JulieLeung.com: a life told in tidepools

Yesterday I called the Washington state legislative hotline – 1-800-562-6000 – to express my opposition to a potential bill that would affect homeschooling options. I confess that this is the first time I’ve phoned the hotline but it won’t be my last. It was easy to do: with a few moments spent standing in my kitchen, I’ve gone on record and participated in the process. Showing up at the hearing, as some other homeschoolers did, or writing a letter, might have been a more effective response, but perhaps we will try those too in the future. I don’t often write about politics on this blog but I wanted to post this note to encourage others to call.
