Pahaliyah Brown announced his candidacy for the King County Council District 7 seat, focusing on fairness, public safety, and enhanced representation for South King County. With over 30 years of experience in King County government, he aims to address the long-standing neglect of his district. His campaign prioritizes transparency, accountability, and community engagement, emphasizing the need for regular town halls and advisory boards. Brown's platform also includes public safety, access to green spaces, and support for local businesses. He draws on his unique background as the son of a retired Air Force veteran and a Korean immigrant, which informs his leadership approach.

District 7 encompasses diverse cities like Federal Way and Auburn, housing a vibrant community that Brown believes deserves better representation. The current council member, Pete von Reichbauer, is seeking reelection, making the upcoming election crucial for local governance.
