ENDORSEMENTS
I am humbled by and grateful for the support our campaign received! The following organizations endorsed my vision for the Port of Seattle, and they represent labor unions, community organizations, legislative democratic districts, and leaders all across our communities. I look forward to building a better future together.
Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal (WA-7)
“Our economic and environmental crises require swift and decisive action, and Toshiko understands that the Port of Seattle can play a pivotal role in making that happen. Toshiko represents the very best that public service can offer: an uncompromising commitment to prioritize the voices of everyday people over big money and center the values of community members who are directly impacted by policies. What the Port does at this critical juncture is imperative to addressing the crises we face and promoting the health and vitality of King County. I'm supporting Toshiko for the Port Commission because we are in a fight for our future, and with Toshiko leading the way, we can win it.”
“Hasegawa is an accomplished leader of numerous civil rights and social justice organizations with multiple degrees, and she has an impressive “Blue New Deal” plan for the Port (basically a Green New Deal with an emphasis on union jobs). She also comes with endorsements from numerous labor, environmental, and Democratic groups (some of which endorsed Steinbrueck in previous years)… Vote Hasegawa”
“Toshiko Grace Hasegawa is a breath of fresh air and deserves your vote.”
