40.在西雅图地区扩大针对中低收入者的住房数量需要长期努力,其中不乏政治和经济挑战。住房问题发展到今天这个地步用了很多年的时间,而西雅图地区要找到一条出路也绝非一朝一夕之功。我们在微软内部做出介入决定时就认识到,考虑到问题的复杂性,毫无疑问,我们需要克服某种程度的争议,而且这不是一两天就能完成的事。但我们感到,重要的是参与其中,而不是袖手旁观,眼睁睁地看着局势继续恶化。

我们准备参与其中的一个原因是有华盛顿州前州长克里斯汀·葛瑞格尔的领导。在担任三届州检察长和两届州长后,她在2013年有机会决定下一步如何利用自己的时间和大量精力。我们说服她帮助我们找到并随后担任“挑战西雅图”的首席执行官,将本地区最大的公司团结在一起,做出更大的公民贡献。她对住房问题的承诺以及她在整个地区和政界享有的信誉发挥了重要作用,最终说服我们这是一项我们可以通过意义非凡的方式帮助应对的挑战。有关“挑战西雅图”的信息请浏览https://www.challenge-seattle.com/。
