'Don't agonize, organize.' State Democrats' Tacoma convention offers rally cry after Roe
Jun. 25What was meant to be a celebratory in-person rally for Washington state Democrats gathering in Tacoma over the weekend became instead an intense round of motivational speeches, coming on the heels of recent Supreme Court decisions culminating with Friday's decision overturning Roe v. Wade.
State, local and national party leaders were on hand Saturday to reiterate that the fight to protect reproductive rights was front and center and on the ballot in upcoming elections.
The topic even was woven into the convention's land acknowledgment delivered by Puyallup Tribe Chairman Bill Sterud.
"The Puyallup Tribe has always had great women leaders," he said, adding "and women should have the right to decide what you want to do with your bodies."
