Summary
This week, executive producer Ashley Smith is filling in for Jane, and she’s bringing updates on the data centers maybe coming to Seattle, the fight between the Community Assisted Response & Engagement (CARE) team and the Seattle Police Officers Guild (SPOG), and, of course, good news for your Good News Day Tuesday. Joining Ashley are contributor Hannah Krieg and producer Sam. Hannah breaks down the 64,000 (and counting) letters sent to the mayor and city council calling for a moratorium on data center construction in the city of Seattle. Then, Sam explains the contract fight between SPOG and the CARE team over limitations on the calls CARE can be dispatched for. And lastly, Ashley celebrates the NFL draft news and more.
