Hold your elected officials accountable

Engage your elected officials through meetings, social media, phone calls, and emails. Ask them to develop and support legislation and budget priorities that value our region’s natural resources and the communities that depend on them. Thank them when they safeguard clean water, support sustainable farms and forests, build strong and durable rural economies, increase urban tree canopy, reduce carbon pollution, protect wildlife, and strengthen vulnerable communities. Remind elected officials that clean water is good for the economy and that restoring Puget Sound creates jobs.

Washington State’s Environmental Priorities Coalition is made up of 27 statewide environmental organizations working to safeguard our environment and the health of our communities through policy and budget advocacy at the Washington State Legislature. Every year, the Coalition comes together to select priorities to advance during the legislative session.
