Join us this weekend! 🚌
My heart is with both the trans and UW student communities, and I hope all of Seattle will join me in showing up for our trans community with care and compassion during this time.
Seattle must serve as a refuge for our trans neighbors who are fleeing regions trying to erase their existence, which is why today’s news is so devastating and horrific.
I wish I could have been there with you all today, but couldn’t attend due to Open Public Meetings Act (OPMA) quorum rules.
But my commitment to Graham Street Station is unwavering; it would be immensely harmful not to proceed with this station, and I’ll continue to do what I can to get it built.
The Transportation Committee just voted 5-0 to put Shared Streets into the city code, and I couldn’t be happier to vote yes! This represents an amazing opportunity to make our streets safer by giving priority to people, not cars, and by allowing us to lower the speed limit to 10 MPH.
I authored this letter to fight for Seattle residents and their tax dollars. In addition to millions that would be directed away from our community, I'm concerned with the precedent this "cap" would set for Seattle. I'm grateful to my colleagues for signing on and hopeful for the path forward.
Trans people deserve safety, dignity, and prosperity.
Last night a 19-year-old trans woman was murdered off-campus at the UW, a life over far too soon. We do not yet know her name, but I know that she deserved better than this.

In a letter to King County Councilmembers, eight members of the Seattle City Council call a proposed Seattle-only cap on pass-through funding from a new countywide 0.1% sales tax "not acceptable nor equitable" and ask that it be fully dropped at Friday's planned vote.
