Angela Poe Russell: Politicians' public safety promises falling flat in Seattle
Wednesday, 18 December, 2024

Call me naïve, but I still believe the government should work for everyone, whether you're rich or poor, young or old. Your color or your class shouldn’t mean different treatment by government agencies. So when I saw that Metro Transit had to suspend a route due to safety concerns, it made me angry and sad. The suspended stop is located at 12th Avenue S. and Jackson Street in Seattle's Chinatown-International District. While it’s not known as the wealthy neighborhood, there are a lot of hard working people there, small businesses and senior citizens. The fact that the city couldn’t protect their ability to safely catch a bus at their preferred stop is embarrassing and unacceptable.
