🦴 Did you just get a shiver down your spine? It might be the news that Washington Filmworks incentive project "213 Bones" will make its UK premiere at Frightfest in London on August 23! We can't wait for this Spokane-filmed horror flick to hit the big screen.

I just learned that several community leaders were detained this morning by federal agents apparently for their roles in the June 11 demonstration at the ICE facility.

I’m outraged.

My city was one of hundreds expecting federal funds to help manage rising heat wave risk – then EPA terminated the grants The administration said the grants were β€˜no longer consistent with EPA funding priorities.’ Spokane, which has faced deadly heat waves in eastern Washington, shows who is at risk.

A heat wave in 2021 killed 19 people in Spokane, Washington. The city was awarded $19.9M by the EPA to prepare for future heat waves, but the grant was abruptly terminated.

Now Spokane and 350 other communities are left scrambling to adapt to #climatechange. theconversation.com/my-city-was-...

Addressing homelessness and affordable housing requires coordination of resources and mobilizing partnerships. We all have a role to play and we all need to work together to create lasting solutions so that everyone in our community can access the American dream.

@spokanecity.org needs more housing units at all levels, but especially affordable units. These proposals remove barriers that have stalled progress for too long and give us the tools to put shovels in the ground where they are most needed. my.spokanecity.org/news/release...
