I-001 repeals existing laws that ensure parents are informed when their child needs them most. Join Senator John Lovick and hundreds of elected officials, educators, counselors, domestic violence experts, doctors, and community groups in voting NO on I-001 when your ballot arrives.

A photo shows Senator John Lovick, a Black man with glasses, wearing a gray suit and speaking into a microphone. On top of the image, a text box quotes his op-ed from the Everett Herald. The headline reads: Lovick: Why this former sheriff is voting no on I-001. His attribution reads: Sen. John Lovick, Mill Creek, WA. The quote reads: “I urge voters to get the facts and reject this dangerous measure that would put thousands of vulnerable young people at greater risk of harm.”

WA state relies on Canadian tourism in places like Bellingham—but Trump is destroying that relationship. I caught up with local business owners to hear how Trump's insulting rhetoric is affecting business. The consensus? Stop bullying our Canadian friends. 🇨🇦 🇺🇸

it's two things, to me: 1) trans rights matter because trans people matter and deserve rights, not just because failing to stand for trans rights is a bellwether for inauthentic progressivism more broadly 2) if you can't be trusted on trans rights you can't be trusted on anything

Under I-001, schools would be required to release students' confidential information to parents. This initiative will discourage many students facing domestic violence, sexual abuse or bullying from seeking help from trusted school counselors. Vote NO on I-001 this November. #NoHateWAState

Linden Jordan, a man from Marblemount, WA, sits on a brown leather couch in front of a green plant. He is wearing a blue and gray plaid shirt. On top of the photo, a quote from his Letter to the Editor is written in white. It reads: “These children need a right to privacy. Vote NO on I-001.” At the bottom of the image, a white box displays the headline and news outlet. It says, “Skagit Valley Herald. Letter: Initiative 26-001 would be harmful to children. Linden Jordan, Marblemount, WA.”

Look, are we the laughing stock of the world? Yes. Are we losing a war we should’ve never started? Yes. Is all our food poison now? Yes. Are all the jobs going away? Yes. But the important thing is a blue-haired college student I made up in my head feels bad about memes.

Food is a right, not a privilege. We know many members of our reading community, including our bookselling partners, will be impacted ❤️ Here's how to help, and where to find help. ⁠

Food is a right not a privilege. With SNAP expiring, here's how to help and where to get help.

SNAP—the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program—will not be going out November 1st, leaving 42 million individuals without benefits to supplement their food income. We know this will impact many of our readers and bookselling partners.

Here's how you can help: 🫶🏻 Donate money or time to your local food bank, so they can keep your community fed. ❤️ Add food into free pantries, or start your own. ☎️ Contact your representatives at a local and state level to urge them to restore and fund SNAP and WIC. 🫂 Contribute to and get involved in mutual aid groups

And where to get help: 🥫 Many food banks are preparing for an increase in aid. They are here to help your community. 🥡 Visit a free pantry near you for shelf-stable products. 🍲 Many local businesses are offering free meals for those on SNAP. Ask around to see who is participating. 🛒 Companies like Gopuff and DoorDash are offering groceries to impacted individuals

If you want to get your sea legs on mutual aid, one thing you can do is throw a 24 pack of water and some individually packaged nonperishable snacks in your trunk and just keep your eyes open. Pulling over and offering water to a person in distress can be a much bigger help than you realize.
