Press Release
Washington voters now have a viable choice for people-first representation at all levels of government. The People's Party of Washington #PPOW registered its charter as a 527 tax-exempt political organization with the Washington Secretary of State’s office on May 20, 2021.
“The People’s Party gives voters a true choice to support a political party and candidates who pledge not to accept funding from big corporations,” said Marc Mixon, PPOW Chair.
The People’s Party of Washington will:
- Focus on policies and programs that help Washington residents, not corporate interests.
- Represent the interest of the 99% and create a system that values each person and supports economic and social justice for all.
- Is structured to make space for and actively solicit all voices to participate in a deliberative and dynamic democracy.
- Not be governed by a select few in party leadership as decision-making authority is shared among those working in the trenches.
- Vows to have no backroom deals and will maintain full transparency.
