Legislative Information

The Washington State PTA is one of the largest grassroots advocacy organizations in our state. There are a large number of ways for you to participate in the process at a local, state and national level. We can all make a difference for our children and for every child in this state by periodically speaking up on legislative issues -- all it takes is a few minutes of your time.
