From the State Central Committee
The Supreme Court handed Republicans another major victory in their effort to rewrite our campaign finance laws.
The Court struck down longstanding limits on how national political parties can coordinate spending with candidates—a decision Republicans are already celebrating as a huge advantage heading into 2026.
We’ve seen this playbook before. Every time the rules change, it’s billionaire donors, corporate interests, and MAGA allies who stand to gain the most.
Here in Washington, we’re building something different.
We’re organizing in every corner of our state. We’re recruiting volunteers, training candidates, protecting vote-by-mail, and making sure we have the grassroots power to fight back against Trump and the MAGA movement—no matter how much outside money they pour into our elections.
That’s work powered by people like you, not billionaires.
If Republicans think this ruling means they can buy their way to victory, let’s prove them wrong.
Thank you for standing with us,
— Chair Shasti Conrad
In 2024, Washington Democrats led the nation with sweeping electoral victories. Now, we’re fighting to elect a supermajority in Olympia, protect our swing seats in the House, and stand up to MAGA extremism across the country.
WA Dems empowers grassroots organizing and elects Democrats up and down the ballot. Your support fuels our fight to stop Trump and defend our democracy.

MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIR
It’s Friday, Washington Democrats!
Happy 4th of July!
Big anniversaries are a time for reflection. It’s understandable to have complicated feelings about our nation right now as we near its 250th anniversary. But America has always been founded on renewal and self-improvement. This July 4, I am celebrating our nation’s independence by recommitting myself to making this country better. A version of our nation that lives up to its ideals of freedom and liberty for all, and a society that treats you based on your character and not your background or zip code. I invite you to join me.
Scheduling Note
In observance of Independence Day, Message from the Chair will be on hiatus until Friday, July 17. Follow our social media channels or website for any announcements. You can also find all our organizing events at wadems.org/events.
Democrats Fight Back
On Monday, the U.S. Supreme Court affirmed the right of states to count mail-in ballots postmarked by Election Day in Watson v. RNC. This is a huge victory for vote-by-mail states, but our fight is not over. Sabotage of the U.S. Postal Service means that all mail, not just ballots, are slow to get processed. Washington Democrats encourage everyone to vote as early as possible if they must vote by mail, or to use an official, secure ballot drop box.
The Spokane 3 exercised their First Amendment rights to assembly and free speech and were convicted of crimes. It turns out, the FBI was secretly going through data extracted from the cellphones of ICE protesters. This chilling story is a must-read, and I am proud of Mayor Lisa Brown and everyone in the Spokane community who are bringing attention to the trampling of our civil rights under the lawless Trump-Vance administration.
Attorney General Nick Brown has joined other Democratic AGs in suing the Trump administration over its unlawful Medicaid (Apple Health in our state) work rules. Losing Medicaid benefits can literally mean the difference between life and death. Our laws should not punish people who get sick.
Attorney General Brown also helped secure a key victory in this week’s blockbuster Supreme Court decision upholding the 14th Amendment and Birthright Citizenship. Washington state played a key role in stopping Trump’s blatantly unconstitutional Executive Order attempting to end Birthright Citizenship. Despite many suspect rulings from this conservative-packed Supreme Court, even they did not buy Trump’s baloney attempting to subvert the plain text of the 14th Amendment.
Working for Washington
What a convention! Thank you everyone who attended. Your energy and passion allowed us to adopt a visionary platform and prepare to win elections up and down the ballot in this year’s midterms. It was a full weekend from start to finish in Spokane, but we showed up, showed out, and demonstrated exactly what Democrats are capable of when we’re all working together.
We became the first Democratic Party in the nation to include reparations for U.S. chattel slavery in our platform (and we did it unanimously), trained more than 1,000 delegates to activate their communities, and we earned a lot of media coverage, helping get our message out across the state. None of this would have been possible without the professionalism and dedication of Washington State Democrats staff, our State Committee Members, and the delegates who represented their communities with distinction.
I especially want to thank the many luminaries of the Democratic Party both in Washington state and nationally who joined us at convention. Special thanks to DNC Chair Ken Martin for being our keynote speaker and Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal who rocked the house and got everyone on their feet. It was an incredible weekend and shows just how effective our State Party is at leading the Democratic movement nationally.
Last weekend was the Seattle Pride Parade, which drew hundreds of thousands of marchers to celebrate love and march in solidarity with our LGBTQIA+ loved ones and neighbors. WA Dems Field Organizers were on hand to celebrate, sign up volunteers, and organize to win elections up and down the ballot. This year, marchers felt a new sense of urgency to defend our communities from the hate and division spewing out of Washington, D.C. Here in our Washington, we know that love wins, and we are doing everything possible to protect our communities from hate in any form.

WHAT I’M WATCHING
Where testosterone and the Bible are the ‘new punk rock,’
The New York Times
While delegates gathered in Spokane to pass a progressive and forward-looking platform, white Christian nationalists were reveling in toxic masculinity and right-wing politics down the road at The Gorge. This was a chilling read and a good look at the type of society the right wants: one where women are silent, toxic masculinity is never questioned, and the foundational value of separating church and state is erased from our politics.
Thanks for all you do,

The Blue Print – Fighting to Restore the American Dream on our 250th Birthday
The Blue Print – Building a Stronger Democracy, Together
have you ever wondered where your money goes when you donate to the DNC?
This year, we launched our largest-ever voter registration program, When We Count, to register thousands of Democratic voters in key battleground states. Here we are onboarding the first group of voter registration fellows in Phoenix, Arizona.
We handpicked Arizona as our starting point for a reason: It’s a battleground state that Trump won in 2024 with a closeable voter registration gap. So we stepped up to do just that.
And in just a few weeks, we’ll be expanding the program to register even more voters.
Our When We Count voter registration fellows are organizing online and in-person, going to concerts, campuses, and even World Cup watch parties to register as many young people to vote as possible. The work these fellows are doing won’t just help Democrats win this year — it’ll help Democrats take back the White House in 2028.
So, if you’ve ever wondered where your donation goes, work like this is where. When you donate to the DNC, you’re helping fund our effort to elect Democrats in every corner of the country, at every level of government, every single year.
Thank you,
The Democrats

The Blue Print – Four Years Later: How Real Americans Are Impacted by the Dobbs Decision
We know your inbox is probably flooded with emails from campaigns and organizations asking for donations, but we’d like to explain why giving $10 to the DNC today is a worthy investment.
If you’ve invested before, then you’ve probably heard this a million times: Diversify, diversify, diversify. That wisdom applies to political donations, too. Much like investing in a S&P 500 index fund, when you donate to the DNC you’re investing in a diverse portfolio of programs that are working in tandem to elect Democrats up and down the ballot, across each corner of the country, every single year.
Essentially, a donation to the DNC (however small or large) works like an investment. Some of your money goes towards short-term programs we know will help us win elections immediately, like organizing in swing districts or suing to stop Trump’s election interference. The rest of your money is invested in long-term strategic projects that will pay off for decades to come, like building organizing infrastructure in growing states like Mississippi and Louisiana or registering young Democrats who will decide future elections.
Come this fall, the impact of your $10 could be priceless. In the last midterm elections, one race in Arizona was decided by just 280 votes. So, no matter how big or small, your $10 investment could be the $10 that registers that decisive voter, helps us win that crucial court case against Trump, or gives an organizer the resources to build long-term power across the South.
Thank you,
The Democrats
