Chang's campaign is prioritizing affordable housing, childcare, climate change, economic development, and public safety. Overall, Chang leans more progressive on social issues and moderate on economic issues. Using his background in real estate, Chang supports diverse housing development and advocates for re-evaluating zoning regulations to increase density. On public safety, Chang advocates for co-responder models, coupling plain-clothes police officers with mental health professionals to implement holistic and de-escalation tactics in crisis response. He has also provided more details about his plans for making child care more affordable than most local candidates.
Chang has close ties with the Seattle King County Realtors, whose PAC has historically endorsed more conservative candidates. He is an RPAC "Hall of Fame" contributor, having donated a total of more than $25,000. Through his work with the Realtors, Chang has collaborated closely with some progressive legislators on housing issues, which has earned him multiple endorsements in this race, including all three Democrats from the 41st District.
Chang is a good choice if you're looking for new leadership on the Bellevue City Council that is more willing to disrupt the status quo.
