Woke Seattle Mayor Katie Wilson Housing Pledge Flops Launches Task Force

Seattle Mayor Katie Wilson ran on a bold affordability platform — and her centerpiece housing promise just collapsed. After a proposed 80% developer fee cut went nowhere and permit numbers cratered, Wilson's answer is a 12-month task force. Because nothing says "I'm serious about housing" like commissioning another committee.Sean breaks down why Wilson's progressive-revenue agenda is structurally incapable of building anything. Developers don't build where the math doesn't work — and Seattle's combination of sky-high fees, slow permitting, and political hostility to capital is a textbook recipe for a housing drought. While Wilson forms task forces, Bellevue is quietly running laps on new construction.The broader picture is grim. Tech layoffs, business flight, and some of the most expensive gasoline in the country are squeezing the working families Wilson claims to champion. Karen Bass is burning homeless funds in LA; Katie Wilson is burning political capital on promises she structurally cannot keep. The rent projections from urbanist groups aren't optimistic — and interest rates aren't helping.Subscribe to @reasonablenews and hit the notification bell so you don't miss daily PNW politics, housing policy, and the news the mainstream won't touch.#NFRP #Seattle #KatieWilsonGO PREMIUM WITH REASONABLE+ FOR UNCENSORED ACCESS 🌟https://ReasonableTV.com/🛍️ MERCH - https://Store.ReasonableTV.com/💬 JOIN our FREE Discord Community!
