Brothers and Sisters,
The economic impact of Alcoa closing its Italco aluminum smelter this June will be devestating for Whatcom County. It means a loss of over 700 family wage union jobs. It will also mean handing over one more large aspect of infracsture overseas and once again putting our country in a challenging spot when it comes to providing ourselves needed resources.
Senators Murray and Cantwell, as well and Congress Members Larsen and DelBene are working on a higher level to mimimize the impact this could have. You can do somethingm, too: Please take action using the following action oriented website:

LMK if you have any questions.
In Solidarity,
Colin Lowin, PAC Chair
