8th Congressional District:
Dino Rossi, the NRA's A-Rated Candidate
Choosing the Gun Lobby Over Constituents
Dino Rossi has been active in state politics for more than 20 years and has had every opportunity to show Washingtonians that he’s willing to protect our communities from gun violence. But from the school shootings at Columbine High School in 1999 and Virginia Tech in 2007 to the 2012 Sandy Hook Elementary School tragedy, Dino Rossi has remained steadfast in his loyalty to the gun lobby.
Legislative Session Recap 2018: Progressive Wins and Losses
Our work to move Washington forward is finally paying off!
Last November, we flipped control of the state Senate to Democrats when progressive voters in the 45th legislative district elected Senator Manka Dhingra. The impact was crystal clear! Our shared victory empowered the Legislature to pass important reforms on voting rights, women’s health, LGBTQ rights, gun violence prevention, and more.
Thank you to every Fuse member who sent messages, called, donated, and demanded action!
