Treatment First Washington has decided to redirect our energy to securing passage of the Treatment and Recovery Act as a bill introduced by Washington State Legislators in the 2021 session, which begins January 11. Although we’re discontinuing efforts to place the Treatment and Recovery Act on the November 2020 general election ballot as Initiative 1715, we will continue working to replace arrests and incarceration for drug use with treatment, recovery, and education.

As we move into the electoral season and prepare for the upcoming legislative session, we will be updating supporters twice a month with news about the campaign and actions to take. Our next step will be to engage candidates who are running to represent you in Olympia and prepare for passage of the Treatment and Recovery Act in 2021.

Help us spread the word about the Treatment and Recovery Act by adding a frame to your Facebook profile picture and requesting a Treatment First WA bumper sticker!
