Kent City Council President Satwinder Kaur announced her campaign Monday for re-election to Position No. 2, highlighting her local roots, years of public service, and strong bipartisan support.
First elected in 2017 and re-elected unopposed in 2021, Kaur currently serves as Council President. She pledged to continue focusing on public safety, infrastructure improvements, parks expansion, and community engagement.
“This is because I am passionate about Kent. I want Kent to continue to be a great place to raise a family with safe streets, beautiful parks, thriving businesses, and vibrant community,” Kaur said in a news release.
A Kent native and University of Washington MBA graduate, Kaur highlighted her hands-on experience, including more than two decades of community service and leadership during the COVID-19 pandemic. Under her tenure, the city increased its police force from 105 to 167 officers and expanded community-based policing programs.
Kaur has secured endorsements from Kent Mayor Dana Ralph, all six city councilmembers, Kent Firefighters IAFF 1747, the Kent Education Association, and several regional and state leaders.
