Seattle is home to one of the nation’s largest annual MLK Day events, and I was honored to be there with my daughter this year. The national political climate is tough, but here in our city, the sense of warmth and community were strong. (1/2)

Transit riders have been forced to sit through traffic on Seattle’s slowest and least reliable bus for decades. Finally we have a mayor willing to prioritize mobility and the climate to improve our transit system and give Seattleites the freedom of mobility they deserve. Roll out the red carpet!

Excited to announce 2 executive orders at my transition team meeting. My Shelter and Housing Accelerator order will speed efforts to rapidly bring people inside.

Something very different about how @wilsonforseattle.bsky.social shows up as @mayorofseattle.bsky.social: she doesn’t just do press events and then leave. She sticks around and listens. Her she is (left) listening to Shemona report out from out Transportation and Environment transition committee

We are beyond honored to have joined Mayor Wilson this morning to announce an executive order for bus lanes on Denny Way. We can't wait to finally Fix the L8 and see what she has in store for the next 4 years of Seattle's transit

I joined today’s ICE Out vigil to grieve for Renee Nicole Good & the many others who have lost their lives to ICE. To mourn. And to organize too.

To everyone who makes Seattle home: this is your city, and you belong here. You deserve to be safe here. And together, we’ll fight to make it so.
