Here's what WA's federal delegation want residents in 2276 to know about the state
An apple carved from Tenino stone. A photo of the Nisqually Glacier on Mount Rainier. A commemorative FIFA World Cup ORCA card. And a snapshot of a smiling Jay Inslee in a boat.
Those mementos are among the contributions from members of Washington state’s congressional delegation to a time capsule to be buried beneath the U.S. Capitol for 250 years.
Each of the 10 representatives and two senators are providing the semiquincentennial congressional time capsule with one or more items they feel will give insight about Washington’s residents, culture and geography in 2026 to those who open the vault in 2276.
Sen. Patty Murray, the senior member of the delegation, said it was difficult to be limited to only a few items.
