In fact, the Washington city’s tax fight with Amazon is a critical lesson for how cities around the country can take on corporate behemoths and win. Amazon’s presence in Seattle has resulted in an influx of highly paid tech workers, which has in turn fueled gentrification, raised rents and increased homelessness. With Kshama Sawant, the fiery Socialist member of Seattle’s City Council, leading the battle, the council on May 14 unanimously passed a so-called “head-tax” on large corporations in the face of stiff opposition from Amazon. The tax, which was originally proposed as $500 per employee for corporations making more than $20 million a year, was downgraded to $275 per employee when the vote finally took place. The modest revenues will help fund low-income housing and address homelessness.
