Feeding the people of Gaza is a responsibility we take very seriously. That’s why @WCKitchen we are cooking and distributing hundreds of thousands of hot meals every single day across Gaza. Palestinians feeding Palestinians.
We have returned to the feeding levels we delivered before the ceasefire, after increasing to unprecedented levels in response to the dire conditions.
I want to be very clear: these are incredibly difficult decisions for us. They are based on financial necessity, not on the levels of hunger. @WCKitchen is just one NGO, funded mostly by small donors in the US. We cannot carry this responsibility on our own. The world needs to step up for the people of Gaza. They have suffered too much. Empty words do not fill empty stomachs.
Today, I laid out my anti-corruption plan right outside of Susan Collins’s office:

📊Ban Congressional Stock Trading
🪖Root Out Pentagon Corruption & Waste
Absolutely:
— Focus on fabric weight and weave, as lightweight fabrics made with a porous weave will breathe better
— Consider linen shirts, as these will wick moisture from your skin and keep you dry
— Advocate for affordable housing in walkable neighborhoods, as this will reduce our dependence on cars and thus oil
— Ask local leaders to plant trees along sidewalks, as these will lower temps
— Vote for politicians who support green policies
— Pay attention to shape and drape, as your silhouette will have to do more when you're not layering
— Consider accessories, such as jewelry

If Iran and Egypt don't want to see Pride flags at their match in Seattle, that's just too damn bad.
LGBTQ folks were intentionally erased in Qatar in 2022 due to "respect for local culture."
Seattle supports LGBTQ people. Respect the local culture.
