Released Today: The Final Report to the 2026 Legislative Session – "The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly" by Brad Payne, President of FPIW Action. Despite a significant number of discouraging bills headed to the Governor’s desk, Christians across our fine state planted a vast number of “seeds” that, with prayer, will ultimately germinate and become a bountiful harvest. That is not my promise, it is God’s. Galatians 6:9 (NIV) states: “Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.” I did not witness our conservative legislators, their staff, our Defenders, our Capitol Prayer Tour teams, and other Christian organizations “giving up” this year. In fact, I believe we all fought to the point of weariness with dogged determination and a will to see righteousness prevail. Link: fpiwaction.org/2026-final-rep…

Boeing use to anchor entire ecosystems … Now the company looks like nothing the founders created on the banks of the Duwamish [River in King County WA].” youtube.com/watch?v=6N0k1j…

Update on alleged daycare fraud in WA. “Washington has a pretty low birth rate, but even considering that, every Somali woman in Washington would have to have 28 children to have natural supply and demand to explain that number of Somali daycares.” mynorthwest.com/john-curley/so…
