Contacting the Governor

On January 15, 2025, a new governor will take office. Ceremonial requests and requests for Governor Inslee to attend meetings and events after January 15 will be denied. Once the governor-elect is sworn in on January 15, you can once again submit meeting and ceremonial requests but may experience a change in how requests are processed. Thank you for your understanding and flexibility during this transition. If you have questions, please contact us at (360) 902-4111.
