Washington state's new millionaires tax could already be facing repeal, if voters approve Initiative 645 on the November ballot. Former Congresswoman Jaime Herrera Beutler, speaking for the "Yes on 645" campaign, argues that this income tax will soon be levied on all Washingtonians. Economic Opportunity Institute Executive Director Rian Watt says repeal of the tax would threaten funding for schools, health care, and other critical public services.

ICYMI: Community Not Cameras passed our 6-month mark a couple of weeks ago, and look at the earned-media that has already published us!

Originally launched in late March as a grassroots education campaign and coalition of individuals in collaboration with local organizations, we have already accomplished so much at shaping the narrative, speaking truth to power, and building up communal knowledge about Seattle’s expansion of the surveillance state. And in the process, we strive to live our values, investing in relationships with each other and lifting up the community voices that continue to be marginalized by policymakers.

If you haven’t already, now’s your chance to join our signal chat (via linktree in bio) to get plugged in and collaborate as we continue the fight to dismantle the local police surveillance apparatus!

This November, Seattle voters will decide whether Proposition 1 should renew and double the sales-tax rate funding transit.

Thank you to @seattlechannel and the host @callanan13 for the opportunity to share my vision for #SeattleD5 and talk about how I will lead differently to tackle the challenges facing #Seattle.

For me, leadership starts with showing up, listening, and understanding the communities you represent. After 30 years living and working in Seattle, I know our neighborhoods, I know the challenges we face, and I know how much people want the basics to work.

Safe streets. Vibrant parks, clean neighborhoods. First responders who are there when we need them. And a City Hall that responds and delivers measurable results.

Seattle can be safe, affordable, and full of opportunity. I’m ready to show up, listen, take action, and deliver for District 5.

Thank you, Seattle Channel, for giving voters the opportunity to hear directly from the candidates and decide what kind of leadership they want representing them.

Happiest of birthdays to @westseattlechamber Board Member Brian, from West Seattle’s only 5K obstacle course, @loopthelupe! 🎉

Brian shows up for this community, our businesses, and for me at the Chamber time and time again. The motivation to make things the best they can be inspires openness and creativity in a safe place, and I honor that and am grateful for it. It takes a village to get through this work. Much respect, and even more appreciation for you, Brian! 🙌
