We are doing some great things in Shoreline. More housing, more community, more parks.
A reminder, this administration is very unpopular with the American people.
We need new leaders who will put the people first, not one’s self.

Very sad news 💔 Joel was a stalwart in the Seattle news scene and supported many up-and-coming journalists. He will be missed

I have alerted city staff about the overgrown vegetation.
Shoreline residents and visitors can use SeeClickFix to report overgrown vegetation, potholes, graffiti, or other issues.
PRO TIP if you're filing taxes by mail:

He is absolutely correct that the way the civil rights movement is traditionally taught and understood is limited to actions occurring in the 1950s and 60s, while Americans have been pushing for civil and human rights since before Independence and into the present.
Democrats are winning all over the country.

Trump's posts on Iran have gotten progressively worse over the last week (and that's really saying something), from "see you in hell" to "a whole civilization will die tonight." Where are Republicans in Congress? The simplest approx is that they are staying silent because they support this
This is unacceptable. Political violence has no place in American society.
Too many elected officials regularly face harassment and intimidation on and off the dais.
A single long fixed term for Supreme Court justices, mandatory retirement age (but not term limits) for Congress, term limits plus a mandatory retirement age (to complement the minimum age) for president.
Plus a ban on insurrectionists in any of these offices.
Congress appropriations funds in our system of government.

Please support my campaign for King County Assessor today.

These are devastating cuts to communities across the country. We need our federal government to invest more in protecting our children and other vulnerable users and helping people obtain affordable housing.
This administration is very unpopular.

A reminder, this administration is very, very unpopular with the American public.
We need to work together this year to support and fundraise for candidates who step up to defend our democracy and our nation’s values.

We will continue to come together to speak out against injustice and to build stronger communities.
