Earlier this evening, @MayorofSeattle, @ExecZahilay, & other local leaders united to support an amendment to keep Sound Transit's Graham Street Station on track. The event highlighted community advocacy & the need for equitable transit in Rainier Valley: https://t.co/gNGYKoXl4H

Proud to have exceptional partners for the World Cup — Seattle, King County, Sound Transit, and many more, who I joined in Seattle yesterday to discuss our transportation preparations.

Many individuals are working very hard to make sure our great transportation meets the moment.

Happy Mother’s Day to all of the wonderful mothers of King County and across the world! We appreciate you and hope you feel special today and all days.

You may have seen headlines over the past year about audits and fiscal management challenges at King County.

My expectations for your regional government are clear: we must and will become the best run local government in the nation.

Let’s fix roads and bridges damaged by the December floods.

Our proposal would temporarily redirect existing Real Estate Excise Tax dollars to repair and restore safe access for our communities.

I’m looking forward to working with the County Council to move this forward.

I’m devastated to hear about the shooting deaths of 2 teens in Rainier Beach. Our Sheriff’s Office, Gun Violence Office, and Executive Office have been assisting local authorities and community. My heart goes out to the families dealing with this trauma.

Today we honored Shawn Yim, a King County Metro operator whose life was taken one year ago while serving our community. We hold Shawn’s family, loved ones, and his coworkers in our hearts, and we recognize the deep loss and trauma his passing brought to the Metro community.
