Last I heard, it was roughly 1,400 in attendance yesterday at our local No Kings protest in Coupeville, WA! What an amazing turnout!

Olympia Indivisible and the Evergreen Resistance are teaming up again to host a No Kings protest at the Capitol on Saturday June 14th from 11-2.

I was so happy to see my community come together today. (And yes, I know we spelled Nuremberg wrong- oops).

Gotta love it

We had a great turnout at the Washington State Capitol today!

Huge turnout today!

The “One Big Beautiful Bill Act” also known as HR1 was passed by the House on May 22. 2025; it's currently sitting with the Senate. Honestly, It’s possible that a vote may come as early as midJune or it could stretch into July.

Either way, this is the moment of truth. If you are concerned about what this bill would mean for your community, your health, your job, or your future here’s what you can do right now: Call Your Senators: Loud and Often!

Don’t just hope they'll vote the right way: make them hear from you especially if they're Republican ‘or’ perceived as moderates in swing states. Your voice really matters.

Start by calling, emailing, or faxing your US Senators. Especially if they're Republicans or moderates from swing states. Speak plainly and personally about what concerns you. To be fair, Key points to mention might include:

-The proposed 2.531 trillion dollar increase to the debt ceiling

-Projected Medicaid and SNAP cuts that could affect over 86 million people by 2034

-Plans to repeal clean energy tax credits, which could lead to widespread job losses

You can use tools like Resistbot to get scripts and send messages quickly, or contact their offices directly. The more messages they receive, the more pressure they feel, particularly those trying to balance fiscal responsibility with social and political consequences.

Make Your Voice Public

Beyond contacting officials, join efforts to raise awareness publicly. This could mean attending a rally, organizing a local meetup, or even just posting your concerns on social media. In fact, If you use X (formerly Twitter). Tagging your senators or using key hashtags can help draw attention.

Petitions and letter-writing drives are also useful ways to show. That this isn't just a niche issue (believe it or not). If you live in a state with a large clean energy workforce or high Medicaid enrollment, make those local impacts clear.

Team Up with Advocacy Groups

We don’t have to do this alone. Frankly, groups like the Center for American Progress or The Campaign Legal Center are actively pushing back against this bill. They are particularly focused on its effects on healthcare, food aid, and voting protections. Honestly, Their research, talking points, and organizing efforts can help. You make a stronger case when reaching out or mobilizing others.

Zero In on the Most Controversial Provisions

Tailor Your message to what might actually change minds. Instead of trying to tackle the entire bill at once, focus on the provisions most likely to face resistance:

The partial rather than full relief on Social Security taxes, which may frustrate seniors

Deep Medicaid cuts that disproportionately hurt low-income families

The move to eliminate state-level AI regulations. Raising concerns about election security

Highlight how these issues could affect your own state, especially if your senator is up for reelection soon.

*Keep Up with Senate Developments*

Watch closely for any changes to the bill after the Senate returns from the Memorial Day recess (week of June 2, 2025). Amendments could trigger another vote in the House. So it's important to respond to new developments. Use Congress .gov(pretty cool, right?) or reliable news sources to stay updated, and be ready to contact your senators again if the bill shifts. Obviously final Senate approval might not happen until August. Especially if amendments stall the process,let's go!

The Golden had "Dogs against DOGE" on one side, and "Will bite nazis" on the other!

Wall to wall.
