Poverty Action on the Capitol Day (MLK Day) 1/20/14

 Hi I‘m calling to encourage you to take action to end poverty this Martin Luther King Day! Come to Olympia with the Statewide Poverty Action Network on Monday January 20th for their “Poverty Action on the Capitol” Day.

In just a week and a half, a free bus will leave Seattle from Solid Ground (at 1501 N 45th St. in Wallingford) at 7:00 am on Monday, Jan. 20. The bus will return around 5:00 pm the same day. You must sign up for the bus in advance by calling Poverty Action at 206-694-6794—Ask for Emiko, or signup online at povertyaction.org/lobbyday

Breakfast and lunch will be provided. Children are welcome. Come to learn about policies that affect low-income people, network with people from across the region and share your story with lawmakers.


We hope you will turn out on January 20th to call upon the state legislature and the Governor to make ending poverty a priority. For more information call Poverty Action at 206-694-6794 or email mlkday@povertyaction.org
