The Seattle mayor’s race is divided into the displacement crisis processing policies

Seattle The displacement crisis A gap was opened between two progressive candidates before the November Mayor’s race.

The Democratic Democratic Mayor Bruce Harrell confirmed his record of clearing the camps even with the growth of the displaced population in the city.

Harril told Harrell Seattle Times In a report published on Tuesday.

In contrast, his opponent, progressive activist Katie Wilson, took what Seattle Times described as the “most sympathetic” approach, and the call for more shelters funded through “new progressive revenue sources” or new taxes.

However, Wilson also admitted the need to transfer camps from public areas such as gardens.

“The administration mainly transfers people from one place to another, without actually introducing them with the support they need,” Wilson told Fox News Digital. “So this is definitely not an sympathetic approach. It is also not a good use of our public money because we spend all these money on the transfer of people. We spend all this money in an attempt to provide services and drug therapy, but if people do not have a stable place, this will not work.”

“There will be positions in which we need to move the camps or move the people, although we are unable to put them at home at that moment. I think this will have to be on the basis of each case separately, but in general, the more we can transfer people inward, the better.”

This represents a transformation from the 2021 progress of Harril, M. Lorena González, who fully opposed the camps cleansing. Harrell, who managed a supportive police campaign at the time, Gonzalez was defeated by about 30 points.
