Senate floor votes are coming ASAP to confirm Commissioners Anderson, Linville and Garcia.
Washington Wildlife First is trying to sink them because they aren't delivering an anti-hunting, preservationist agenda.
You need to call or write your state senator and urge them to confirm/vote yes on confirmation. Honestly, things can get worse in WDFW leadership, and if we lose them, it will happen.
Find your senator here:

https://app.leg.wa.gov/pbc/bill/9243Honestly, we shouldn't even have to waste our time doing this, they've already made it through hearings with "do confirm" recommendations. But if you sit on the sidelines and this goes sideways, no one to blame but ourselves. Especially do it if you've got a Democrat senator, they're absolutely who the anti's are trying to sway. Do it ASAP, hearings could be tomorrow afternoon (2/27).
Shout out to the Conservation Coalition of Washington for getting on top of this.
