Councilmember Andrew Lewis announces re-election campaign

Seattle City Councilmember Andrew Lewis announced last week that he will be running for re-election to the Seattle City Council.

He currently represents District 7, which includes Queen Anne, Uptown and a portion of Magnolia and Interbay.

“I am running for re-election to the Seattle City Council because I believe in the power of people to create change through shared action and a collective voice,” Lewis said in a release. “I am proud of the work I have done in my first term and look forward to continuing to work on behalf of the people of District 7.”

In his first term, Lewis championed legislation to reduce the cost of permanent supportive housing, protect and expand parks and green spaces, bring ranked choice voting to Seattle, and fund the successful outreach and enhanced shelter program JustCARE, according to the release.

Councilmember Lewis’ top priorities for the next four years are increasing access to affordable housing, addressing homelessness, combating climate change and keeping everyone in our community safe.
