During the fall, WA-CARE members contacted and met with several different legislators in an attempt to find a sponsor in the upcoming 2011 legislative session. Unfortunately we’ve been unable to find a sponsor yet that we feel confident will fully support WA-CARE’s goal of access to OBCs for every adopted adult.
We will continuing to contact other legislators and are hopeful we will find more support as well as someone to champion our bill. You can help by contacting legislators and asking where they stand on the issue and discussing it with them. If you’ve already contacted your own legislators, try branching out and contacting others.
WA-CARE also has been discussing the possibility of an initiative effort which appeals to us but would require a massive fund-raising effort. If anyone out there has fund-raising expertise – please use this blog to share your ideas or to offer up your knowledge, time and/or energy to the cause.
We also plan to research a possible lawsuit in the future. If you have other ideas, please feel free to share them on the WA-CARE blog site.
Our next meeting is scheduled for Thursday, January 13 at Noon. Meeting place to be announced, please check back for details.
