In opposition to Trump administration dramatic cuts to medical research funding, I signed on, as Mayor of #Spokane, to this amicus brief.

Spokane Together is creating a healthier, smarter stronger city: 90 parks- one within a 10 minute walk for every resident, parks or school improvements in all 29 neighborhoods, better facilities & “in real life”activities like sports or the arts for every student every day. #Spokane #SpokaneTogether

The Main Market is one of my favorite places in #Spokane. In addition to #localfood they have bulk bins and affordable options and a salad and soup bar. The burrito bowl is a lunch favorite of mine.

#Spokane is moving up in the bike-friendly city rankings my.spokanecity.org/news/release...

Behold! During COVID some anonymous hero put this bicycle atop an old bridge pylon in the middle of the #Spokane River. It's still there.

Excited to hear Lucas’s new music in this great venue! www.hamilton.live

This is a terrifying time for many in our community and it’s crucial that everyone knows their rights. Spokane non-profit Manzanita House created a brief guide explaining the rights that all people in the US have — regardless of immigration status. rangemedia.co/immigration-...

The MLK unity march in Spokane was amazing and comforting. ❤️ #Spokane #MLK #Unity

Hey all, this is the first in a new partnership with @rangemedia.co and @favsnews.bsky.social. Rather than competing, news kegs are working together to let people know what’s going on.

See you at the rally, march and resource fair in #Spokane #MLK2025

This is great news for the #Spokane regional economy- a nearly $50 million investment in our Tech Hub!

Thank you! @communityjedi.bsky.social There are many people who love this city and contribute to its vitality. I appreciate them! #Spokane

Spokane/WA folks! What do you want to see out of journalism this year? What are your hopes for @rangemedia.co’s coverage?

Plenty of good live music in #Spokane “Spokane is Dead” plays at Zola 8pm Jan 2. Grateful Dead covers, dancing, and “Tilt-a-Wheel”booths to enjoy your food and beverages.

#FridayFavs - Made With Love bakery and coffee shop in #Spokane - West Central neighborhood. I love their version of pop tarts!

I’m excited about this 5 year, $6 million Tree Equity program in the City of Spokane, made possible by the Inflation Reduction Act, the USDA, the Lands Council, & The Spokane Conservation District. my.spokanecity.org/parksrec/new...

We funded this project when I was at Commerce. Transitional housing has better outcomes for homeless people & for the neighborhood than shelters. www.khq.com/news/homeles...

One of my favs is this “weird and fun” gift shopping block (on Howard) in downtown #Spokane. www.spokesman.com/stories/2024...
