AGP Executive Report

Last update: an hour ago

Homelessness Policy: Mayor Katie Wilson is taking Seattle’s homelessness pilot citywide, with coordinated outreach and shelter placements alongside encampment removals. The city plans to bring about $118 million in service contracts back under direct city oversight, but has set no target for reducing homelessness. Congressional Race: House Speaker Mike Johnson rallied in Chehalis for Republican John Braun, whose close race against Democratic Rep. Marie Gluesenkamp Perez could help determine control of Congress. State-Federal Clash: Attorney General Nick Brown joined 22 other attorneys general challenging federal warrantless immigration arrests, arguing they violate constitutional protections. Local Regulation: Spokane County extended its data-center permitting pause through June 2027, leaving time for new county rules or state legislation. Election Watch: Washington’s ballot drop boxes are open, while UW researchers warn operational changes could delay 20,000 ballots. Gov. Bob Ferguson is urging voters to reject I-645, arguing its proposed income tax could threaten child-care funding.
