The 10th Amendment - States' rights
I think this is a direction well worth pursuing here in WA. State.
I believe there was a bill in both the state senate & house last session that never got up for a vote.

I got an invitation to an event surrounding the 10th ammendment and a tour of the state capital. I don't have the details in front of me, but the Trasks (Ted&Sharon) sent it to me. I should have it posted over the weekend when I find it also. I also would like to add to push the end of the 17 amendment since we are on the topic of states' rights.

Yes, we must insist that the states be protected from the Federal government and repealing the 17th and having the US Senate once again represent the states is a good way to ensure that the 10th yields it's best fruits.

Yes I think this is in line next. Support Matt Shea and his bill that he started last session. Got bottled up in committee by Sam Hunt, the committee chair. We need to get more representatives behind this and get it to the floor for a vote.

Louise, do you remember which committe it was bottled up in? Sam Hunt Chairs three committees and to target more representatives we need to know which committee.

It was in the State Government and Tribal Affairs Committee. You do realize that if the legislature is unable to help us on this, we could do an initiative.

Ray, I have heard that both the house and senate are looking at resolutions of support this year. I have not yet seen anything but intend to make it a campaign issue against anyone legislator who votes against this.

I met Tawnya last week who is really working this issue hard through:

She needs help from constituents contacting state Reps from each District.

I've been pestering Cary Condotta about this since the last session. Cary and I had a nice visit a couple of months ago and he said there has been an upswing in interest on reaffirming our sovereignty. He's working very hard to get other legislators to sign on to it so it can be pushed, dragged, wrestled, or manipulated out of committee for a full vote
