| Collapse all
Jeff has worked to protect democracy and election integrity through board work with Honest Elections Seattle and Fix Democracy First. He helped the Access to Justice Board write a guide on accommodating people with disabilities in legal proceedings. Governor Inslee appointed him to the Achieving a Better Life Experience (ABLE) Governing Board, where he is Board Chair. He was unanimously elected as the first President of WFSE Local 562. Jeff served on the King County Citizens’ Elections Oversight Committee.
Jeff is endorsed by former 36th Representative Mary Lou Dickerson, 36th District Democrats, King County Democrats, Washington State Labor Council, Washington State Democrats’ Environment and Climate Caucus, and more than 100 community leaders and organizations. He has the "Seal of Approval" from the Alliance for Gun Responsibility victory fund.
- Housing Affordability: Many of our neighbors can no longer afford to live in their homes, so they move out of the city, or onto our streets. To ease supply constraints, we need tens of thousands of additional housing units built in the region over the next decade. I will support smart density legislation, prioritizing transit-oriented development. For those who are unhoused, we need more funding for shelters, tiny homes, supportive housing, and affordable housing options.
- Environmental and Climate Justice: We live in one of the most naturally beautiful regions of the world, yet our glaciers are melting and our summers days are choked with smoke from forest fires. Washington State has the opportunity to be a global leader in the transition to renewable energy sources, building green infrastructure with union workers, and investing in the marginalized communities most affected by pollution and climate change.
- Keeping our Communities Safe: Crime is increasing nationwide, including in our neighborhoods. Keeping our streets, homes, and small businesses safe requires a multi-pronged approach. We must fully fund our criminal justice system, including the courts, prosecutors and defenders, social workers, health care providers, investigators, first responders, and law enforcement, while creating and maintaining police accountability standards, training, and independent enforcement. We must attack the root causes of criminal activity by funding mental health, behavioral health, addiction treatment, and Community Violence Intervention programs, while providing the housing and basic needs necessary to support individual recovery.
