Public workers never quit, even when the government quits on us. WFSE Local 889 is holding a food drive to support our local food banks through NW Harvest. Please consider bringing a donation into your local King County area DCYF or DDCS office, or donating monetarily through our treasurer Michele.

Support staff keep WA running and it’s time to fight for them. Governor Ferguson can order OFM to honor the raises we negotiated. Call 360-902-4111 to tell Ferguson to make OFM do the right thing.

There’s still time to call the Governor and tell him to honor negotiated raises for secretaries in state government! Support staff keep Washington running, and this is the first targeted increase they’ve received in over a decade. Text SECRETARY to 237263 to get all the info and take action!

Have you called Governor Ferguson today?
His Office of Financial Management is denying those in the secretary job classes their negotiated pay raises. Call 360-902-4111 to tell Ferguson to make OFM do the right thing, or send a letter actionnetwork.org/letters/gov-...

We keep fighting.
