šŸ”„RAISE THE WAGE RENTON UPDATE! šŸ”„

šŸ“£We are running out of time to transfer a MASSIVE $90 million EVERY YEAR from the corporate elite to the working class, especially the most marginalized minimum wage workers! THIS IS OUR LAST CHANCE TO QUALIFY FOR THE BALLOT! šŸ“£

Sign up to help socialists deliver for workers here:

Thurs. Oct 12Ā (5 - 8 PM)Ā  RSVP
Sat. Oct 14 (10 AM - 1 PM) RSVP


ā° HOW MUCH TIME DO WE HAVE LEFT?ā°

  • It depends on how long it takes the county to validate all of our signatures.
  • If we don't have enough, they'll give us a 10-day window to submit another batch of signatures.
  • Last time they took 18 days, but we suspect they might move a little bit faster this time around.
  • To hit our target of 4,000 raw signatures and provide cushion for rejected signatures,Ā we need to collect another 1,700 signatures!

šŸ“ SAVING SIGNATURES! šŸ“

  • Can't make it down to Renton? Want to help out remotely? We have a plan for you!
  • Signatures are invalidated because signatures don't match the voter file, signers weren't registered to vote, or a signer's signature expired!
  • We have a team of volunteers contacting these folks and working with them to save those signatures!
