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.
