I saw those guys at The Gorge in ’83. 😀 Preface With the passage of time, the problems created for residents by Sea-Tac Airport get forgotten and this works to the advantage of The Port Of Seattle. Forget ever obtaining any justice, the passage of time prevents even understanding that any crimes have been committed.
Highline highlights: It’s a technicality
Contrary to my expectations, today’s Highline Forum was the most ‘content-rich’ affair I’ve been to in quite a while. If you weren’t there you shoulda been there. Or maybe I’ve been going to these pointless meetings for so long I’ve become so used to boredom that any excitement gets me hot and bothered. I don’t
A Letter To Adam Smith Re. ANCA
Dear Congressman, Per my public comment today. I would like you to consider creating legislation to provide some very minor changes to the 1990 ANCA law. I’ve included the specifics in the attachment. As you will see, the changes I would like to see represent a total of merely eleven (11) lines of text. In

Tina Orwall is a State Representative For the 33rd District. This letter is in regard to a conversation I had with her after the 33rd District Democrats Town Hall on March 23, 2019 and the LiUNA Hall in Des Moines.

A Letter To Mayor Jimmy Matta re. Port Package Problems
I’m often asked why I’m so gung ho about legislative action as opposed to working through issues via the SAMP (Sustainable Airport Master Plan). My flip answer is “If the Port wants me to do it? I’m immediately skeptical.” And the Port wants to drive all community issues through the SAMP. But the substantive reason
Priorities

Sea-Tac Arabia

Well that’s a relief! SB5370
TVW Video (1:45:00) Just a quick note to give followers a bit of the sausage making in those whole boring process of SB5370. One nice thing about State business is that even the Executive Sessions are available on video. Ironically, this is one of their arguments against having full transparency of all documents. At the
