Eastside March for Justice
Great to see so many people marching on Saturday. Thank you to everyone who stopped by the Indivisible Kirkland Kenmore booth. And special thanks to Sherry and Uzma for their help!

There were about 200 people there. Some highlights included much discussion on progressive funding for education, a strong commitment to a woman’s right to choose in the state of Washington, discussion on providing affordable housing, and discussion on how the delegation is watching DC carefully to see how the state is going to need to step in to offset cuts from the federal level in funding and policies. (The clean up and preservation of the Puget Sound was specifically mentioned in this discussion.) And in addressing the level of tension between political parties, Representative Slatter said: “Let’s be hard on the policy, not the people.”
On March 4, 2017, Indivisible Kirkland Kenmore debuted at our first community event at the Juanita Neighborhood Association.
On February 12, 2017, Indivisible Kirkland Kenmore hosted its first general meeting at the Juanita Community Club. We were thrilled and overwhelmed to have almost 100 people at that first meeting. It proved to be an emotional experience as people shared what brought them to Indivisible Kirkland Kenmore.
