Yesterday, I was sworn into office on my mother's Quran, and my sweet husband, Daud Ali, joined me.
I’m looking forward to representing all our communities on the Port of Seattle Commission. Thank you all for being so supportive throughout this journey! #LeadingTogether
Another American life cut short in broad daylight by ICE. We honor Alex Jeffrey Pretti, an ICU nurse who dedicated his life to helping others. The video is so clear. Shame on the White House for excusing this conduct. Accountability is not optional in a democracy! #ICEOUT

I met with Somali American community leaders today to discuss the deep damage inflicted by Donald Trump's harmful rhetoric and reckless deportations.
Here in Washington state, we recognize that diversity is a strength.

Hamdi Mohamed manages immigration issues for Seattle and directs policy at Sea-Tac Airport. Still, her power to counter President Donald Trump’s agenda is limited. st.news/4gHvC9u

We’re working to get our operations back on track today at Alaska Airlines and Horizon Air after a significant IT outage Sunday night resulted in a system-wide ground stop of flights. We appreciate the patience of our guests whose travel plans have been disrupted. We’re working to get them to their destinations as quickly as we can. Before heading to the airport, we encourage flyers to check their flight status.

Alaska Airlines has resolved its earlier IT outage and has resumed operations. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience, and encourage guests to check your flight status before heading to the airport.

Commission recently authorized $14M for the second iteration of our South King Co Community Impact Fund program over the next five years. It supports projects historically under-resourced, ethnically and culturally diverse communities around @flySEA. washingtonports.org/s/SKCCIF…

Art has the power to bring people together.
Impressed to see the unveiling of this beautiful mural with @MayorofSeattle. It was completed in record time with the community.
Created by local youth, it reflects a strong message of welcome & solidarity #WithRefugees.

We are always stronger together and we want to give thanks to our elected representatives for their support today, @HamdiSEA @tinaorwall @jorgebaron @MiaGregerson33 and SeaTac Councilmember Jake Simpson!

Treat to kick off our visit to the west coast with the @CityofSeattle and a reunion with old friends.
Being welcomed isn't a one-time event. Support from local leaders and community partners makes THE difference for refugees. They want to give back - just need the chance.

Your experience at SEA Airport now should feel pretty normal! WiFi is up and flight and bag information displays are operating for all airlines except United. Future updates will come weekly unless there are big changes. Thanks for your patience and have a great weekend!
Thank you to everyone who kept SEA airport operations running despite the recent challenges! SEA Airport operations are running smoothly with minimal delays and short TSA wait times. Happy Labor Day to all the hardworking employees who make it possible! 🛫🙌🏽 @flySEA

International travelers should give themselves extra time if coming to SEA. Some of our airline partners are currently providing manual bag tags and boarding passes.

The flySEA app is available to travelers who downloaded it prior to the start of the outage (Aug. 24). No updates are being made, but the map is still accessible and can be used to navigate the airport.
Hamdi Mohamed retweeted
Update - We are making progress on restoring the previously impacted elements of the baggage system. Multiple teams have implemented and are using a variety of methods to ensure bags reach their aircraft. Travelers should continue to pack carry-on luggage if possible.
