Lake City Lifeline

Volunteer-run aid organization supporting our unsheltered neighbors in Lake City with meals, harm reduction supplies and basic needs items.

[Lake City Lifeline @LC_Lifeline]

We are former volunteers of FromTheHeartPNW. Going forward, we will be continuing to aid our unhoused neighbors in Lake City under the name Lake City Lifeline.

After blocking tent city 4's move to a piece of public lane with two weeks notice Cathy Moore is now calling for weekly sweeps in Lake City. Where does she want people to go? The answer is frankly clear: prison or death.

[Housing 4 All is Hot @ahouse4all]

Landlords didn't invest $200 million dollars to defeat this proposition for nothing - they invested heavily in protecting their profits and won. At the cost of our families - many more evictions and rising homelessness as they keep raising rents with no limits.

The bluest of blue states (California) literally voting to keep slavery is actually more representative of where this country is than a second Trump term.

Bad weather is really truly here and we could use your help getting more warm weather gear to our unsheltered neighbors. We've got a wishlist running for some basic warming gear:

No matter who wins tonight, no one is coming to save you.

Both parties represent the interests of competing elites. While some of those interests may coincide with yours, real change is driven by organized movements from below.

[Lake City Lifeline @LC_Lifeline]

Slow or fast we are burning. People are dying. Take action. Move. Address what's happening and be ready for what comes next. We will be there alongside our neighbors, carrying out our program, but there's more to be done

[Lake City Lifeline @LC_Lifeline]

Once again we have to ask ourselves which party will militarized the border, slash public benefits, pour funding into the cops, and leave our neighbors to die in the street. Vote or not: do more. Show up in your community, build networks of support.

[Lake City Lifeline @LC_Lifeline]

Meanwhile our city council is arguing over whether to spend TWO MILLION DOLLARS to remove brand new traffic calming measures? This is your "fiscally responsible" council?

This is just vigilantism, which is also not that far removed from what cops already are!

nothing ominous about an off-brand Blackwater “sweeping” Tacoma

The city govt is beholden to capital which is controlled by business, landlords and property owners. It will, without fail, create a budget and write policy that reflects its complete control.

[Lake City Lifeline @LC_Lifeline]

It's budget season! The time of year when city council cuts services, undermines popular will, carves out concessions for the bosses, and heaps money the cops

[Lake City Lifeline @LC_Lifeline]

Tomorrow! Come thru the bitter lake community center at 10am, get some free care and vaccination for your babies!

[Lake City Lifeline @LC_Lifeline]

We spend tens of thousands to elect progressive candidates, maybe even get some legislation passed. Then a few years down the line when reaction finds it's footing all that gets thrown out easily. The best we get is a temporary stand still

[Lake City Lifeline @LC_Lifeline]

There's pressure to be wielded when a cm goes back on progressive campaign promises but this council is full of ghouls who say it with their chests.

[Lake City Lifeline @LC_Lifeline]

Council members have their voting base on lock, "moderate", property owning, high income, big and small businesses. They don't give a shit about what we have to say, that's why they have those shit eating smirks on their faces when we read them the names of the dead

[Lake City Lifeline @LC_Lifeline]

City council doing horrifyingly regressive, maybe illegal things and stifling public dissent? Must be Tuesday in Seattle

[Jesse @Jessecooksfood]

This policy would make sure that a bunch of business owners and residents suddenly have shit happening on their corners where it wasn’t happening before. Probably without actually satisfying the business owners and residents in the places where it used to be happening the most.

[Lake City Lifeline @LC_Lifeline]

We're already stretched thin in our ability to serve our existing community of hungry neighbors so once again if you can contribute please do so

[Lake City Lifeline @LC_Lifeline]

Once again Cathy Moore and her collaborators on the Council are tryimg to kill their constituents. Every soda/soap zone is a hub of care from mutual aid, clinics, food banks, housing services, and community. These are peoples homes.

[Hannah Krieg @hannahkrieg]

NOW: The Public Safety Committee will discuss and possibly vote on SODA and SOAP laws. Commenters say the bills won't reduce crime, just move it into different areas, encourage to racist, sexist, and transphobic harrasment and perpetuate the cycle of poverty.

[Lake City Lifeline @LC_Lifeline]

From our perspective we expect lake city to become even more busy and existing services even more strained as cops pick people up in soap/soda zones and drop them in other towns and neighborhoods where they don't know anyone or what services exist
