From Rachel Koller at Shift Zero: Excited to relay that BEPS was voted out of committee this morning (unanimous support!) and will be voted on in the full council meeting December 12th at 2pm as planned. We’ve had strong testimony in support at both council committee meetings. 

Brief, individualized emails to Seattle City Council are still a great way to show support. Here is an email template; send comments to council@seattle.gov.

Also wanted to highlight the BEPS op-ed in the Seattle Times today from Patience Malaba, HDC, Katie Garrow, MLK Labor, and Jessyn Farrell, Seattle OSE.

We will update everyone after the vote on December 12.
