AFT Washington Lobby Day 2025 Registration

Lobby Day 2025

Monday, February 17, 2025 (Presidents' Day)

Olympia, Washington

Time: 8:00 AM - 4:00 PM

It's time to go to Olympia and lobby legislators on our key priorities for the 2025 session! Our priorities include:

• Pressing to resolve the crisis in staffing, safety, and inadequate salaries for preK-12 School Related Personnel.
• Working for substantial salary improvements for contingent faculty.
• Seeking pay increases for professional non-exempt staff in our colleges.
• Expanding eligibility for benefits to include non-instructional work done by contingent faculty.
• Working with Communities for our Colleges, pressing to make two-year colleges free for our students and creating pathways to work for undocumented college students.
• Working for increased progressive revenue.

Please plan to join with colleagues, meet with legislators, and push for progressive change. We will be meeting close to Olympia's Capitol campus and will provide training for lobbying legislators and our talking points. Light breakfast and lunch will be provided. Transportation will be coordinated as well.
