Yesterday, I issued an emergency proclamation as our region is experiencing historic storms and flooding. This proclamation allows King County to move resources quickly, support our cities, and keep people safe.

It’s time for another Executive Update! January has been the first full month of my new administration and our teams have been hard at work opening new housing, expanding transit, organizing federal response, recovering from floods, and building a team that can begin advancing policy priorities.

To my core campaign team, volunteers, finance committee, donors, door knockers, house hosts, and voters: Thank you. I woke up feeling deeply grateful for all the work you put into this campaign. I appreciate all of you.

Seattle and King County can’t solve our biggest challenges alone. Real progress requires partnership. That’s why Erika Evans and I will team up to build safer neighborhoods, support people in crisis, and stand up for workers. But before we can get to work, we need you. Return before Tuesday!

Mark your calendars for March 28! For the first time in history, riders will be able to hop on Sound Transit light rail and cross Lake Washington east to west on the world’s first light rail crossing over a floating bridge. Thank you to everyone who made this possible!

Black history is American history. It was an honor to lead the Black History Month flag raising celebration. Thank you to all of those who joined us in recognizing and celebrating the contributions of African American people to the United States and King County!

Over the past couple weeks we have moved from election night to building the foundation of a new administration. Join us and share your ideas at girmaytransition2025.com

Yesterday: A major milestone for South King County! Light rail officially opened 3 new stations in Kent, Des Moines, and Federal Way. Students, workers, and families now have fast and reliable connections to education, jobs, health care, the airport, and more.

Let me add some context here because I know how this can sound. This is not saying you don’t love your kids. And it’s definitely not saying you need to be endlessly calm or never get frustrated. Parenting is hard. You’re going to have moments where you’re short, where you snap, where you don’t
