  • Résumé

  • King County Executive Dow Constantine has announced his plan to step down at the end of next year. We take a closer look at the move and the emerging tension between the centrist Seattle City Council and King County government, which has moved further left.

    Erica highlights the struggle in this recent story about a city council proposal to turn a sobering center into "a secure facility for people arrested for public drug use and possession." King County's not interested.

    We also debate and discuss what prompted Constantine to make the move after serving in the role since the Mike McGinn era, Constantine's legacy, and who will replace him.

    Plus, Seattle City Councilmember Cathy Moore's proposal to tax the rich, and why it's destined to fail.

    Our editor is Quinn Waller.
