THE 911 WAIT TIME IN PIERCE COUNTY IS 45 MINUTES!!! ABSOLUTELY UNACCEPTABLE. When your family calls 911, every second matters. As a member of the political establishment, Brenda Lykins is responsible for this catastrophe. Mike Solan has a plan to fix this. A VOTE FOR MIKE SOLAN IS A VOTE FOR CHANGE. No excuses. No political talking points. Pierce County families deserve answers. #PierceCounty #PublicSafety

Show up tomorrow October 15th in Tacoma with @SolanForPierce where I will give a state of tri-county perspective on how we became #1 in homeless growth, #4 in death by overdose, and #1 in retail theft. 👇🏼Voting matters.

PUBLIC SAFETY STARTS WITH SHOWING UP. Public safety is the cornerstone of Mike Solan's campaign for Pierce County Council. Mike recently toured the Pierce County Jail and uncovered serious staffing concerns: approximately 47 corrections officer vacancies and an average of 700 inmates daily. Now he's challenging his opponent, Brenda Lykins, to tour the jail herself and discuss Pierce County's public safety challenges firsthand. Watch Mike's update and hear his challenge. Get off the bench. Vote. SolanForPierce.com #MikeSolan #PierceCounty #PublicSafety

This Saturday, October 10, at 9 a.m., Mike Solan will host a Facebook Live to answer questions about traffic and infrastructure in District 7. A recent post drew a lot of questions about congestion on Highway 16 and State Route 302, and about how that backup affects county roads headed toward the Key Peninsula. Mike will take those questions directly on the live video. The event is online. You can find the details and set a reminder here: facebook.com/events/92929639… If this is your commute or your neighborhood, please join and ask your question. Mike is running for Pierce County Council because these problems need a straight answer before Election Day. Donate. Volunteer. SolanForPierce.com #MikeSolan #PierceCounty #Reasonable

This is what District 7 gets with Mike. He doesn’t wait for a briefing. A $600,000 ride that moves about six people in twelve hours, some of them back to their own cars! A peninsula with no deputies. He’s already in motion about it. That’s called LEADERSHIP. Safer. More affordable. On the street, not from a dais. Get off the bench and JUST VOTE. Donate. Volunteer.
