Washington Civil Rights Council

WCRC Wrap Up and What’s Next

Mission Accomplished

This is Larisa and Victoria looking back at the amazing journey from 2020 through the present. We discovered an inner strength greater than we thought we had and a community more generous and supportive then we expected. With gratitude, we are providing an update on Washington Civil Rights Council (WCRC) as it stands today. 

WCRC was born out of an urgent need to protect civil rights and medical freedom in Washington State when those liberties were under immediate threat. Our mission was to inform people about the unlawful nature of the mask and vaccine mandates. WCRC is now on a hiatus.

We initially focused on empowering everyday Washingtonians to exercise their right to decline medical mandates – vaccines or masks – and we accomplished that through education and practical tools. Tens of thousands of people accessed our materials, and for years afterward, many shared stories of successfully keeping their jobs due to those resources. One of our most significant achievements was contributing information that helped Boeing independently decide to discontinue its vaccine mandate. This then influenced countless other employers to drop their mandates, demonstrating how impactful grassroots efforts can be.

We also sought to support those working primarily in government, education, and medical sectors that lost their jobs despite our collective efforts. We assisted roughly fifteen Pro Se lawsuits and achieved several moderate-size settlements. However, as we engaged with entities such as DSHS, DOC, and the Port of Seattle, we encountered systemic corruption in the judicial process. Judges dismissed cases on technicalities, ignored scientific evidence, and refused to question vaccine policies, narrowing arguments to procedural minutiae rather than questions of rights and facts. These experiences revealed just how entrenched political and judicial biases had become, with many judges directly appointed by officials aligned with the very policies being challenged.

While we have focused a lot of time in the last few years on legal matters, when we look at the whole span of WCRC’s existence we are most inspired by the true power that we experienced of bringing community together in the spirit of selfless collaboration. Our Town Halls were a bright spot for many in a dark time when people needed inspiration and camaraderie. Should it be necessary, we stand ready again to take a more active role in defending civil rights and medical freedom.

What’s Next

Join the movement to shift the course of Washington State politics. For decades, the state has drifted steadily left—and took a sharp turn during COVID. Now, a growing number of citizens are taking real action, recognizing that true change starts locally—with neighbors and precincts, not politicians and pundits. That’s the driving spirit behind this new effort: channeling the same determination that once powered the WCRC community into a renewed grassroots push for accountability, balance, and freedom.

Victoria, now serving on the executive board of the King County GOP, embodies that approach. Through consistent engagement—attending city council meetings, building relationships, and calmly presenting reason amid rhetoric—she’s proven that respectful persistence works. This movement has already helped several City Council members adopt more moderate positions in response to the growing Democrat-socialist influence. When good people show up, speak truth to power, and participate, they shape outcomes, temper extremism, and restore balance.

Engagement isn’t theory—it’s power in motion. The renewed Republican Party in Washington is being rebuilt by everyday citizens stepping up as Precinct Committee Officers (PCOs)—local volunteers who represent their neighborhoods and help choose party leadership. Currently, only 25% of King County precincts have a Republican PCO. Expanding that number is key to restoring transparency and sanity in state politics. The fight for freedom in Washington isn’t over—it’s evolving.

As Victoria reminds us: when good people stand together, the system listens. Moving forward, Victoria will continue communicating with the WCRC community, inviting those who once stood for medical and civil rights to channel that same energy through the GOP’s grassroots structure to promote fair elections, government accountability, and personal liberty.
