Fuse's 2018 General Election Endorsements

Fuse has released its endorsements ahead of the 2018 General election. Fuse's criteria for endorsements include:

Activists aren't just waving signs; they're banding together to help immigrants at the ground level

Most dramatically, over 1,000 people attended Spokane's version of the Families Belong Together/Familias Unidas No Divididas rally in Grant Park. And behind the poster boards and the rally speeches, advocates have been constructing a network focused on helping local immigrants directly.

Demonstrators leave shoes at Cathy McMorris Rodgers' office to protest immigration policy

About 25 people delivered children's shoes to Congresswoman Cathy McMorris Rodger's office on Thursday afternoon. The rally was called 'Walk a mile in our shoes' and organizers with Fuse Washington are calling on the Eastern Washington Representative to propose legislation to end the Trump administration’s 'zero-tolerance' immigration policy.

Net neutrality protest draws two dozen to McMorris Rodgers’ office

The protest was a response McMorris Rodgers’ opposition to previous federal rules regarding net neutrality that protesters argued ensure equal access to the internet. The repeal of those rules, say protesters, will allow internet service providers to block websites or apps, control the speed of certain websites and create a faster version of the internet for people who pay more, and a slower version for those who don’t.

Fuse Washington, an advocacy organization, hosted the protest, which drew about 25 people.

'Liberty: The 51st State' -- Republicans to hear plan to split Washington

Two Republican Party luminaries, U.S. Rep. Dan Newhouse and U.S. House candidate Dino Rossi, will be the warm-up acts at a Wenatchee GOP dinner for a state legislator who wants to split Washington into two states.

Fuse Washington put a call out for people to rally after Rossi did not respond to a request for comment regarding funding from the gun industry.
