Washington faces a very deep housing availability and affordability crisis. It has only worsened in the past several years. It's time for Washington to face this crisis head on. This year, there are...
amazon brought jobs. it was seattle city council’s responsibility to pace the way to build housing seattle is 45,000 homes short of matching their jobs per home ratio of 2010 what did bruce harrell do for 12 years on city council? jack shit. now he’s running for mayor
