Get Seattle Moving
Transportation will continue to be a paramount issue for our economy, the environment and the people who live in Seattle. In order for businesses to thrive, generating jobs and tax revenues, we must be able to move goods and people around the region efficiently. Putting a relentless focus on building light rail and replacing the Alaskan Way Viaduct (State Route 99) with a tunnel is an essential part of creating a 21st century transportation network.

Keep Our Neighborhoods Safe
Public Safety is the paramount duty of the City. Our police and fire personnel are first rate and should be recognized as such. We need to give them the tools - training and equipment - to do these difficult jobs, ensure accountability for actions taken, and ensure we are the most prepared city in the United States for natural or man-made catastrophes.

Create Jobs and Opportunity For All
Economic Opportunity during these difficult times means creating jobs and an environment that invites new investment in our City.

Build Strong Families and Healthy Communities
Healthy Communities are the heart of a great city. Every part of this city is unique and vital to our growth and our ability to sustain what we love about living and working here. Our diverse cultures bring life, vitality and economic growth to Seattle. As Mayor, I want to foster a renewed commitment to our neighborhoods. That means paying attention to the needs of each community and responding to those needs in a meaningful way.
