You faced down attack dogs, blizzards and rubber bullets,” legislation co-sponsor and Councilmember Kshama Sawant told the crowd Wednesday in the council chambers, referring to protest camps in North Dakota that drew thousands of demonstrators, including many from Washington tribes. “If we do not fight we will not win.”

Added Sawant as she cast her vote: “Let’s build on this, make sure other cities move to divest from Wells Fargo.”

In addition to terminating the city’s contract with Wells Fargo, the bill would also require that social-justice principles be considered when awarding all city contracts, including construction projects.


Wells Fargo is a lot of slimey bastards. But when you are holding a meeting with people banging the door to address housing, homeless and other issues that effect the City, this is what you are spending your energy on?
