HB 1323 is a bipartisan bill that would make protesting on Washington State highways a class C Felony. Because mass protest will be a crucial tool of resistance to both federal fascism and local austerity measures, we must make sure it doesn’t pass. app.leg.wa.gov/billsummary?Bi…

Do you think jailing people is free? King County courts, jails, and prosecutors cumulatively cost $634m annually to lock up fewer than 2,000 ppl Plus, another $92m for Seattle courts + prosecutors Plus $465m for SPD Plus $285m for KCSO That's nearly $1.5 billion

We asked people who lived in homeless encampments that were cleared out in city “sweeps” to write about what object was the hardest for them to lose. “They took my baby pictures and my moms obituaries,” a 29-year-old in California wrote. propub.li/3VVlbGc

Idk why I'm shocked by this but I'm just finding out that Seattle is sweeping 20+ vehicles on Thanksgiving, when there are no services bc most ppl have the day off. Your hard earned tax dollars at work. The cruelty is the point.

Moore is completely gaslighting so many people's lived experience. Seattle conducted over 2,800 sweeps in 2023. Don't tell us that sweeps aren't happening!

Israeli forces shot him in broad daylight while wearing a press vest. You target journalists when you don’t want witnesses to your crimes.

Well, the city just gave SPD $170 million, so perhaps that is to account for the $200 million budget shortfall... along with the lack of progressive revenue.

You’ll be shocked to learn that the “miracle cure” for homelessness is housing and services.

There were 12 sweeps that we knew of over the last two weeks, and likely many more that were not posted. Each week we provide sweep support, material aid (tents, clothes, food, harm rdx, gas, propane etc). Pls send us 💸 so we can continue our work!

And then people complain about the waste on public streets and instead of blaming our purposely neglectful government they blame poor people who live on the street and don't have access to a bathroom.

Seattle's over reliance on levies as a means to solve our problems is reason # 623 why this city's gone to hell. Simultaneously displacing poor fams/small biz while letting corporations off the hook for their outsized impact on our infrastructure. The chamber can get fucked
