2/3 Mayor Wilson entered the Seattle race one year ago today. "This is Your City" has been our rallying call ever since. We even named ourselves after it! To celebrate our launch and 1-year anniversary of Katie's big run, we asked if she could swing by and talk about what "Your City" means to her.

1/3 The Wilson for Seattle campaign account is now officially Your City. Your City is a new progressive group created by the same Wilson campaign volunteers who donated their time, labor, and love to send Katie Wilson to City Hall.

City says new ordinances could shave 5 to 12 months off Seattle housing timelines Seattle Mayor Katie Wilson signed two ordinances today aimed at speeding up the production of housing and emergency shelter by removing regulatory barriers and

Yesterday I signed two ordinances sponsored by CM Lin that eliminate out of date regulatory barriers and speed the permitting process. This will accelerate development timelines by as much as five to twelve months, helping us move more quickly to build the housing and shelter we need.

Take care of yourselves tonight 🪄✨💖

Another ‘millionaires tax’ finds Seattle is far richer than anyone knew Seattle Mayor Katie Wilson last week described the city as “filthy rich.” Impolitic as that may be, returns from a new tax on high pay packages show she’s not wrong.

"The city’s new social housing tax, levied on lofty pay packages to pay for public housing, was due Jan. 31. The startling news was that it blew the projections out of the water."👏
