The company announced on March 11 that it will relocate all 1,800 workers from its office at Third Avenue and Pine Street downtown, citing an increase in violent crime in particular. Amazon is calling the move temporary.<\/p>\n<p>Seattle\u2019s police budget has been cut by $36 million since 2019<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGiven recent incidents near Third and Pine, we\u2019re providing employees currently at that location with alternative office space elsewhere,\u201d an Amazon spokesman told DailyMail.com in a statement. \u201cWe are hopeful that conditions will improve and that we will be able to bring employees back to this location when it is safe to do so.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Just what might cause \u201cconditions\u201d to \u201cimprove\u201d is the question, as Seattle\u2019s decline is a direct result of leftist unwillingness or inability to deal with crime and rampant drug use.<\/p>\n<p>Amazon employs a total of 1.1 million people in the U.S, and 75,000 in Seattle. The 1,800 employees at the Seattle office are being given the \u201cchoice of an alternate work location because of the safety concerns.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Seattle\u2019s City Council approved a 2022 budget that cuts police department spending by more than $7 million, making for the $35.6 million in total cuts over the past three years. Residents clamoring for public safety in a once-beautiful city are ignored.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Seattle has basically become a \u201cwoke\u201d paradise where crime, squalor, drug addiction, \u201cdefunding\u201d the police and fleeing businesses are the norm.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":2315279,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1378962","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1378962","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1378962"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1378962\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2315279"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1378962"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1378962"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1378962"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
