Dunn Delivers Metro Van to Enumclaw Senior Center
 Councilmember Reagan Dunn drops off a retired Metro van at the Enumclaw Senior Center
I recently paid a visit to the Enumclaw Senior Center, where I was pleased to donate a surplus King County Metro van! The Senior Center will use their new van to connect seniors across the Enumclaw Plateau with much-needed services, and also to deliver hot meals to seniors who are homebound. I am glad to support this important work!
Dunn Seeks to Fix Failed State Policing Laws around Vehicular Pursuits
 Councilmember Reagan Dunn speaks with local law enforcement officers
After the State Legislature passed HB 1054, imposing strict rules on when law enforcement is allowed to pursue a vehicle, King County saw a shocking 175% surge in instances of suspects alluding police during traffic stops.
In order to help find a fix to this problem, this week I introduced legislation requesting King County to develop new guidelines around police vehicular pursuits and advocate for those guidelines to be implemented at the state level. I believe it would be irresponsible to sit back and give active criminals the option to simply ignore law enforcement stops. With this legislation, King County would begin to have important conversations at the state level about how we can fix this failed law for the safety of our communities.
