Hundreds of Seattle-area business and technology leaders formed a coalition this week to push for racial equity at their companies and in city government.
The Washington Coalition of Businesses for Racial Justice sent a letter to Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkan on Tuesday urging her to implement police reforms recommended by Seattle’s Community Police Commission.
The demands include opening up disciplinary hearings to the public and removing limitations, deadlines, and other barriers to investigating police misconduct. The group is also asking the city to implement reforms that curb the power of the Seattle Police Officers Guild.
