Great turnout today at our CID Senior Voting & Vaccination Event. Many thanks to our amazing partners @kcelections , ID/Chinatown Community Center, @OCASeattle , TEA, and ICHS; and our generous sponsors EVA, @ACRSNews, and CISC ❤️❤️❤️
Thanks also to our many volunteers!
The @37Dems have passed a resolution yesterday calling for a CID station on 4th.
“Be it resolved the 37th LD [Dems] call upon the Sound Transit Board to keep its voter approved promise to locate new stations at 4th Avenue at Union Station and Midtown.”

THE most effect and best solution for the ENTIRE region is the 4th Ave alternative, but of course when it comes to the the CID, it’s “too expensive”. Where are our reparations??
#chinatownsmatter#savechinatown
.@SoundTransit is bypassing the community, voters, and their own process in order to put their thumb on the scale for CID N/S.
By the time the public gets more information the engineering money will be spent and it will be framed as *too late to fix.*

I had a lovely time at the annual HSD mixer ☺️ The venue was beautiful and the charcuterie table- AMAZING 😍
It’s always nice to catch up with DON Director Jenifer Chao and @KccClaudia ; two of our better civic leaders 👍👍

The attack in Seattle’s Chinatown IS a hate crime. It was not random. He targeted the 8 window display highlighting local hero Donnie Chin’s activism.

Yes, it’s wonderful that @MayorofSeattle is helping do repair work immediately. But what happens when it’s a small business with no ties or connections to the mayor’s office? Who do they turn to when SPD refuses to respond?

These community members are telling us something we really need to hear - I will continue working with colleagues on the ST board to get answers to the questions about how we can best serve the CID with light rail.
This is what transfers from the Eastside heading South to the Rainier Valley or Airport would look like with a transfer on 4. What they should look like.
1:03 vs the absurd 8:21 it would take to transfer at "South of CID" station.

We got together with TEA and tried out a common transfer if CID N/S is chosen by the @SoundTransit board at the insistence of @kcexec and @MayorofSeattle
Big surprise: It's really bad - 8:21 without getting to the platform or waiting for the train.

Great explainer video about pending ST3 decisions.
Note: There is reason to think deleting CID and Midtown stations will not only be bad for transit riders - but won’t even save any money.

This endless churn isn’t free.
Looks like a new EIS could cost >$100M in direct costs in addition to the indirect costs and years of delay.
It a politician tries to tell you deleting CID and Midtown station is about money, they are lying.
@lm_luddite No. She does not support the CID. @votetanyawoo is out here everyday fighting for our community; patrolling at night, attending endless meetings w/local government to beg for support. TM shows up for photo ops.
@lm_luddite @rianwatt @TammyMoralesSEA There are other colors in D2 as well. I don’t presume to speak for others.
I am pointing out that she most definitely kept her promise from the beginning.
