Silent Majority Foundation v. Inslee

Silent Majority Foundation filed a lawsuit in Thurston County superior court challenging Governor Jay Inslee’s most recent (March 11 and 23, 2022) emergency proclamations.


Under Revised Code of Washington (“RCW”), section 43.06, the Governor may declare a state of emergency; however, RCW 43.06.010 requires the Governor to “find” a state of emergency prior to declaring one. 


We are currently appealing Judge Murphy's decision in an effort to have the Court of Appeals determine whether or not there are limitations on the Governor's emergency powers.
