No better way to kick off Affordable Housing Week than in a room full of people who refuse to give up on this fight. 🏠 Grateful to join housing advocates and fellow electeds yesterday – the need is real, the coalition is strong, and the work continues. #AffordableHousingWeek #KingCounty

Incredible new immersive art exhibition in D8, at Mini Mart City Park in Georgetown! Beautiful opening event tonight until 8p — you can also stop by Georgetown Art Attack and Equinox Studios nearby and make an evening of it!

The river remembers. Once Wild River opens May 9 in Seattle - a powerful, multi-artist exhibition led by Timothy White Eagle exploring the tension between the living river & systems built to contain it. Mini Mart City Park, Seattle May 9 – June 21 Opening Night: May 9, 4–8pm https://bit.ly/3QQMWQD

Sound Transit's $34.5B shortfall is real, but as a Board member, what I’m hearing is a “yes, and.” Yes, build it all. And yes, we need more financing tools to get there. West Seattle. Ballard. Everett. Tacoma. Our communities were promised a full system. 🚆 komonews.com/news/local/s...

We’re not backing down on light rail expansion. Even with budget challenges, we’re committed to delivering the transit our communities voted for. 🚊 www.king5.com/article/news...

🌹 Today is National MMIW Awareness Day. We say their names. We honor their lives. We refuse to look away. #MMIW #SayHerName #NoMoreStolenSisters

Come out for our next Transit Town Hall in Seattle on Tuesday with @mayorofseattle.bsky.social @girmayzahilay.bsky.social @cmtmosqueda.bsky.social and @cmdanstrauss.bsky.social transportationchoices.org/transit-town...

Frank Chopp’s legacy goes far beyond just buildings – it will be the lives he touched and those who are able to receive the care they need because of his vision and passion. It is investments like this facility that help us rise up to meet the behavioral health crisis our community faces today!

REI has a chance to be different, but right now it’s falling short. @reiunion.bsky.social

Unlicensed food carts near Seattle stadiums aren’t just a public health issue – workers behind those carts may be victims of coerced labor. Grateful to King 5 for their investigation shining a light on this. Accountability for exploiters protects workers.

“Kiddos are our current and future leaders. Their best interests should be at the heart of every policy we pass and every decision we make.” www.vashonbeachcomber.com/2026/04/15/y... I applaud the work of Glory Busic and Emma Shampain to implement the Youth Bill of Rights passed at council.

#TeamTeresa ran into incredible @localprogress.bsky.social partner & artist Kristi Nakata at #GeorgetownArtAttack at @siderailcollective last night! You never know who you'll run into in #D8. Check out her pieces at @kristiknots! www.kristiknots.com

ICYMI #TeamTeresa stands with the community calling for saving our co-op preschool program. @westseattleblog.com.web.brid.gy westseattleblog.com/2026/04/vide...

I dropped by the first Starbucks today to show my support for the workers who are forming their union with @sbworkersunited.org Solidarity!

Team Teresa is standing with @aftwa.bsky.social calling on the Board of Community and Technical Colleges to restore funding for the co-op preschool programs in Seattle. It’s a vital resource for not just the kiddos but also the parents to get the skills to help our children succeed.

The World Cup is coming & we’re making sure it leaves behind more than memories. ✊ Today’s HHHS committee heard from MLK Labor, SEIU Local 6, & the Seattle World Cup host committee on building a legacy of prosperity for workers & communities who too often are shut out of mega event planning.

Big news for Vashon Island! King County Water Taxi - aka Your Friend With a Boat - sailing on Sundays starting April 12th! @kingcountymetro.bsky.social @girmayzahilay.bsky.social kingcountywatertaxiblog.com/2026/04/03/v...

This is the moment we've been working toward. 🚆 West Seattle light rail is shovel-ready for construction – and we're not letting up until it's built. #WestSeattleLightRail #SoundTransit

You can't build half a system. 🚆✊ Wednesday night, West Seattle showed up and made that clear. Youngstown Cultural Arts Center was wall-to-wall neighbors, workers, and advocates – all united behind one message: keep building. The board decision is coming. We are not stopping now.

The workers at Alesig are uniting to form their union with @teamsters117.bsky.social to have a voice on the job & to be able to provide the best paratransit service to King County residents. I stand with them in their fight for their union and for better wages and benefits! Go, Fight, Win!

Thanks so much to @kuow.org and Libby for hosting Councilmember Barón and me on Soundside to talk about our latest efforts to defend and empower King County’s immigrant community! Catch us tonight at 8pm on the radio or wherever you get your podcasts!

Big day for King County. 🏠✊ Proud to stand with @girmayzahilay.bsky.social as he signed the Breaking the Cycle EO – 500 units of supportive housing in 500 days, activating underutilized land, and coordinating across systems to truly end homelessness. This is leadership. Let's go! @kingcounty.gov

West Seattle is #ShovelReady – and we can’t build half a system. Every delay costs workers, riders, and our climate. Everett to Tacoma. West Seattle to Ballard. Keep building. All of it. 🚊 #WestSeattleLightRail #SoundTransit @localprogress.bsky.social

The coalition showed up. 🚆✊ Labor leaders, transit advocates, and community members packed the @sound-transit.bsky.social board today with one message: keep building. West Seattle. Ballard. Everett to Tacoma. This region's future is on the tracks – don't stop now.

