We’re excited to be joining a critically important campaign. If passed this November, Initiative 2117 would remove billions of dollars of key investments into our local communities including local funding for:

• Forest health and fuels reduction
• Improving air quality in disadvantaged communities
• Reducing utility costs and funding energy efficiency upgrades for low- and middle-income families
• Clean energy and EV charging infrastructure
• Salmon recovery

Initiative 2117 is bankrolled by multi-million-dollar hedge fund manager Brian Heywood and seeks to strip away the Climate Commitment Act, a key part of meeting our statewide goal of reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 95% by 2050.

Between now and November 5 we’re joining a campaign to defeat this initiative alongside a growing coalition of over 400 small businesses, firefighters, Tribal Nations, doctors and public health leaders, labor unions, and environmental groups.

We need your help to spread the word about this campaign! We’ll be working with Rural People’s Voice to spread our message as wide as possible throughout Okanogan County! We need volunteers who can knock on doors in their neighborhood, phone bank to voters across Okanogan County or put up a lawn sign.  Whether you can devote an hour or two or some time every week we would love to get you involved. If you’re eager to engage in the election on a local scale, fill out the volunteer form below and we’ll be in touch!

Volunteer on our Campaign!
