Washington State Chapter

Washington's forests, salmon and climate need all of us.

For more than 70 years, Sierra Club members across Washington have spoken up, shown up and gotten outside together. More than 81,000 supporters strong, we're heading into 2027 ready to push for bold action.

Your gift goes twice as far. Our board and committed supporters will match the first $45,000 given by December 31.

What we won together this year

You spoke up, wrote letters, made calls and funded attorneys. Here's what that made possible.

FEBRUARY

Vital court win for salmon

A federal judge ordered Columbia and Snake river dams to spill more water, protecting fish runs that had been put back at risk.

MAY

Dam replacement research saved

After federal funding was cut, we secured state money to keep studying how to replace the services the lower Snake River dams provide.

SEPTEMBER

Local clean energy choices protected

The Washington Supreme Court struck down Initiative 2066, preserving communities' right to phase out natural gas.

OLYMPIA

Wins in the legislature

We clawed back data center tax breaks, secured millions for the Trust Land Transfer program, and closed loopholes in our climate laws.

SPRING AND FALL

Standing up for forests 

We fought to save the Roadless Rule, which protects pristine forest across Washington, and we're ready for the legal battle ahead.

Help us build on this in 2027.
