<html><head><meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"></head><body style="overflow-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; line-break: after-white-space;">Hi All,<div><br></div><div>I attended a meeting today with allies about the Seattle transportation levy, discussing <a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1_FkSXhWprQ7XRbqXewO5JiB5ZntjZCOGtPo3_mcWq00/edit#heading=h.drxknzxuw0pg">this advocates’ vision document</a> and also what it would look like to run a “no” campaign if the City’s proposal is really bad. There’s going to be a meeting <b>next Monday 1/29 at 3pm</b> to dig into the transit sections, which still need some work. Do any of you want to join that meeting? Let me know and I can add you to the invitation!</div><div><br></div><div>Also I wanted to make sure everyone in this group saw that we’re promoting two transit-related email actions,<a href="https://actionnetwork.org/letters/the-weakest-link/"> one to tell Sound Transit</a> they need to do better for riders during the service disruption, and <a href="https://actionnetwork.org/letters/fight-for-the-40/">the other to prevent the Route 40 corridor project from being further delayed</a> or watered down. Please send those emails and share widely!</div><div><br></div><div>- Katie</div><div><br><div>
