The pitfalls of falling in love with big business. A happy-hour mayoral poll. A second session for the state legislature? Funding education. The June Civic Cocktail infused these hot topics and more with cool drinks at a packed Palace Ballroom, where host Brian Callanan moderated a lively discussion. Panelists included Senate Majority Leader Rodney Tom (D-Medina); Howard Behar, former president of Starbucks International and current Vice Chair of the Washington Business Alliance; Michele Matassa Flores, Puget Sound Business Journal managing editor; and Knute Berger, Crosscut columnist.
