MLK Day: Poverty Action at the Capitol

We want 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 21st for their Poverty Action on the Capitol Day.  

One week from today, a free bus will leave Seattle from Solid Ground (at 1501 N 45th St. in Wallingford) at 7:30 am on Monday, Jan. 21. The bus will make stops in Tukwila, Kent, and Federal Way and 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 Senait) or registering online.

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 21st 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 visit povertyaction.org.
