Seattle City Councilmembers joined calls Monday, pushing for the Seattle Police Officers Guild to remove Mike Solan as the union’s president.
Shortly after a mob laid siege the U.S. Capitol building in Washington, D.C., Solan sent out tweets that appeared to blame Antifa and Black Lives Matter supporters. That saw the likes of Mayor Jenny Durkan, retired city police chief Carmen Best, and former safety advisor Scott Lindsay calling on Solan to resign.
On Monday, city councilmembers echoed those sentiments, implying that Solan’s ability to negotiate a new contract for Seattle’s police officers is now compromised.
