From the Washington State PTA website on Advocacy:
Learn about our legislative priorities and other supported issues and find out more ways to get involved on the Take Action page. Our advocacy work is directed by our member-approved resolutions, principles, and legislative platform. In 2021 we introduced our Focus on Advocacy program.During the Washington state legislative session, WSPTA will send action alerts and informational broadcasts to WSPTA members who have subscribed to WSPTA’s Action Network Group. These action alerts are quick, easy ways to communicate with your legislators on topics they are actively working on.
To learn more about WSPTA’s effectiveness in advocating, end of session reports are located on the Advocacy & Legislative Resources page, letters to policymakers represent our Advocacy in Action, and learn more about our federal legislation efforts here.
The Washington State PTA 2023-2024 WSPTA Legislative Platform is a two-year platform to mirror the Washington state legislative cycle. In the even-numbered years, the new platform is voted on by members at the legislative assembly in the fall. The top five issues become our short-term platform and consist of our priority issues when advocating throughout the year. Other issues are placed on an “also supported” list.
