Organization welcomes broader reach across Washington while reaffirming its commitment to liberty, accountability, and constitutional principles.
Spokane, WA — June 17, 2026 — The East Washington Freedom Alliance today announced it is rebranding as the Empowering Washington Freedom Alliance (EWAFA). The name change reflects the organization’s growing commitment to serve citizens across the entire state while continuing its core mission of empowering We the People.
For too long, many Washingtonians have been underserved and unrepresented as government overreach and self-serving policies have taken priority over the needs of everyday citizens. EWAFA was created to change that reality.
“Our mission is to inspire, empower, educate, and equip citizens to recognize their strength and boldly participate in civic life,” said an EWAFA spokesperson. “We are guided by the founding principles of the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution, and we believe that real change happens when citizens stand together.”
This is our 1776 moment. Throughout American history, ordinary citizens have risen to defend and advance liberty. EWAFA exists to help Washingtonians do the same today — through civic education, community engagement, and holding leaders accountable.
Citizens who are ready to move beyond frustration and help reclaim the Republic our Founding Fathers envisioned are invited to join the movement.
EWAFA is a non-partisan, grassroots alliance of citizens committed to restoring liberty, self-governance, and constitutional principles across Washington State. Through education, connection, and accountability efforts, EWAFA equips citizens with the knowledge and tools needed to stand together and create meaningful change.

Empowering Washington Freedom Alliance grows its reach to help more citizens across the state reclaim their voice and hold government accountable.
Semi Bird is a proven man of the people. His life and work have always been about selfless service, not self-interest. His addition to the EWAFA board, brings the leadership, knowledge, and abilities needed to support the EWAFA mission and ensure meaningful impact.
"Our goal is simple,” said Chris McIntosh, EWAFA's Public Relations Director. “We want to help everyday citizens understand their power and give them the tools to use it. When people are informed and united, they can demand better from their leaders.”
The addition of Semi Bird to the board brings valuable experience and a strong commitment to public service. His involvement reflects EWAFA’s belief that real leadership comes from those who put the interests of the people first.
This moment represents more than a name change. It marks a renewed call for citizens to step forward and take ownership of their government. Throughout history, meaningful progress has come when ordinary people chose to stand together rather than remain on the sidelines.
If you are tired of the status quo and ready to reclaim the Republic our Founding Fathers envisioned, we invite you to join us.
