-Hi. My name is Ami Nguyen, and I'm running for
Seattle City Council, District 3,
to ensure that we work together to create a Seattle
for all of us.
I've dedicated my career to public service
to improve the lives of others.
As a public defender,
I work closely with people who are homeless,
struggling with mental health, and fighting addiction.
As a former tenant's rights attorney,
I fought against slumlords and illegal evictions,
allowing families to remain housed
and live in better conditions.
As a daughter of Vietnamese refugees who relied
on subsidized housing
and public education as a child,
I understand the need for compassion
and accountability in our city council.
No other candidates have worked on the
ground like I have to understand
the root causes of homelessness.
My unique experiences provide me the skills
to work with community and council members
to address our homelessness crisis.
I'm advocating for barrier-free treatment
so that our family, friends, and neighbors
can receive the help they need to address
their mental health and addiction struggles.
As an expecting mother,
I want to ensure that our streets are
safe for walking, biking, busing, and driving.
This requires us to work together with community members
and SDOT to implement a comprehensive plan
rather than creating division.
By working together,
we can save lives from traffic accidents
and improve health by reducing carbon emission.
I know that we can work together to ensure
that seniors can age in place
and residents can afford to stay in Seattle.
It's our time to have a city council member
who will listen and fight for our concerns.
It's our time to have a city council member
who shares our values and visions.
It's our city, and we should have
a say in the future of Seattle.
I've been endorsed by the
National Women's Political Caucus
and the King County Young Dems.
Together, we can make Seattle a place for all of us.
It's our turn, our time, our city.
My name is Ami Nguyen,
and I'm running for Seattle City Council, District 3.
