Fundraiser for Rep. Amy Walen

WHCA is proud to co-host a fundraising event for Representative Amy Walen, who is running for re-election in the 48th Legislative District (the Eastside of King County — home to a significant share of our host community).
Rep. Walen served on the House Finance Committee and stood with our community in opposition to the proposed statewide short-term rental tax. Supporting her re-election is one of the most tangible ways we can keep relationships strong with lawmakers who understand our industry.
Event details:
- Date: Tuesday, June 2, 2026
- Time: 4:30 – 7:00 PM
- Location: Kirkland, WA (address provided upon RSVP)
- RSVP: fpa-team@folkestadpa.com
WHCA is joining a strong slate of co-sponsors, including Weidner, the WA Multi-Family Housing Association, and the Commercial Real Estate Association (NAIOPWA).
If you live or host in the 48th LD — or anywhere on the Eastside — your presence at this event matters. Even a brief in-person introduction can help shape how a returning lawmaker thinks about our industry heading into the 2027 session.
