"The seattle rain has entired.."

Do you mean "entered"?

[I want the USA back]

Taxpayer money. This is illegal and wrong.

[Getready]

Yes. I tried to send correction...but mobile device not do it yet...maybe i got water on the brain...

[Rusty0604]

It would be funny if they used the money to elect conservatives.

[BenLurkin]

The addled thought process behind this is truly dismaying.

As if it was conceived by persons under the long term influence of cannabis.

[rockrr]

More insanity from the Seattlunatics.

[School of Rational Thought]

I would give the money to the write in candidate. ;-)

[Organic Panic]

Money laundering. Pure and simple.

Remember, that is Seattle. Forget the cigarettes. It’d buy a lot of marijuana and Cheetos.

[b4me]

if they run good candidates they’d proxy hav emote people open to donating.

what they are doing now seems to be trying to force donations just sio they’re percentage of people donating will go up and they can feel better about the increase in people “participating”

[hal ogen]

Thieves. Lunatics.

[ridesthemiles]

Not in my book. First-—where in the Seattle city budget does this appear?

Secondly, IF this is to be called a tax refund or something akin to that, Seattle has absolutely NO power to tell the recipients how they can spend that money,

This is a ripe case for over-reaching by a city—and it belongs in court-—TOMORROW~!!!

Someone in the City Council needs to be on unemployment with a week!!!
