THANK YOU TO OUR COMMUNITY

On Wednesday, December 9th, the Spokane Democrats Office was the victim of a bomb threat that resulted in catastrophic fire damage to our space. The volunteers who interacted with the suspect are physically safe and mentally recovering, as they have been utterly embraced by the entire community. Thank you. 

The property in our office is almost an entire loss. We are so grateful to the Washington State Democrats for so quickly jumping in to create a Spokane County Democrats Fire Fund to help us replace everything we lost. They have been fantastic in getting the word out and embracing our members with unequivocal support. 

Special thank you to Governor Jay Inslee as well, who has pledged to share news of the fund with his supporters to help us physically re-build. He personally called the Spokane County Democrats and offered goodwill, support, and well-wishes. We are fortunate to have so many amazing people across the state- the party, our governor, other county parties, our members, and our community. 

Please join the efforts of the Washington State Democratic Party and our incredible Governor Jay Inslee in contributing to the Spokane County Democrats Fire Fund.

Following the apparent attempted bombing this morning at the offices of the Spokane County Democrats, Spokane County Democrats Chair Nicole Bishop and Washington State Democrats Chair Tina Podlodowski issued the following statement:

 “We are so relieved that no one was harmed in this reprehensible act of violence. Our primary concern is for the safety of our volunteers and the broader community of Spokane. We urge every elected official and community leader to join us in condemning this apparently politically motivated act of violence. No one should have to fear for their life simply because they participate in our political process.”

 No one who was present in the Spokane County Democrats HQ suffered significant injuries, though we cannot confirm whether any other office in the Teamsters’ building was occupied at the time of the incident. Spokane County Democrats are and will continue to cooperate with local law enforcement as they investigate this apparent crime. For more information, please contact the Spokane Police Department.
