Dear Friends and Neighbors,
In response to the draft Supreme Court opinion indicating a plan to overturn Roe and Casey, Governor Jay Inslee will join pro-choice advocates and elected officials at Kerry Park at 2:30 p.m. today to affirm that Washington State remains a pro-choice state dedicated to providing access to safe, affordable abortions.
Unfortunately, I am unable to attend, as I will be in the King County Council meeting. I am pleased that the event will be taking place in District 4, though. If you are able, you are welcome to go in person, or the conference will be livestreamed via TVW.
Gov. Inslee will be joined by:
- Attorney General Bob Ferguson
- Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal
- Congresswoman Marilyn Strickland
- King County Executive Dow Constantine
- Seattle Deputy Mayor Monisha Harrell
- CEO of Planned Parenthood Alliance Advocates Jennifer Allen
- Patient and board president of Planned Parenthood Alliance Advocates Jennifer Martinez
You can watch on TVW (Channel 23) or via livestream at the link below:

Sincerely,
