Gov. Inslee pleads with Washingtonians to avoid gathering for Thanksgiving, holidays
Governor Jay Inslee and his wife Trudi pleaded with Washingtonians on Thursday night to refrain from gathering with people outside their households for Thanksgiving and the December holidays as COVID-19 cases continue to climb.

“Simply put, we have to rethink these holidays so that we may be thankful when we don’t lose more lives to COVID,” Gov. Inslee said.
Inslee did not announce new COVID restrictions as part of his address, but did mention that he’ll be announcing further action in the next few days.
“Please don’t gather with people outside of your household, it’s just too dangerous,” the governor said.
