We won last night’s @TheStranger debate with 57% of the audience’s vote — amazing!
I had a great time talking #ClimateAction, #COVIDrelief, & progressive taxation in my Gimli-inspired costume. Not pictured: the axe I use to chopp down barriers to housing & healthcare for all 🪓
Youth homelessness is a major problem — especially for #LGBTQ youth, who are disproportionately impacted.
I’m working w/ @YouthCareSEA to build a Youth Opportunity Center Broadway/Pine: homes for 80 homeless youth with a built-in education & employment center. #HousingSavesLives – at Seattle, WA
Loving this D&D themed @TheStranger debate! Can you guess who I am? I’ll give you a hit: think lord of the rings, not vikings...🤔 #Vote #43rdDebate #waleg #lotr
Honored to have @OneAmericaVotes’s sole endorsement! I’m so proud of our work together — including the #DreamAct & free college tuition for DREAMers.
As COVID impacts immigrant communities, I’m working to invest in community childcare providers, expand stimulus for ALL, & more.
I’m rallying with @UAW4121 postdocs to demand that @UW give #healthcare to ALL postdocs. I passed the law to create 4121, and I’m so glad to see postdocs using their #UnionPower.
@UW, stop denying healthcare to your employees! – at University District, Seattle
Excited that @arnpunited’s nurse practitioners have endorsed our campaign!
They join unions representing 50,000+ frontline healthcare workers who support our campaign.
Together, we’ll fight for universal access to healthcare, no matter your income or zip code. #HealthcareForAll
Thanks @equalrightswa for a sole endorsement!
We passed marriage equality. We banned conversion therapy. And we banned #LGBTQ discrimination in employment, housing, & healthcare.
Folks still need help affording those services — and we must address rising anti-trans hate crimes.
This #LaborDay, I’m reflecting on the positive impact #unions have had on working families.
During #COVID, unions have fought for much-needed hazard pay & PPE.
To address #ClimateChange, we need unions to help create a just transition ➡️ future green economy. (1/4)
The average cost for an affordable unit of housing is $350,000. Pre-fab #cottages provide a fully equipped home (kitchen, bathroom, & bed) for $150,000 each.
