”CM Mosqueda & @CMJorgeLBaron, just-sworn-in, but who are from our communities & accountable to our orgs, were pivotal in securing that initial funding from King Co. & worked w/ us & with #WALEG to make sure that $ was secured.” southseattleemerald.com/2024/04/19/adv…
We know that when #minwage workers earn more they spend it in their local economies! Today we voted to #RaiseTheWage for unincorporated areas of King County - thanks to all the workers, small biz and community leaders for testifying & turning out.
NEW: Just a few months away from the Sound Transit board making a final decision on a West Seattle light rail alignment, @CMTMosqueda is asking for the agency to take another look at the potential options on the table for the North Delridge area. theurbanist.org/2024/04/12/mos…
#AprilPoolsDay at the #WhiteCenter #Evergreen Aquatic Center on Sat! After the 40-year KC levy ended it had no city to take over. Thanks to the volunteer crew for bringing this pool back to life & #savinglives @IAFF27 @SeattleFire @KingCountyFire2 @JoeMcDermottWA @HighlineSchools
We capped the #D8day off with a ride back from @VashonMaury on @wsferries and Cpt Charlie was kind enough to show us what it looks like from his point of view when piloting the boat.
The main event of our trip was the special LSLU meeting chaired by @CMSarahPerry to present the Comprehensive Plan and get feedback/input from residents. We had great turnout at the Vashon Center for the Arts and I’m thrilled so many council members made the trip to join in D8.
It wouldn’t be a trip to @VashonMaury without a visit to vashonzamorana.com. This time we got to hear from our friends from vashonlandtrust.org about their efforts to steward the forests and open spaces of the island.
Mukai Farm and Garden mukaifarmandgarden.org is an important part of our history and I’m impressed with what The Friends of Mukai have planned for its future. Every fall they host the Japan Festival featuring haiku from around the world.
Despite the perception that @VashonMaury is a wealthy place, nearly 15% of the residents rely on vashonfoodbank.org because they struggle with #foodinsecurity. I’m looking forward to partnering with them in their efforts to expand their footprint and services on the island.
The lack of #affordable #housing on @VashonMaury is a major concern for all. I spent time with Terry Sullivan & Diane Emerson from the Vashon Community Council to talk about what changes are needed in the Comprehensive Plan to boost the housing stock on island.
We were surprised by our friend Beth from Islanders for Ferry Action @VashonChamber a handmade map of the island in appreciation for our efforts advocating for increased Water Taxi Service as we keep working for long term ferry service solutions.
Our first meeting was with @VashonEOC to learn more about their work helping the Island be ready to respond to any emergencies or disasters. They were crucial in responding to the pandemic and helping the Island have some of the lowest transmission rates in the County.
Our whole team got set up at Cafe Luna to get ready for a full day of meeting with folks on @VashonMaury
Starting this #D8day on @VashonMaury with a great ferry ride onto the island. Thanks @wsdot & @wsferries!
We will never end homelessness if we throw people in jail for just trying to survive. We're submitting this brief to tell SCOTUS there's another way and we’re going to continue that by joining @homeless_law in DC on April 22 during oral arguments. 🪧 johnsonvgrantspass.com/rally-in-d-c
SCOTUS case #JohnsonvGrantsPass could give local governments power to make it a crime for people to live outside and unsheltered, even when adequate shelter is unavailable. But LP members across the country know that's not effective. nytimes.com/2024/01/12/us/…
The solution to homelessness is a stable home – not jail. 150+ local elected officials signed onto this brief reminding SCOTUS that #HousingFirst is the most humane & effective way to address homelessness. 🧵 📝: localprog.org/GrantsPassBrief #JohnsonvGrantsPass #HousingNotHandcuffs
Proud to join elected leaders across the country in this @LocalProgress amicus brief in Grants Pass V Johnson. 156 local elected leaders signed on to tell #SCOTUS that what local governments need is more #housing and resources that meet people’s needs, not criminalize to them.

🚨BREAKING: I just voted to bring back more than $18.2 MILLION to Washington’s 7th congressional district! This funding will go toward building more affordable housing, addressing food insecurity, and making the Seattle area a better place to live for everyone.
NEWS: The House passed a government funding package that includes over $17 million for projects across #WA09. I’ll keep working to get all of the government funding bills signed into law to keep our government open and make important investments in communities across the country.
8. Most of all, it matters when we lead with heart and allow everyone the respect and dignity we want for ourselves. The Muslim community showed up in spades for all of our humanity. And I am deeply grateful for their leadership.
7. I am so grateful to Mubarak, MAPS & WA Muslim community; Sarah Perry who made the call; Councilmembers @jorgebaron & @CMTMosqueda who welcomed asylum seekers in their language from the dias. It matters who is in office; this is our community & we can bring compassion & hope.
6. When I called Mubarak to thank him last night, he said, "How could we not respond? I have children. I would never want children to not have a place to sleep. It doesn't matter what religion or country we may have come from. I know displacement personally."
@Mubarakelamin 5. Because of the Muslim community, asylum seekers from Venezuela have a place to sleep. Despite deep pain that the Muslim community was feeling, there was an immediate response to the pain of these asylum seekers, a deeply generous response to the humanity of all people. ❤️
4. @Mubarakelamin called Muslim Association of Puget Sound & explained situation and MAPS immediately stepped up with a check for $60,000 to house 61 asylum seeker families from Venezuela & other countries for two weeks until County money is available.
3. Mubarak immediately jumped into action. He is former board member of @weareoneamerica when I was ED, immigrant from Sudan who understands displacement (read more about Sudan & his own story here (seattletimes.com/seattle-news/w…), & Muslim leader in pain w/what is happening in Gaza.
2. After everyone had spoken but asylum seekers were not leaving b/c they had nowhere to sleep that night, council members began calling around to help fill the 2-week gap before county money could get disbursed. Perry called Muslim leader Mubarak El-Amin as one of her calls.
🧵1. What happened yesterday at @KCCouncil when asylum seekers showed up to testify about how they would be w/o a place to sleep in one of the richest areas in the country was extraordinary. Councilmembers Perry, Mosqueda, Baron, Zahilay welcomed them & ensured they cld speak.
Muslim Association of Puget Sound is paying for 61 rooms for 250 asylum seekers, including 42 kids, for two weeks at the Kent hotel. With Ramadan starting soon, King County Councilmember Sarah Perry says the Muslim Association wanted to step up and help.
This AM, I stood w/ @kcexec, @CMGirmayZahilay, & @CMTMosqueda to announce 5 new priorities for fighting fentanyl. Fentanyl kills 3 people a day here in KC. It will take a collaborative, whole-of-gov approach to reverse this surge in overdose deaths and protect future generations.
