Future Voter Program in WA’s public schools
Parents will likely be hyper-aware this year as their high school students are engaging in “youth voter registration.” This is legal and was passed through the Washington legislature in 2018 in HB 1513 in an effort to address low youth voter turnout and encourage participation of youth in the election process.
Universal Civic Voting could be coming to WA
Last session Conservative Ladies testified in opposition to SB 5209 on January 31st in the Senate State Government & Elections Committee. We believe this bill interferes with our First Amendment Rights. This bill would establish “universal civic duty voting,” which would require citizens to vote, by law. Of course, we think all citizens who are legally eligible to vote should exercise this duty and privilege. However, we do not believe it should be mandated and this law would create an “opt OUT” system, rather than opt in. A citizen would have to submit a waiver in order to get out of their “legal” obligation to cast a ballot.
Washington lawmaker proposes legislation to collect data on families unenrolling their children from public schools
This year, a republican, Stephanie McClintock, has proposed a bill that would ask families that have opted to withdraw their children from public schools WHY they’re doing so via a voluntary exit survey. She notes in her bill (HB 2038) that enrollment in private schools and the number of homeschooling families have increased while enrollment in public schools has simultaneously decreased.

Abortion Is Not on The Ballot
Nationwide, Democrats are running on the issue of abortion, the need to defend “reproductive rights.” Many candidates and elected officials seem to be utterly obsessed with preserving the ability of a woman (a term the left claim they cannot define, unless they are a biologist) to have an abortion at any time, for any reason. This is their platform issue because they are failing in every way and unless you live in a cave off the grid, you understand that regular American citizens are suffering and see the damage and destruction happening daily on the Democrats’ watch.

Seattle Teachers Strike on First Day of School
Sorry, Seattle Public Schools families, you'll have to wait a little longer to go back to school this year. As if it wasn't enough that you haven't had a normal school year since 2018-19, the Seattle Education Association is going to keep you and your kids in limbo...
