“I am so proud to support the Womxn’s March on Seattle, a sister march to the Women’s March on Washington. I will be at the national march in Washington DC alongside Planned Parenthood, other women’s rights organizations, and thousands of people who have traveled from all over the country.

“And though I wish I could be alongside you in my home state, I know that in Seattle, and in twenty other cities across Washington state, women and families will make themselves heard – that women’s rights are human rights.

“We march on Saturday for peace and equity, in opposition to divisive, hateful rhetoric that has recently become too common in our political and social spaces. Know that I stand with you, and will keep fighting for you in Washington DC.”
