-I work hard for District 1.
I did bus service to Alki, Admiral,
and Highland Park, restoring police
community service officers, keeping the
Concord Elementary Learning Center open,
and more hours for Coleman Pool.
No issue is too big or too small.
I've passed laws against exhaust noise
at Alki and legislation to fix
derelict buildings in Delridge
and South Park.
I've worked with Sound Transit
so Light Rail doesn't tear apart the Junction.
I've increased opportunity,
better laws for renters and workers,
and a green jobs career pathway
so everyone has a place to live and work.
I've gone to the mat
for small business all over the city,
from Luna Park and Fauntleroy,
to the University District
and the Central District.
I insist on accountability.
When city hall wanted $1.4 million
to bail out the Pronto! bike company,
I said no.
Now downtown's demanding
a First Avenue street car.
It's $143 million over budget.
I say, let's invest that money in
real transportation infrastructure.
I'm requiring new oversight
on big construction projects.
Government can't do everything.
We must do the important things
and do them well.
On addressing our homelessness crisis,
I led passage of a $29 million bond
to boost affordable housing built in 2018.
We're requiring developers
for the first time to pay for
affordable housing that's truly affordable.
I've helped families and seniors
pay their bills, stay in their homes,
and prevent homelessness
before it starts.
We must have the political will to do more.
I'm endorsed by MLK Labor,
the King County 34th
and 11th District Democrats,
Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal,
King County council member Joe McDermott,
state senator Joe Nguyen,
and Seattle council member
Lorena González.
I've lived in District 1 for 19 years.
My grandchildren attend
Sanislo Elementary and Chief Sealth High.
I hope I've earned your vote.
