Organizers of the Resisting Threats to Democracy committee will host a “Democracy Power-Up!” virtual town hall on Wednesday, March 25, from 6:30-8 pm. 

Almost a year ago, as the Trump administration expanded its assaults on our democracy and the LWVUS deemed our nation was facing a constitutional crisis, LWVWA leaders began meeting weekly to consider how they could best guide members to respond.   

Born from that was the Resisting Threats to Democracy committee, which meets weekly and produces the Resisting Threats to Democracy newsletter. 

The town hall comes as the Legislature nears the end of its session end, providing members the opportunity to plan collectively for the remainder of 2026.  

Organizers Alison McCaffree, who leads the state Lobby Team’s Democracy effort, and Wendy Colbert from the Snohomish County League, said members will also be able to ask questions and meet in breakout groups to determine those next steps. 

Register here to attend. The end of the legislative session will also mark the return of the RTD newsletter, which has been on hiatus since Jan. 8.
