Seattle’s new mayor Katie Wilson was recently sworn into office – the first Seattle inauguration in over a decade that’s been open to the public. Coming from a background of activism and advocacy, Wilson plans to make Seattle a city by the people, for the people. “This is your city,” she declared to the crowd during her inauguration ceremony.
Wilson, 43, is the youngest Seattle mayor in a generation.
