Seattle led the way. Your move, San Francisco. Tax Silicon Valley to fix the housing crisis.

Washington moved the least right out of all the states in the last election (every state moved right). I’m proud to be in this city! We really are pushing super progressive policies, even though our current city council is more moderate. Hopefully that changes soon, as we put in a young progressive recently!
