A Global City with a Local Heart. With Community at the Center.
Hi, I'm Claire Sumadiwirya. As a small business owner, community leader, and single mom, I'm running for Bellevue City Council to create a city for everyone. From local communities and businesses to marginalized groups and larger organizations, let's build a more inclusive, affordable, and vibrant Bellevue together.
My Vision for Bellevue
I'm committed to addressing the issues that matter most to our community. Here's what I'm passionate about:
Collaborative Leadership
I will work to bridge divides and ensure every voice is heard in our city's decisions.
Affordable Housing
I will champion innovative solutions to make housing accessible for all Bellevue residents.
Small Business Support
As a business owner myself, I will advocate for policies that help local businesses thrive.
Community Safety
I will work to ensure every neighborhood is safe, welcoming, and well-supported.
