The right to a healthy life and accessible healthcare should not depend on your financial status.

Rep. DeLauro: Access to quality, affordable health care is one of the most basic necessities for modern society. You can't force people to choose between paying for their kids' medication or putting food on the table or paying their rent. @delauro.house.gov

Thank you for jumping on this!

I was just as shocked with the news about the route 2 bus only lane as you. We are working on it. We need to prioritize pedestrian safety and not go backwards on our transit investments.

Save our Union St bus lane!

The Seattle Department of Transportation, with little feedback and no broad outreach is planning to remove the short bus lane on Union St this weekend. We think that's a terrible idea! Join the Tran...

Imagine a system where your health is the priority, not your insurance company's profit.

Universal healthcare guarantees comprehensive, lifelong healthcare for all.

This means no more medical debt and no more losing coverage with your job.

Healthcare is a human right, not a luxury.

We can win the fight for universal health care.
Medicare for All will guarantee health care for every American – no matter what.

A graphic with a blue background and two hands holding "Medicare for All" signs. The text in white and yellow font says, "We need a simple, universal health care system that works for everyone. We need Medicare for All."

Thanks to Working Families Party for organizing yesterday’s canvas in Columbia City. Our opponent has wealthy donors — we have each other. Ready to win an affordable Seattle together? Sign up to canvas at the link in our bio! #thisisyourcity @workingfamilies.org

A group of twenty four people stand behind a large orange and purple banner that reads “WA WFP.” The crowd holds signs supporting Katie Wilson and Eddie Lin.

⚠️This is the Jimmy Kimmel monologue that got his show pulled.

Not hate. Not celebration of death.

Just the truth: Republicans rushed to blame the left before any facts about the shooter or motive were known.

Keep sharing it. Spread the truth.

😡! Here's Bradley mugging for the camera on what was then the brand new Broadway protected bike lanes. He was one the early family bikers in Seattle, and part of a wave of family biking advocacy in the 2010s that ushered in a new era of biking in Seattle refocused on people of all ages and abilities
