2026 Washington State Endorsements

General Election: Tuesday, November 3rd

We support state and local candidates who consistently take responsible positions on reproductive health care, including abortion, birth control, and sex education. Through our endorsement process we find, educate, endorse, and support candidates who will join us in supporting Planned Parenthood, its patients, and the communities we serve as we work in pursuit of sexual and reproductive health, rights, and justice for all people.

BALLOT INITIATIVES

Vote NO on I-001 and I-638.

While Washington families are struggling to pay for food, housing, and health care, a MAGA mega-donor is spending millions on two poorly written initiatives.

  • I-001 removes common sense protections for child abuse victims.
  • I-638 could put girls at greater risk of harm by requiring invasive genital exams to play sports.

Join nurses, doctors, mental health experts, teachers, and violence prevention groups in voting NO on I-001 and I-638.

Vote NO on I-645

Hedge fund manager and multi-millionaire Brian Heywood is behind I-645, which would give him and his wealthy friends a tax break while increasing taxes and costs for the rest of us.

I-645 would:

  • Cut funding on K-12 schools, health care, and childcare
  • Increase taxes on working families and small businesses
  • Give the top one percent a tax cut while the rest of us pay more

Say NO to cuts to education, healthcare, and increased taxes on working families. Vote NO on I-645
