As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.

If only the 2023 Seattle City Council close election results went the other way. Housing policy in this comp plan would be less status quo & more equitable with Ron Davis and Andrew Lewis instead of Rivera and Kettle.
Davis lost by 235 votes.
Lewis lost by 439 votes.

"We know we need more housing," Rivera says, but but but she continues to claim the city's Office of Planning and Community Development (which she's consistently blamed for all of the inevitable house owner opposition) didn't "take the time to hear concerns of constituents."
