Mole's Progressive Democrat

The Progressive Democrat Newsletter grew out of the frustration of the 2004 election. Originally intended for New York City progressives, its readership is now national. For anyone who wants to be alerted by email whenever this newsletter is updated (usually weekly), please send your email address and let me know what state you live in (so I can keep track of my readership).

    Washington State Focus: John McCoy - Washington State House District 38

    This comes from the Indigenous Democratic Network, an organization that works to elect Native American Democrats to office:

    We've supported him since our founding in 2005, and we are so proud once again to endorse Washington State Rep. John McCoy, a member of the Tulalip Tribe, in seeking his fifth term in office.

    During the last session, Rep. McCoy sponsored legislation that created a new state law expanding the authority of tribal police. They can now arrest anyone on the reservation, not just tribal members.

    We want John to continue his work for the safety of American Indians in Indian Country, for education, and for health care, and we are happy to help him in his electoral efforts.


    John McCoy was honored as "Legislator of the Year" by Washington Conservation Voters. He has also been endorsd by NARAL Pro-Choice Washington, Washington State Toopers Association, Washington Education Association Political Action Committee (WEA-PAC), Washington Council of Police & Sheriffs, Snohomish County Conservation Voters, and many others. To find our more, please visit Rep. McCoy's campaign website.
