Hearing from multiple sources that King County's Executive Climate Office (ECO) is set to be fully eliminated under the new administration.
Continuing to hear more and more about a significant staff shakeup at King County, ahead of Executive-elect Girmay Zahilay's swearing in next week.

Democrats have been fighting for months to address America's healthcare crisis
For the millions who will lose coverage
For people with cancer who won't get the care they need
For working families who can't afford to pay $25K more a year for healthcare
