Building an economy that works for everyone

Join us for Catalyze, EOI’s annual benefit event

catalyze-logo-date-time-special-guest

For over 17 years, EOI has fought for an economy that works for everyone. So far in 2015, the Washington Small Business Retirement Marketplace bill was signed into law, the number of states introducing our signature Pay It Forward higher education legislation increased to 27, we saw Tacoma finally pass a Paid Sick and Safe Leave policy, and we turned the topic of equal pay from an outdated issue into the Equal Pay Opportunity Act, which passed the Washington State House.

That’s great progress — and we have a lot more work to do to truly enhance basic living standards for all the people in our state still tackling obstacles to economic stability.

Join us to celebrate our shared commitment to building a stronger economy, support continued progress toward a stronger, healthier and more prosperous Washington for all, and spark change at our annual bash: Catalyze!
