-My name is Rory O'Sullivan,
and I'm running for Seattle City Attorney.
Throughout my career,
I've looked for ways
to have a positive impact on our community.
During the foreclosure crisis,
I worked at Northwest Justice Project representing
homeowners facing foreclosure.
When the county declared a homelessness emergency,
I was serving on the front line as managing attorney
of the Housing Justice Project, protecting renters.
And during the pandemic,
I created a law firm to help unemployed folks
who were struggling to receive the benefits they'd earned.
But in my spare time as an activist,
I've focused on systems change.
I helped create our first in the nation
Democracy Voucher Program,
and I chaired the organization
that passed ranked choice voting for Seattle.
What I learned from these experiences
is that when voters and activists come together,
we can do big things.
Seattle voters are hungry for change.
They deserve leaders as courageous as they are,
and I have the experience to bring about the change we need.
I'll bring the Seattle Police Officer's Guild
to the negotiating table
to ensure we enact common sense accountability measures.
I'll strengthen our therapeutic courts
to help people disengage from the criminal legal system,
and make sure Seattle is safe for everyone.
I'll support our Office of Labor Standards
to help workers fight back against wage theft.
And I'll stand up to Trump. I'll fight to ensure
that Seattle receives the federal funding
we've been appropriated,
and I'll stand with community partners
to protect our friends and neighbors
who are being persecuted by the federal government.
I've been endorsed by every Democratic organization
that has endorsed in the city attorney's race.
I've been endorsed by unions, nonprofits, and elected leaders.

I hope to earn your support and your vote.
Thank you.
