Tri-City Democrats – Friday, September 11, 6:00 PM

Greetings fellow Democrats!

It’s September, and time for our monthly gathering. We’ll meet on September 11 at 6pm.  We are inviting candidates who have made it through the primary to come visit with us. We will also have ‘Hate Has no Home Here’ and ‘Vote Blue’ signs available.

We are hoping that the weather will cooperate for a picnic at the farm – 4501 W Lattin Ct, West Richland, WA. If it’s hot, we have plenty of shade and misters and sprinklers to take the edge off the heat. If it’s cool, we have firepits and patio heaters to take the edge off the chill. We have the Pasco Round Table reserved in the event that the weather does not cooperate, and we’ll make a final announcement on Wednesday the 9th. Come gather with like-minded folks and share some fellowship, food and beverages. If we are picnicking, bring a dish to share, and Tri-City Democrats will provide utensils and plates, and napkins. If we’re at the pizza location, TCD will purchase an assortment of pizzas to share. You’re on your own for salad bar and beverages, though there are usually pitchers of beer provided by fellow members. We’ll have the donation box available for those who care to financially support the group.

We’re fighting hard to make sure that all eligible voters can have their voices heard.

That’s why, on Wednesday, September 16, we’re partnering up with Black Voters Matter for an event to make sure everyone knows their rights and is ready to take to the polls this November.

Will you join us? RSVP now to save your spot. (Please note: This link will take you to a third party website, mobilize.us.)

Please note: This link will take you to a third-party website, mobilize.us.

We’ve spent all year in courts, Congress, and legislatures protecting voters.

When the Supreme Court ruled in Callais v. Louisiana, dealing a blow to key voter protections, our teams packed state houses across the country with voters like you to fend off a new wave of discriminatory voting maps.

When President Trump tried to force Congress to pass the SAVE Act, an extreme voter suppression bill, ACLU supporters like you sent over 200,000 messages to your elected officials rejecting this legislation.

Now, we’re counting on our community to show up again to help everyone get ready for November to ensure that our democracy works for all of us. If you’re ready to keep showing up for voting rights, join us on Wednesday, September 16, 8 p.m. ET / 5 p.m. PT. (Please note: This link will take you to a third party website, mobilize.us.)

We’ll catch you there!

MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIR

It’s Friday, Washington Democrats!

Washington Elections Under Attack
This week’s edition of Message from the Chair will be a little different. Given the egregious assault on our election system enabled by Trump’s handpicked Supreme Court, I’m going to do a deep dive on this vital issue and how Washington Democrats are leading the charge to protect fair elections from federal interference.

BREAKING NEWS: The Postal Service rule on vote-by-mail has been temporarily prohibited by a federal judge. This is great news, but not the end of the battle. Follow us on social media for more updates!

In case you missed it, the conservative-led U.S. Supreme Court allowed Trump’s Executive Order, directing the United States Postal Service to not deliver mail ballots returned by voters who aren’t on pre-approved lists, to move forward. The court dismissed a previous ruling from a lower court because the states that sued (including Washington) had sued too soon. Let’s call this what it is: a cynical ploy to interfere with Washington’s best-in-the-country elections system.

So what would the Executive Order do? It ordered the U.S. Postal Service to implement a rule published late last Friday requiring states to follow a uniform style for envelopes used for mail ballots and give the Postal Service a list of eligible voters to receive them. It sounds innocuous until you realize this is the same voter information that Trump’s Department of Justice has been trying to force states to hand over, where court after court has sided with the states that refuse to do so.

The U.S. Constitution is blatantly clear that states administer elections, not the federal government. Now that we are just weeks away from ballots being sent out for the general election, this ruling threatens to throw our entire election system into chaos. Which is exactly the point. Republicans know they can’t win fair and square, so they have to do everything possible to drive down turnout and create excuses to invalidate votes.

WA Dems’ Communications Director Stephen Reed broke down the ruling and how Washington leaders are working to secure our elections. You can click the image above or go here to watch.

As soon as the Supreme Court’s decision came down, Washington’s Democratic leaders leapt into action. Governor Ferguson made it clear, “If these rules are allowed to stand, they will disenfranchise Washingtonians and lead to federal interference in our state elections.”

Attorney General Nick Brown summed it up by saying, “Fortunately, [this] decision does not bless the substance of the president’s actions, it simply says states must wait slightly longer to challenge them. We stand ready to take action to protect the integrity of our elections and prevent this clearly unconstitutional overreach from taking effect.”

And he was as good as his word, suing the Trump administration again over these mail ballot restrictions on Wednesday. Secretary of State Steve Hobbs joined AG Brown to say, “It’s clear that the federal government is trying to take over our elections. We are prepared to fight every step of the way to stop that from happening.”

Washington’s 5.1 million ballots are already printed and will be mailed to overseas voters in just three weeks. The lawsuit, joined by 25 states, argues, “Congress has not afforded USPS any authority whatsoever to set rules for federal elections or mail voting, even though Americans have cast ballots by mail for generations.” 

