概要
We're starting this morning with major developments happening right now in our region. Yesterday, January 30th, Seattle joined a nationwide general strike and shutdown organized by activist groups protesting ICE policies. It was a significant day for our community. Several of our beloved local institutions closed their doors in solidarity. The Seattle Art Museum and Tacoma Art Museum both shut down, with museum leadership acknowledging the emotional impact these policies have on our neighbors and communities across the country. Meanwhile, Hood Famous Cafe and Bar closed in protest, posting on social media that they were standing with the nationwide shutdown and refusing service to ICE officials or supporters.
Students at the University of Washington gathered in Red Square to make their voices heard as well. While most businesses stayed open, many Seattle entrepreneurs chose a different path, donating portions of their proceeds to support communities affected by these policies, particularly in Minneapolis where these issues have become a focal point nationally. The union representing fifty thousand grocery and healthcare workers across Washington, Idaho and Oregon voiced their support for the shutdown, emphasizing that stopping the flow of money is what creates real pressure for change.
On the political front, Congress passed a partial funding deal yesterday. The Senate approved funding for most government operations through the end of September, but there's a critical exception. The Department of Homeland Security, which includes ICE, will only receive funding for the next two weeks. That means Congress will be revisiting this issue very soon, and our community will be watching closely.
Looking at today's weather, we're expecting moderate rain throughout the day with temperatures hovering around fifty degrees. According to local forecasts, we'll see steady rain with winds picking up as the afternoon progresses. It's the kind of day that keeps Seattle looking like Seattle, so bundle up if you're heading out and bring an umbrella.
On a brighter note, the Seattle Kraken take on the Vegas Golden Knights tonight at home. If you're looking for something to do this weekend, catching some hockey might be the perfect escape from the wet weather.
For anyone heading out today, just remember the rain is here, but our community's spirit remains strong. We've seen that clearly over the past day with so many local businesses and institutions taking a stand for what they believe in.
