Trustees

The Washington State Nurses Associ­a­tion Polit­ical Action Committee (WSNA PAC) was founded to make endorsements and financial contributions in statewide elections.

The WSNA PAC is a nonpartisan group, which supports candidates supportive of the legislative and regulatory agenda of the Washington State Nurses Association. Endorsed candidates are strong on nursing and patient safety issues.

All WSNA PAC funds are raised independently from individual contributions, not through member dues.
