Our next general meeting will be Wednesday, August 26th on Zoom, this Wednesday night! The regular meeting will begin right at 7 PM with no early social hour this month. Don't forget to pre-register!!
We do hope you'll attend as our meeting agenda is packed full, as usual! Guest speakers this month include: Chris Reykdal, Candidate for WA Superintendent of Public Instruction; James Jayaraj, Auburn City Councilmember; and Catherine Floate, Regional Field Director (King County) for WA State Democrats. Along with our speakers, Rep Dr Kim Schrier, and both 31st LD State Rep candidates will be stopping by to check-in and give us an update on their campaigns.
