Our city is ready, the fans are ready, and I can't wait! FIFA World Cup is coming to Seattle, and we are so excited to be a part of the global celebration. With matches on Juneteenth and Pride, we get to show the world that in Seattle, everyone is welcome. What an incredible honor for our city!

I'm beyond thrilled to welcome people from across the globe to our city next year. It’ll be an opportunity for all of us to root for our favorite teams, fill the city with energy, and maybe even show off our skills! I can’t wait.

🧣 HOT OFF THE LOOM 🧵

World soccer in Seattle may be months away, but today's gloomy weather is perfect for the official scarf.

Things got so crazy we didn't even get final score up yet 🤣

TORRENT WIN!!

A blue graphic with the Wilson transition team logo at the top with a block of text that says: yesterday, I was appalled by the dehumanizing language of the president of the United States used to describe members of our nation's Somali community. today, I've learned that ice intends to deport Greggy "Kuta G"Sorio, who's been held for months at the Northwest detention center without proper medical Care, despite his precarious physical condition. we must not allow this repeated and intensifying cruelty to become normalized. I stand in solidarity with our immigrant communities who are under attack from the very government that should be protecting their human and civil rights. as mayor, I will do everything I can to stand with the targets of this needless aggression. I will work to make sure that every resident of our city feels safe, secure, and respected. this is your city

What exactly will our transition team do? I wanted to take a moment to talk to you about it. #thisisyourcity

It was a joy to join Rev. Dr. Robert L. Jeffrey, Sr of New Hope Missionary Baptist Church, the Low Income Housing Institute, and other community leaders to break ground at a new affordable housing project. Over 90 families in the Central District will be housed as a result of this multi-year project

Starbucks CEO Brian Niccol made $95 million last year. His workers are striking for the bare minimum. Glad to be on the right side of the picket line with them.

A graphic that says we are ready to build an affordable Seattle. I'd like to introduce my transition team. it brings people together from a wide range of backgrounds, perspectives, and expertise to help me deliver on the vision that guided my campaign. The team is organized into seven policy areas. each policy area consists of experience local leaders that will work with the mayor elect to build a diverse administration, and serve as liaison to the varied communities we will represent.

I’m excited to apply the community organizer approach to this process—and to City Hall!

This Army veteran and husband of a former Congressional candidate has been detained by ICE since August. If he's detained much longer, he could lose his eyesight. As time creeps by in the Northwest Detention Center, pressure builds in the muscles behind Muhammad Zahid Chaudhry’s eyes. The swelling tissue puts pressure on his optic nerve. For Zahid, as he’s call...

Over the last ten days, we’ve turned down most national (and international) media requests in order to focus on launching our transition process into government. Our attention is on this city—we were elected to get real results, and that will be our focus for the next four years.

Thanks for having me on, @krystalball.bsky.social!

One of my first initiatives as mayor will be to make sure that City Hall moves in a better direction, toward a more responsive city government that delivers services to people and explains what we're doing and why. #thisisyourcity
