We Are In + KNKX Present: 2023 Homelessness Debates
October 11, 2023 @ 5:30 pm - 6:30 pm
A message from We Are In and KNKX:
As November’s Seattle City Council and King County Council elections near, homelessness remains top of mind for voters. Join We Are In and KNKX Public Radio to hear candidates running in some of our most competitive races discuss and debate how they plan to address and prevent homelessness. The 2023 Homelessness Debates will be hosted and moderated by Scott Greenstone, reporter at KNKX, and will be open to the public at Seattle University’s Pigott Auditorium over the course of two nights. Save your free seat before they run out!
Night 2, on October 11, will include candidates from Seattle City Council District 3 (Eastlake, Madison Park, Capitol Hill, Central District, First Hill, Leschi), Seattle City Council District 4 (Wallingford, Wedgwood, Ravenna, Roosevelt, University District, Laurelhurst), and King County Council District 8 (Southern, Western and Central parts of Seattle, White Center, Burien, Tukwila).
The debates will also be streamed virtually on We Are In’s Facebook page(@WeAreInKingCo). You don’t need a Facebook account to watch.
We hope to see you there!

Fun Fact: Youth crime actually is about on par with pre pandemic numbers, at least according to case referral numbers to King County prosecutors. @finchfrii asked me about this last week after the @KCCouncil vote. https://kingcounty.gov/en/dept/pao/about-king-county/about-pao/data-reports/dashboard#:~:text=The%20sections%20of%20the%20dashboard,explained%20in%20the%20dashboard%20itself.
For those who have asked what small businesses DONT want to permanently enshrine CM Hollingsworth's subminimum wage, they signed this op-ed.
So excited to see the community across WA State supporting @BobFergusonAG so he can TURN OUT THE VOTE and win his race to be the next Governor of the Great State of WA! ❤️💪🏾
