-Hello, my name is Sarah Reyneveld,
and I am running for
King County Council position number 4.
I am a managing Assistant Attorney General,
public school parent, transit rider, union member,
community advocate and 25-year District 4 neighbor.
I am running for King County Council
because we need bold and transformative action
to address the scale of the challenges
facing our region.
I will bring experienced leadership
and tangible solutions to urgently address
King County's homelessness and behavioral-health crisis,
improve public safety and advance climate action.
I have a proven 20-year track record
taking on our toughest challenges,
standing up for our shared values and getting results.
As an Assistant Attorney General for over 10 years,
I have worked to protect vulnerable communities,
stood up to opioid manufacturers and held polluters accountable.
As Councilmember Kohl-Welles' representative
to the King County Women's Advisory Board,
I've worked to secure investments
in affordable housing, behavioral health,
and child care.
I want to continue this track record
of working collaboratively with our communities
to deliver results.
With your vote, I will deliver on a regional plan
to dramatically reduce homelessness
by expanding shelter units and increasing accountability
of our regional homelessness authority.
I am committed to protecting our public safety budget
and improving staffing and upstream solutions
that reduce crime, opioid addiction and gun violence.
I will build on my work with the Women's Advisory Board,
expanding behavioral health care,
child care and services
for survivors of gender-based violence.
I'll champion frequent, reliable and safe public transit,
tackle the climate crisis and protect our environment.
I am proud to be endorsed by Attorney General Bob Ferguson,
Lands Commissioner Hilary Franz,
County Councilmembers Kohl-Welles,
Zahilay and Dembowski,
the Washington Conservation Action,
National Women's Political Caucus,
Democrats and unions, including the Seattle Building Trades,
state employees and bus operators.
I'd appreciate your support.
