Levy for emergency radio network to appear on April 28th, special election ballot

A special election is being held throughout King County on April 28th to decide whether to approve a property tax levy to fund the replacement of the region’s emergency public safety radio network. The 45th District Democrats do not have a position on this measure, King County Proposition #1. However, some of our neighboring Democratic organizations have spoken out in support of Proposition 1. The 47th District Democrats support a yes vote and the executive board of the 31st District Democrats recommend the same.
