Topic: “Order in The Court!”
We have a once-in-a-generation opportunity to bring balance to the Washington State Supreme Court.
FIVE SEATS (of nine) ON THE COURT ARE ON THE 2026 BALLOT.
Please join us for a dynamic evening with one of Washington State’s most respected leaders, Dann Mead Smith and his Special Guests!
Supreme Court Candidates Dave Larson and Scott Edwards are joining Dann to talk about why it is so important that we capture this generational opportunity to add new voices to the Supreme Court. There is a focused effort to support these candidates called Full Court Press. Plan to come early to visit with these judicial candidates, as well as each other!
Please register early to join us.
BIOGRAPHY
Dann Mead Smith
During over two decades as President, Dann Mead Smith honed the Washington Policy Center into the trusted action-focused think tank it is today. Scores of WPC recommendations are now law, putting paid to the claim that Dann built one of the most impactful think tanks in the country.
In 2021, he stepped away to establish his own firm. The Mead Smith Group under Dann’s leadership is now at the epicenter of efforts to save our state from the aftermath of forty years of one-party rule. It’s time to act to restore balance and common sense.
Dann’s primary client is Project 42, a 501c4 advocacy, capacity building, nonprofit organization that he co-founded in 2020. Some of the nonprofit groups launched and supported by Project 42 include: Change Washington, Citizen Action Defense Fund, League of our Own/WA and Full Court Press.
