🎙️ A lot is happening in Seattle and across our region, and our President & CEO Joe Nguyen recently joined Week in Review to dig into it.

Joe joined host Bill Radke, reporter and writer Lauryn Bray, and Seattle Channel host and producer Brian Callanan for a wide ranging conversation on some of the issues shaping the news right now.

From the legal battle over mail in ballots and the evolving trade relationship with Canada to Seattle’s search for a new police chief, the group covered a lot of ground and explored what these developments could mean for our communities and economy.

There is an urgent need for blood donors in our region, and Chamber President & CEO Joe Nguyá»…n is partnering with member Bloodworks Northwest to lead the charge.

Bloodworks Northwest has declared a Code Red emergency: 1,000 donations are needed per day to ensure 95% of Pacific Northwest hospitals are properly supplied. YOU can help the shortage by donating blood at one of the 15 Bloodworks donor centers or 90 mobile drives each week across Western Washington and Oregon. Book an appointment or a walk-in visit—every donation can make a life-saving impact.

Joe has donated, and he's passing the challenge to Seattle Mariners President of Business Operations Kevin Martinez! Let's keep the momentum going and help our region move beyond Code Red.
