The ASUW Office of Government Relations wants to hear your Husky Story! Every year, the ASUW passes a legislative agenda which is what our student lobbyist advocates for in Olympia each winter. This agenda includes issues that many students face such as financial + housing insecurity, lack of mental health support, and delayed healthcare. The Husky Stories campaign is a way to collect students’ own experiences with these topics. Some of these stories will be used to create a booklet which would be given to legislators so they can see how issues on our agenda actually impact students’ lives.

You can win a $50 gift card to the University Bookstore, with more free prizes to come!

Also, join the Associated Students of UW (ASUW) on Friday, January 31st as we bus down to Olympia and lobby our legislators! We will be leaving the UW Seattle Campus at 7:00 AM, picking up UW-Tacoma students at 8:00 am, and arriving back into Seattle at around 6pm. Lunch will be provided. We will also host trainings on campus prior to lobby day to discuss our legislative agenda, talking points, and how to lobby as a student! Email Lexie Boswell at asuwogra@uw.edu with any questions. RSVPs will close on Friday, January 24th.
