WPSR's 2025 Legislative Kickoff: Join us on January 7th!
As the 2025 legislative session approaches, Washington Physicians for Social Responsibility (WPSR) is hosting a virtual legislative kickoff event on Tuesday, January 7th, from 6:00–7:30 PM. This engaging and informative session will prepare advocates to champion policies that address the critical intersections of climate, health, and economic inequity across Washington State. Make sure to add this event to your calendar!
This year, public health will be at the forefront of discussions in Olympia. Facing a difficult budget shortfall, lawmakers will be forced to make many difficult decisions. As health professionals, we advocate for our lawmakers to make choices that are good for our health and improve our climate and address economic inequities. We’ll be working to promote progressive taxation and housing, as well as the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions and climate adaptations to extreme heat.
Attendees will:
Gain insight into WPSR’s legislative priorities for 2025.
Hear from members of the Climate and Health Task Force and the Economic Inequity and Health Task Force about their key focus areas.
Learn actionable advocacy strategies to make an impact as a health professional or ally.
Whether you’re new to legislative advocacy or a seasoned advocate, this session will equip you with the tools and knowledge to make your voice heard during the upcoming session.
