2/19 update: Please see
Feel free to continue emailing legislators, but the immediate action below for the committee meeting is now out of date.
Thank you for all of the support so far! Now we've got some more to do!

All hands on deck!
Hello and welcome to another special edition of our threads covering the ongoing WA legislative session, running until 3/10. Today (2/16) in the House Civil Rights & Judiciary hearing we heard some well-constructed and compelling testimony against the mag ban bill.
We need immediate help - tonight (2/16) and tomorrow (2/17) - to keep the pressure on the committee members. We are asking everyone - whether you testified already or not - to directly call/email the committee members with your opposition. Sending them the same testimony you submitted for the hearing would be acceptable. This should be a quick action, but we need lots of volume.
The House Civil Rights & Judiciary committee members are:
Name - Phone
Drew Hansen (D, Chair) - (206) 333-2975
Tarra Simmons (D, Vice Chair) - (564) 888-2476

Greg Gilday (R, Assistant Ranking Minority Member) - (360) 939-1211

Their emails, formatted in a copyable list are:
[email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected]
Please take 5-10 minutes to call/email the committee members and spread this message. We have shattered the record for testimony numbers during today's hearing, and we need to keep the pressure on to keep this from being passed out of committee.
It would be helpful to leave us a quick "Done" comment once complete. Thank you for stepping up!
