We’re Having Technical Difficulties: Please Stand By
In case you’re wondering why our website has vanished… We are having some technical difficulties, so please stand by. But we’ll be back soon with a new look, a new URL, and we’ll be gradually adding new features.
We’ll also be making it easier for non-techies to post on the site. Hopefully, that’ll mean more volunteers contributing, and more news, updates, and actions as we get ready to take back the White House and the U.S. Senate in 2020.
We also want to thank Justin Haight for building the old site and keeping it running perfectly for the past two years.
Our new address is: IndivisibleTacoma.Net.
Actions for this Week
Calling District 28!
“Hi, I am calling to ask Senator________ to please prioritize the passage of 2SHB1039, out of the Senate Health Long Term Care Committee with a do pass recommendation. 1039 is a direct response to the opioid overdose epidemic in our state. The antidote, when administered in time, saves lives. The availability of this antidote in our schools, from Kindergarten all the way through and our institutions of higher learning, is essential to prevent death in the precious moments after an overdose. Thank you.”
Please also ask him to pass SHB1870 so provisions of the Affordable Care Act become state law.
