Progressive funding. Real safety. Dignity for all.
Let’s shape Seattle’s future by taxing billionaire corporations, fixing our social safety nets, growing our affordable housing, increasing density, creating green jobs, making transit faster and free, and protecting all our neighbors.

Why I’m Running
I’m a disabled advocate, democratic socialist, educator, and researcher. I’ve worked with vulnerable communities for nearly two decades. I’m running for Seattle City Council because I believe that fixing our systems to work for the people who need them the most helps all of us.
On city council I’ll tax wealthy corporations and use the revenue to:
- Make Our Communities More Resilient by growing our safety systems and not letting corporations play games with our access to food or pharmacy services.
- Protect Our Neighbors with appropriate crisis response and by resisting ICE.
- Shape Our Future with green jobs – fast, reliable, and free public transportation solutions – and by carefully increasing density while protecting the character of our neighborhoods and public spaces.
It is crucial that Seattle take advantage of this unique opportunity to shape our future together by creating lasting progressive change.

ICE Out
Seattle is a better place because people of all backgrounds and abilities live here: immigrants and refugees; LGBTQ+ people; and disabled folks all add to the culture of our city. Now faced with the federal government’s illegal and amoral overreach, our only option is to work collectively to protect our most vulnerable neighbors. Seattle is a welcoming city – those aren’t just words – it’s a foundational commitment to ourselves and our city’s future.
I’ll work with community groups and organizations to limit our city’s cooperation with ICE by narrowing when and how the city and SPD can engage with ICE. I’ll also call for an end to participation in corporate surveillance: stopping the use of automatic license plate readers; ending CCTV surveillance; and terminating the contract with Axon for the Real Time Crime Center. These tools are expensive, have few public safety benefits, but put many of us at risk.
I’ll also push to divest city resources from companies that work with ICE. And as a city we must push to remove SPD from the Joint Terrorism Task Force and the Washington State Fusion Center.
