-I'm Teresa Mosqueda, and I'm running for re-election
to the King County Council to keep fighting for
every family in District 8.
From Vashon Island to the Chinatown-International District,
from Burien up to Belltown, I want our district
to have the opportunity to be healthy, housed, and to
be able to make ends meet.
What I've done on King County Council so far is delivered.
I chair the Board of Health and the Health, Housing, and
Human Services Committee.
I've used those roles to make sure that we're investing
in caring for all residents.
That means making sure our public health
clinics remain open and accessible to all residents,
including immigrants and refugees.
I've secured stable funding for domestic violence and
sexual assault survivors.
I've championed workforce housing investments, wage parity
for human service workers, and help pass the King County
Parks Levy to make sure we're investing in climate
resilience strategies.
My priorities going forward are very clear.
I want to expand access to affordable housing.
I want to prevent displacement for working families.
I want to improve community safety through behavioral
health investments and reduce gun violence.
I want to invest in what workers need every day.
accessible around-the-clock transit, affordable child
care, and good union wage jobs.
I am proud to have been able to represent District 8, and I
ask for your additional support going into this election.
I am thankful to have the support of Congresswoman
Jayapal, Governor Ferguson, Attorney General Nick Brown,
MLK Labor, SEIU, UFCW, the building trades in every
labor union that has endorsed my election.
I have support from environmental groups, housing,
and health champions.
I hope to earn your support for
another term on King County Council.
I believe King County works best when
we lead with compassion, accountability, and a commitment
to opportunity for all.
I ask for your support going into this
election so I can keep serving you on King County
Council and building a county where every person
can be healthy, housed, and resilient.
Thank you.
