Per CAIR-WA, husband of former congressional candidate Melissa Chaudhry is detained by ICE. Muhammad Zahid Chaudhry, a Pakistan-born US Army vet, was taken during a citizenship interview. Unthinkable. We call on our elected officials to help! @adamsmith.house.gov @repbpramilajayapal.bsky.social

Jamie for Seattle District 2 @jamieforseattle.bsky.social · Jul 26

Jamie Fackler's campaign has a lot in common with Shrek. It's about standing up for people in Seattle who have been pushed out and pushed aside because of wealthy interests. It's about saying I #GiveAFack about where I live and those who live around me.

Social housing provides an opportunity to transform the housing model in our community. I not only voted for Prop 1A, but will continue to fight for the full implementation of social housing in Seattle. We have to expand housing ownership options for people of all income levels.

Maybe someday we will get over our Seattle Freeze and learn to have fun with our politicians.

But first we will need to find a fun politician!

The Medicaid cuts in Trump's Tax Scam would be disastrous for millions of Americans, even if they aren't on Medicaid.

Stranger appears to claim that D2 candidate Eddie Lin (who they endorsed) voted for 1A to fund social housing payroll tax. However, Lin has admitted that he actually voted for 1B, the Chamber-backed alt that would have undermined social housing.