Ferried over to Vashon last week for Vashon Household's Housing Forum & ADU open house – great conversations about removing barriers to backyard cottages, composting toilets, and more affordable housing options on the island. Grateful for this community's tireless advocacy! 🏡⛴️

“Anyone who needs additional medical treatment for post-traumatic stress disorder, for anxiety, for addiction issues that they may be facing, for traumatic brain injury, we don’t want to have any additional barriers with potentially seeking medical treatment that could help them,” Mosqueda said.

King County property will not be used to intimidate or detain our immigrant and refugee communities. Today my proposal passed – banning county-owned property from being used for federal immigration enforcement. We will use every tool to keep KC safe for all.

King County just took a historic step. Motion 2026-0017 passed – decriminalizing entheogen-related activities for adults and directing our resources toward real harms, not people seeking healing. Science, community, and compassion won today.

Tomorrow I'm bringing a motion before KC Council to decriminalize entheogens & make prosecution of adults seeking relief the county's lowest enforcement priority. Vets, first responders, researchers, & community members showed up to share why this matters. It's time we stop criminalizing healing.

I continue to stand with @sbworkersunited.org in their fight for a fair contract. No contract, No coffee!

King County Councilmember Teresa Mosqueda – a member of the National Association of Hispanic County Officials – joined the organization in condemning the sexual abuse by César Chávez and stands with the community in the call for accountability

Thank you @westsideseattle.bsky.social for your coverage of my efforts to get West Seattle the light rail that will connect the working families of West Seattle to the rest of our growing region. We are making progress and can’t let up now. www.westsideseattle.com/robinson-pap...

The work SoundTransit did on #WestSeattle shows what’s possible when we advance design & aggressively cut costs: properties avoided, ridership retained & billions saved. Now is the time to build on this momentum, move forward on shovel-ready West Seattle & commit to light rail to Ballard & the spine

Your light rail. Your questions. Your community. 🚉 Join us April 1st at Youngstown Cultural Arts Center for the Spring West Seattle Light Rail Forum – and help shape critical decisions about the region's ST3 expansion. Link in bio for details.

Thanks so much to KC regional office of gun violence prevention for convening a 3rd White Center public safety community meeting! Thanks also to our gracious hosts, the White Center Food Bank, and to all the community partners who were the impetus for gathering - especially SeaMar CHC.

Congratulations to @cityofrenton.bsky.social for protecting the health and safety of their residents like many other jurisdictions in our region. www.rentonreporter.com/2026/03/16/r...

Congratulations to @actsonstage.bsky.social on March 14 2026 officially being proclaimed as Acts on Stage Day. This paired with their incredible new play “Smart People” made for an incredible event. You can catch this thought provoking performance through March 22nd.

Vashon Community Food Bank’s location is what it looks like when community comes together to meet a critical need. Glad I got to join for the grand opening with so many community partners and supporters.

Seattle is a union town & King county is a Union County! Our home grown Co-op needs to do right be their workers! “They’re disrespecting the very workers that made them profitable,” @reiunion.bsky.social @ufcw3000.bsky.social @girmayzahilay.bsky.social @knkx.org www.knkx.org/business/202...

Thank you to @mlklabor.bsky.social Liuna242 & SEA Building Trades 4 🔥testimony to the @soundtransit.bsky.social brd in support of keeping ⬆️ momentum on WS light rail expansion! New transit service will connect more working families to economic opportunity & create 1,000s of good union jobs!

I join @wslc.bsky.social in thanking the @wasenatedemocrats.bsky.social & @housedemocrats.wa.gov for their hard work making our state’s upside down tax code more fair by passing the Millionaires Tax! Next stop, @governorferguson.bsky.social desk!

As I said yesterday, the workers of REI deserve a fair contract now! @girmayzahilay.bsky.social @ufcw3000.bsky.social @reiunion.bsky.social @fox13seattle.bsky.social www.fox13seattle.com/video/fmc-be...

A strong vibrant dwntwn whr people bth wrk & live is critical to our community. The State of Dwntwn SEA is only as 💪🏽 as the people. I’ll wrk w/ any company committed to investing in those who make them profitable & building healthy well resourced communities that show what real abundance looks like.

I got to spend time this afternoon with the wonderful team supporting @jayapal.house.gov along w/ @girmayzahilay.bsky.social & @councilmember-amr.bsky.social talking about how our fight is interconnected and how what happens in DC shows up locally. We are all in this together!

REI needs to invest in the ones wearing the green vests! Workers deserve a contract that lets them enjoy time outside too! Today I joined workers, @girmayzahilay.bsky.social and @mlklabor.bsky.social calling on REI to come back to the table & settle a fair contract.

Incredibly insightful coverage by @asamnews.bsky.social of our efforts to ban new detention centers here locally and our tragic history of the internment of Japanese Americans. asamnews.com/2026/03/09/a...

ICYMI the Vashon-Maury Island Beachcomber also covered our work to prevent new detention facilities in King County. www.vashonbeachcomber.com/2026/03/04/k...

Joined my ST board colleagues for a light rail tour covering West Seattle, downtown, SODO, Chinatown/ID, lower Queen Anne, Interbay and Ballard. Our neighborhoods shouldn’t feel worlds apart, and light rail will help build our region’s connectedness.