Secretary of State Steve Hobbs also said, “It’s clear that the federal government is trying to take over our elections. We are prepared to fight every step of the way to stop that from happening. Right now, our focus should be on delivering a secure, accessible, and accurate election for citizens. Instead, we are fighting the federal government, which is trying to turn our safe and secure election system upside down for no benefit. There is no reason to do this. Voter fraud is exceedingly rare and does not impact the outcomes of our elections. No matter how many times the federal government repeats the lie, it does not make it true.” 

Trump’s latest election integrity threat is to defund police for jurisdictions that do not comply with his efforts to rig our elections. Thankfully, threats like these have failed when challenged in court before. 

Here are some talking points you can use in your conversations with voters around this issue:

Democrats are fighting back and using every tool at our disposal to prevent Republicans from disenfranchising American voters.

• The DNC, alongside its partner committees at the DCCC, DSCC, and DGA, has renewed its legal action to stop Trump’s unlawful attempt to restrict mail-in voting through the Postal Service.
• Democrats will not stand by while Trump and Republicans sow chaos and confusion just weeks before voting begins. It is why we are asking a district court to immediately stop the Trump administration from unlawfully disrupting mail-in voting in every state.
• In addition, the DNC has sued the Trump administration over their threats to deploy armed troops and federal agents at polling places as well as their alleged plans to seize ballots in the midterm elections.

Trump and Republicans are trying to interfere with the midterms because they know they’re facing defeat in November as voters reject their harmful and costly agenda.

• Trump’s approval rating just dropped to a dismal 33% — the lowest of his entire presidency. 
• Less than 70 days out from Election Day, a majority of voters believe they’re financially worse off since Trump returned to office. 
• The average household in America has had to spend more than $3,100 extra on goods and services since Trump took office.
• Democrats are about 8-points up on Republicans in the general congressional ballot.

The American people are going to reject Republicans for their broken promises and failure to lower costs, protect healthcare, and improve the lives of hardworking families.

• While Republicans and Trump do nothing to improve the lives of the American people, Democrats are showing up and defending against any and all attacks on our elections and the sacred right to cast a ballot.

Stay tuned for more actions and information on this rapidly developing fight for our constitutional rights. Follow our social media accounts for the most up-to-date news and volunteer to help us turn out voters who will ensure our rights are protected for generations to come!

WHAT I’M READING

‘Purity test,’ ‘spiritual war’ and geoengineering: Spokane County GOP approves new value statements, The Spokesman-Review

Meanwhile, in Eastern Washington, our neighbors in Spokane are fighting for the future of their county against a GOP that passed a platform calling for “Biblical truth,” hand counting every ballot in every election, condemns “weather modification, geoengineering, and unexplained environmental harm,” and litmus tests like never accepting endorsements from Democratic officials, not supporting new taxes without repealing an equivalent amount, and numerous other extreme ideas. The whole article is worth a read as a reminder of the extremism we work against every day.

JoAnna Mendoda (AZ-06): As a 20-year military veteran and proud single mother by choice, Jo knows firsthand the challenges working families face every day. She’s spent her life showing up for her country and her neighbors—and now, she’s taking that same determination to D.C. to lower costs for families, expand access to health care, and protect Arizonans from attacks on affordability, democracy and care. Jo is the real deal: her seat is an essential pick-up in the fight to flip the House, and we know she’ll be a Care Champion once she’s elected. Join us to hear her story and get in on the strategy, too!

Manny Rutinel (CO-08): Manny is an attorney, advocate, and first generation American who’s passionate about serving his community and fighting for families. His race in Colorado’s 8th district is a key pickup opportunity for us to build a Care Majority in Congress. Growing up with a single mother, he’s inspired by hard work and grateful for opportunities that have allowed him to attend college, law school and now, represent Adams County in Colorado’s General Assembly. Since taking office, Manny has championed bills to expand Coloradans’ earned income tax credits, and build out the state’s child tax credit—getting money back for families facing a growing affordability crisis. Hear from Manny on why he’s fired up to fight for the American dream Donald Trump and his opponent incumbent Gabe Evans seem determined to destroy.

Together, we’ll map out the strategy to flip the U.S. House in November and pass real care infrastructure for working families—from affordable child care and paid family leave to health and elder care. 

You won’t want to miss this. Come learn how we will secure the care we deserve! RSVP to hear from two Care Champions running to flip essential Congressional seats!!

Together, we’re building a future where we all have the tools to be able to work, take care of our families, and contribute to our communities. See you on September 3rd!

A Message from the DNC National Training Team

Hello Democrats,

With less than 90 days left until Election Day, the DNC Training and Organizing Teams are preparing and recruiting current and aspiring campaign staff from across the country to ensure Democrats take back the U.S. House and Senate and win down-ballot races this year. 

Democrats need to recruit over 700 organizers nationwide in order to reach as many voters as possible this election. At the end of July, we hosted the second When We Count Organizer Training Bootcamp. We had 115 attendees participate in 10 sessions over the course of the two-day virtual program!

Young professionals and college seniors learned the ins and outs of effective campaign organizing and received professional development training to help them get their first campaign job. They also heard from experts like DNC Executive Director Roger Lau and had the opportunity to ask them questions and give advice about getting their start in organizing.

Congratulations to our When We Count Organizer Bootcamp graduates who will go on to work on important races across the country and help us win in 2026!
