Let’s imagine what the Seattle City Council could be doing right now…if they hadn’t sworn off progressive innovation. Op-ed from Katie Wilson: theurbanist.org/2024/04/18/pol…
Fantastic post by @WilsonKatieB, taking on that ridiculous claim from Danny Westneat and retweeted by Sara Nelson about policy experimentation being over. Can’t wait to see where her columns go!

This from @WilsonKatieB is so spot on. The conservative majority on the City Council is not really interested in solving the city's problems. What they actually care about is blocking progressive solutions. *That* is what they consider success.

I’m excited to resume a couple of favorite pastimes: providing a counterpoint to The Seattle Times’ op-ed page (in this case a Danny Westneat column) and writing about big policy ideas. @UrbanistOrg theurbanist.org/2024/04/18/pol…

This sensational story about a "homeless landlord" and his "nightmare tenant" has been making the rounds of talk radio & TV news. Then it found its way into The Seattle Times. I did some digging and it turns out the truth is a lot more complicated: publicola.com/2023/12/22/nig…
TRU's @WilsonKatieB correcting the record:
Opponents claim adding new regulations to the housing market will drive "mom-and-pop" landlords out and lead to higher rent and reduced access. @WilsonKatieB of @PubliColaNews refutes this claim, citing work by ABF Research Prof. Anna Reosti and coauthors. publicola.com/2023/12/04/no-…
This is a great read. Exempting small landlords from renter rules is like exempting a restaurant from the health code for having one stove.

I still think a lot about @WilsonKatieB's Crosscut piece--linked in the above article--about how even if this is true...should public policy care? What are we prioritizing: landlord wealth, or renter stability? As a renter, I say the latter. crosscut.com/opinion/2021/0…
I wrote about some new research on renter protection laws and “mom-and-pop” landlords. Short version: never believe the landlord lobby!

In the same week as Labor Day, I was proud to stand with colleagues, workers, unions, small business owners, and advocates to announce my proposal to raise the minimum wage in unincorporated King County to $18.99/hour. Workers should not struggle to barely survive in our region
