The @MLKLabor union federation just voted to kick out the Seattle Police Officers Guild!
This is the beginning of organized labor unshackling itself from an alliance with oppressors so that it can be free to stand in solidarity with all working people. #blacklivematter #spogout

Best way to spend Yom Kippur, supporting Starbucks workers fighting the wrongs of their bosses. They stood together for living wages, stood against their boss's complicity in genocide in Palestine, stood as David against Goliath the past 4 years. Contract now! @SBWorkersUnited

Stop calling all Democrats socialists. It’s offensive. To socialists.

Noisy Creek bought us, promised more resources, but refused an interim agreement to raise unit wages. Now they want to hire a new reporter for more than they pay current staff. If the company can't afford to pay workers a wage we can thrive on, we can't afford new reporters.

The withdrawal from Afghanistan was one of the best things that the Biden-Harris admin did. The Taliban took over because the US army went INTO Afghanistan, not because they pulled out.

You can't be "working around the clock for a ceasefire" while you are actively funding the fire you say you want to cease. #Debate2024

Trump evokes CHOP in Seattle, asking "when are they going to be prosecuted!?" CHOP was so well maintained, when it rained there was a person sweeping the rain into the gutter. One of my biggest regrets is not taking a picture of that. Prosecute what? #Debate2024

NEW: Cherry Street Coffee House owner complained to City Council that paying minimum wage may force him to close stores. Outraged, the workers shut down one of his stores anyway. Business may have power in City Hall, but workers still run the workplace.

You can't be in favor of cease-fire, but oppose cease-funding the very same fire.

Ahead of this week's Democratic National Convention, the people of Washington say NOT ANOTHER BOMB.
Kamala Harris, it's time for a permanent ceasefire and an arms embargo on Israel! Stop the Gaza genocide! 🇵🇸🌹

This is one of the most undemocratic moments I’ve seen in Seattle.
25K voters across the city signed a petition to send I-137 to the ballot this November. Today was the deadline. Instead, Council cut public comment short and voted 7-1 to remove I-137 on our agenda.

Last week, HUNDREDS of Starbucks workers representing 425 union stores participated in bargaining sessions aimed at achieving a foundational framework that is intended to be the foundation of each single-store contract.
The road has been a long one, but its finally happening!✊

The STARTING salary for cops was raised to $105k, w/ a department budget of over $370 million—the only city department without a hiring freeze.
The Seattle Public Library budget is $86.9 million.
The budgets are connected, & budgets reflect values.
