Beschreibung

Seattle’s City Council is cracking down on predatory real estate tactics with a new “Do Not Solicit” bill, designed to shield homeowners—especially seniors and low-income families—from aggressive off-market sales pressure. Backed by community advocates and inspired by protections in New York and Philly, the legislation would empower residents to block unsolicited contact and penalize violators with steep fines—up to $2,000 for repeat offenses—with legal recourse available. The full council votes July 28; if passed, it could reshape housing equity in the city. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.

Shooting in North Seattle Leaves Three Women Injured | Seattle News

A shocking shooting in North Seattle left three women injured early Monday— one with multiple gunshot wounds, two with glass shards from bullets hitting their car—all stable and able to speak with detectives. Over 20 shell casings at the scene suggest a deliberate, sustained attack. The suspect arrived in a dark car, exited, and opened fire on a parked vehicle before fleeing. Authorities are urgently reviewing surveillance footage and interviewing witnesses to determine motive—targeted or otherwise—with no immediate public threat, but the hunt for the shooter is far from over.

Episode Seattle Delays Universal Meals | Seattle News Cover

Seattle Delays Universal Meals | Seattle News

Seattle’s universal school meals program is now delayed until the 2027-2028 school year, with city council president Joy Hollingsworth pushing for the change to redirect funds toward immediate weekend and break-time food aid for low-income families this coming school year. While Mayor Katie Wilson isn’t fully on board, she supports the council’s decision and applauds Hollingsworth’s commitment to fighting hunger, especially as food assistance programs face recent cuts. Hollingsworth frames this as a “both/and” strategy to tackle food insecurity holistically, aiming to close Seattle’s food equity gap by ensuring kids have meals outside of school hours. A new food voucher program launching in 2026 will help about 6,800 more students and ease family burdens before the universal meals begin.
