To All Members,
IN A MEETING WITH THE UNITED LABOR LOBBY OF THE WASHINGTON STATE LABOR COUNCIL, WHICH ARE THE LOBBYIST’S THAT REPRESENT AND WORK IN THE BEHALF OF ALL THE REPRESENTED LABOR UNIONS AFFILIATED WITH THE COUNCIL. I PROVIDED AN UNDERSTANDING AS TO WHY THEIR SUPPORT OF OUR SAFETY LEGISLATION IS NEEDED, AS IT DIRECTLY AND INDIRECTLY INVOLVES THEIR MEMBERSHIP, FAMILY AND FRIENDS. THEY HAVE PLEDGED THEIR SUPPORT AND WILL ASSIST IN THE LEGISLATIVE PROCESS OF OUR BILLS IN THE 2020 LEGISLATIVE SESSION. HB 1841, 2-PERSON TRAIN CREWS AND HB 1843, RAILROAD WORKER SAFE LEAVE BILL.
IN ADDITION TO THIS EFFORT, IT IS CRITICAL THAT ALL MEMBERS, THEIR FAMILY AND FRIENDS CONTACT THE LEGISLATORS OF THEIR LEGISLATIVE DISTRICTS. PROVIDE AN UNDERSTANDING AS TO WHY OUR LEGISLATION IS IMPORTANT, AND HOW IT IMPACTS NOT ONLY RAILROAD WORKERS, BUT THE PUBLIC AS WELL.
THEY NEED TO HEAR YOUR STORIES AND MEMORIES, THE REAL LIFE ACCOUNTS OF THE DAY TO DAY RIGOURS OF OUR INDUSTRY AND HOW IT AFFECTS US AND THE COMMUNITIES WE OPERATE IN AND THROUGH.
EVEN IF THEY DO NOT SUPPORT OUR SAFETY LEGISLATION, IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT THEY KNOW HOW YOU FEEL, AS TO ITS IMPORTANCE. YOU ARE A CONSTITUENT AS IS YOUR FAMILY AND FRIENDS, THAT HAVE A SAY IN HOW YOUR REPRESENTATIVES IN THE STATE HOUSE OR SENATOR IN THE STATE SENATE RECEIVES YOUR CONCERN AND ACTS UPON ITS IMPORTANCE.
