Ready to fight to fix our ferries? We're getting organized, and we want you to join our movement. We invite citizen activists, advocates, city, county, and local agency leadership, Ferry Advisory Committees, small business owners, chambers of commerce, tourism agencies, and all ferry stakeholders to come together at the regional Fix Our Ferries legislative summit on November 16th.
This is a critical organizing opportunity to support ferry funding and advocacy. We will:
- Discuss 2025 legislative session priorities with legislators and local elected officials.
- Craft a shared advocacy agenda and plan joint media and grassroots actions.
- Learn together from our shared successes and challenges locally and regionally.
- Create vital regional connections and leave the day united in common purpose.

The Washington State Ferry crisis affects the economic health and quality of life of people and businesses across the state. Fruit from Yakima rots on Seattle docks. Patients miss critical medical treatments and ambulances are delayed on hospital runs. Children, students, and the elderly are stranded. Residents lose wages and jobs. Businesses lose employees and vital income. Island economies and the State of Washington lose tourist dollars. Our communities are sinking under this burden.
