Take Action Snohomish County

Take Action Links:

We have created an on-line petition that we want to present to all elected officials along the journey of this battle. 
 
http://www.thepetitionsite.com/28/protect-our-communities-and-stand-against-lewd-barista-stands
 
Please take the time to sign the petition.  Remember, anyone of a legal age, 18, can sign the petition.  This means multiple people in your household.  Please talk with neighbors, other businesses around you etc.  You can also forward the petition to others.  I would love to see 500 signatures by the Dec. 2 meeting.  Beside many of us being at the meeting in person, the petition can help to speak for those who can not attend. 
 
Thank you for taking the time to join with us in the fight to protect our children and our communties.
