| Organized Labor in Action |
The local branches of 1.4 million-member International Brotherhood of Teamsters is coming out in force to support Kevin Van De Wege and Steve Tharinger in the upcoming 24th District's state representative races. On Thursday, September 30, Teamsters Joint Council 28 and Teamsters 117 Clallam County Legislative are joining together in Forks to host a phone banking effort from 10am - 1pm at the Forks Transit Center. Breakfast will be offered by the Teamsters.
Please contact heather.weiner@jc28.org or lily.wilson-codego@teamsters177.org with questions.
The Van De Wege and Tharinger campaigns send out their thanks to the Teamsters for their incredible support.

Speaking of phonebanking, Van De Wege campaign manager, the legendary Larry Clark, and the lovely Sam Gibboney, campaign manager of Steve Tharinger, have sent word that they are looking for local volunteers to participate in virtual phonebanking efforts from the comfort of their homes. The always quotable Larry assures us that it is the campaigns' plan to reach out to thousands of local residents through virtual phonebanking, so they'll need help.
Please contact Sam and Larry directly if you're willing to volunteer.

The Clallam County Democratic Party threw its annual Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt Dinner this past weekend, which featured all the local limelights including a visit from Senator Maria Cantwell. Possibly the biggest star of the event was retiring state House Majority Leader Lynn Kessler, whose long history of sacrifice on behalf of the 24th District was honored by all attendees. Rep. Kessler promised that she would continue to play an active role in the 24th District affairs and trusted that her chosen successor, Steve Tharinger, would do a wonderful job replacing her in Olympia.

Keep the questions for the online Q&A coming in. We have another round tonight. Don't forget to send any interesting local news stories to me, either.
We'll also have an announcement from the Dicks campaign tomorrow.
