I'm Casey Sixkiller. I grew up in Seattle.
And I'm raising three young kids here.
I'm running for mayor
so every family has a future in Seattle.
This past year was one of the most challenging
in our city's history.
Despite great wealth and opportunity,
too many families are being left behind.
Our neighborhoods are struggling
with empty storefronts,
homelessness, and crime.
Instead of coming together
to meet these challenges,
we're being held back by divisions.
I've spent my career advancing practical,
progressive solutions
at every level of government.
I've formed partnerships to create
new housing and shelters,
expand access to parks,
advance equity by dismantling
institutional barriers,
and secured millions of dollars
to restore critical habitat,
replace failing bridges,
and invest in high-capacity transit.
Growing up in Seattle, we didn't agree on everything,
but we found ways to make progress
on important issues.
Now is our opportunity
to rebuild a stronger and more equitable Seattle
with fresh ideas and bold actions.
As mayor, I will pilot
a guaranteed basic-income program
so working families of any income level
can build futures here,
help our small businesses
recover from the pandemic,
expand and make child care more affordable,
invest in our neighborhoods
so they are safe and thriving,
and restore our parks and streets
to their intended uses
by adding 3,000 new places
for people experiencing homelessness
to call home.
I'm the only candidate with experience
running large organizations.
I know firsthand that change requires
vision and partnership.
This moment demands a leader
who will sit down
with those on the other side of an issue
to find common ground and move us all forward.
I'll work every day to show our kids
we can achieve the future we all want for Seattle.
I would be honored to have your vote.
