Ami Nguyen announced on Feb. 12 that she is running for the Seattle City Council in District 3.
Nguyen, a King County public defender and former tenants’ rights lawyer, said she will bring a strong and nuanced approach to policy change in Seattle, focusing on municipal justice reform, homelessness prevention, and childcare access.
“My experience as a renter and tenants’ rights attorney has given me the insight to develop policies that empowers renters so that the system is no longer a tool only for the rich,” said Nguyen.
Nguyen attended Stanford University and UCLA School of Law.
