Spokane residents are being sued over medical debt they didn’t even know existed, and it’s time for a change.

Too many families in our community are facing aggressive legal action from debt collectors—often over small or disputed medical debts. These lawsuits are filed using automated systems that target hardworking Spokane residents, leaving them with little chance to defend themselves. In some cases, people are at risk of losing their homes, wages, and livelihoods over debts they never even knew about.

This is a crisis that’s affecting everyday people, and it’s time for us to stand up and protect the most vulnerable among us.

That’s why I’m calling for the creation of the "Spokane Medical Debt Protection Ordinance"—a local law designed to:

 1. Prevent Unfair Lawsuits: Stop debt collectors from filing automated lawsuits without proving the debt is valid.

 2. Protect Local Families: Ensure Spokane residents are not at risk of losing their homes or wages due to small, unverified medical debts.

 3. Bring Accountability to Debt Collectors: Hold companies accountable for aggressive tactics that harm people’s financial stability.

I am fighting for fairness, and I need YOUR support to make it happen. By signing this petition, you will be helping to bring this ordinance to the Spokane County Commissioners. We need your voices to make sure our community is heard and that these predatory practices end.

Together, we can protect Spokane families from the burden of unfair medical debt lawsuits.

Sign now, and let’s make this ordinance a reality. Share this petition, spread the word, and let’s ensure Spokane remains a community that cares for its residents.

Call to Action:

   •   Sign the petition: Help us gather as many signatures as possible.

   •   Share this petition with your friends and family to build support.

   •   Join the movement: Let’s make Spokane a place where people’s financial health is protected from ruthless debt collection practices.

Together, we can create real change.
