Standing for Washington collected signatures in multiple cities to get initiatives on local ballots this November 2024.
These initiatives would enact ordinances into law that give legal standing to our watersheds to enforce their rights to exist, thrive, and flourish – so they can perform their essential, basic watershed functions.
