W.S.L.C.
Meet Manka at Labor Neighbor kickoff event on June 17
Union member volunteers are needed in critical State Senate race
Democrat Manka Dhingra, a King County Prosecutor and PTA Mom, has been endorsed by the Washington State Labor Council, AFL-CIO and a fast-growing list of unions, elected officials, community organizations and progressive groups. She is running against Republican Jinyoung Lee Englund, a young protege of Washington’s most conservative member of Congress, Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers (R-5th).
If Manka Dhingra wins this election, there will be a new pro-worker majority in the State Senate, where labor-supported legislation routinely has been killed in recent years — often without so much as a hearing.
Please join the WSLC and its affiliated unions for the Labor Neighbor kickoff event, a Grassroots Political Training, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Saturday, June 17 at the Lake Washington Education Association office at 10604 NE 38th Pl #212 in Kirkland. You’ll meet Manka, learn more about the election itself, and get training to hone your advocacy skills and learn how you can make a difference in this race. (Download and share the event flier.)
