Beyond grateful to have the endorsement of the United Farm Workers and their President, Teresa Romero.

@ufw.bsky.social has spent decades fighting for the dignity and rights of farmworkers, and their support means everything to me. I will never stop working to earn it. ¡SÍ SE PUEDE! 💜💪🏽

I’m joining community & labor leaders to call for a state Millionaire’s Tax.

To protect health care, housing, childcare & education, we need fair revenue – not more burden on working families.

Strong public health requires a strong workforce.

From pandemic response to overdose prevention, progress happened because public health workers showed up. We must keep investing in them.

We stand united against attempts to divide us. It’s never been clearer that an attack on one of us is an attack on all of us. We are stronger together an we won’t back down. @councilmember-amr.bsky.social @senayet.bsky.social

Overdose deaths declined 32% in just two years because public health investments work.

We must continue expanding behavioral health care and supporting the workforce that delivers it to close persistent disparities.

Progress is possible if we stay committed. 💜✊🏽

Guest Rant: Teresa Mosqueda Says We Must Pass the Millionaire’s Tax Cities and counties are begging for more progressive revenue tools. And it just so happens there's this progressive revenue tool in the Leg right now....

📢New policy just dropped!📢 I was honored to unveil new legislation today that restricts the incursion of federal immigration enforcement agents on county-owned and controlled property, building upon the Welcoming County motion I sponsored this summer!

Gun violence is a public health crisis.

Firearm injuries ⬆️62% in King County (2019–2023). In 2024, we saw a 20%⬇️ – proof that prevention works.

But recent shootings, especially impacting young people, remind us: we must do more, and do it now – in partnership with Seattle and local communities.

Public health is justice work. During Black History Month, I’m reflecting on why this work matters – and why I’ll keep doing it. 💪🏽💜

I am honored to have sponsored a motion that calls upon US Congress to implement significant guardrails around DHS and immigration enforcement agents. Thank you to my co-sponsors - CMs Lewis, Barón, Dembowski, and @kccclaudia.bsky.social - and all my fellow CMs for unanimously passing this motion.

Packed house at Garfield High School for MLK Day – youth voices, music, and a community ready to act. From the gym to the streets, we marched for immigrant rights, workers’ rights, peace, and democracy in the spirit of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.. Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.

I don't think I could say anything better than what Councilmember Teresa Mosqueda has said here. I'm proud to have her represent us on King County Council. This is a global issues but I know it will be felt here in Burien, too.

From coast to coast we just elected local officials in our cities focused on affordability, housing, jobs, shared prosperity. That’s where our tax dollars should go.

No More Wars.

This must stop. Endless wars of aggression with US tax dollars on foreign and sovereign land. We say NO.

NO to a war on the people of Venezuela. NO to US imperialism. NO to more death and destruction at the hands of our government with our tax dollars.
