WHY YOUR SUPPORT MATTERS NOW
A stronger voice for care in Washington.
Washington’s long-term care providers are facing some of the toughest budget and policy pressures in more than a decade. State revenues are tightening. Competing priorities are crowding the legislative agenda. Regulatory expectations continue to rise while providers navigate workforce shortages, rising costs, and mounting public scrutiny.
In this environment, having a unified, powerful voice in Olympia is essential. WHCA-PAC ensures that the people making decisions about Medicaid funding, workforce policy, and facility oversight clearly understand the realities providers face. Strong engagement from members fuels strong advocacy. When our sector speaks with one voice, lawmakers take notice – and long-term care residents and caregivers benefit.

EVEN IN TOUGH TIMES – THERE IS OPPORTUNITY
Unified engagement creates real impact.
While the budget outlook is challenging, the path forward is clear: strong, unified member engagement creates real impact. The more members who step up, the more effectively WHCA can drive solutions that support care quality, stabilize the workforce, and strengthen long-term care for residents across Washington.
The number of people who will require long-term care supports and services is staggering. Our work together to ensure access to skilled nursing and assisted living care is critical.
