Local Jobs
A brown bag discussion hosted by the Seattle City Council May, 29, looked
at the possible benefits of a local hire ordinance in Seattle. Supporters of
the Targeted Local Hire Coalition turned out in hundreds to urge the
council to pass an ordinance that would require construction projects to
hire local workers. Advocates say it would provide livable wage jobs and
training for economically disadvantaged and racially diverse
communities, that have been shut out of previous opportunities.
