The "All Voices at the Table" campaign seeks to ensure that the next Governor of Washington appoints a transition team and cabinet that mirrors the state's rich diversity. We call on the next Governor to:
- Ensure that Black, Indigenous, South Asian, API, Native Hawaiian, and Latino/a/é Washingtonians make up at least 50% of each cabinet.
- Include representatives from the state’s five poorest zip codes and counties and the five most racially diverse zip codes in each cabinet.
- Explicitly recruit cabinet members from historically marginalized communities, such as people with disabilities, the LGBTQIA community, women and gender non-conforming people, young people, veterans, and low-wage workers.
This initiative addresses the immediate need for inclusivity in leadership and sets a precedent for governance that values and prioritizes equity, diversity, and inclusion. By signing this petition, I affirm my support for the goals of the "All Voices at the Table" campaign and call on the next Governor to commit to these demands.
