I was just denied access and threatened with arrest again by #seattlepolice for not having ID while trying to get to my home in #CapitolHill. They claim they were given new orders this morning.

I went to a different entrance and the #seattlepolice there told another story - ID was not required. However they claim that they never received the initial orders to stop IDing https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤔" title="Denkendes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Denkendes Gesicht">

For context, here is the Deputy Mayor telling me on a conference call that ID will no longer be required as of 7:00PM on July 1st https://twitter.com/slydesilva/status/1278513951119048704">https://twitter.com/slydesilv...

And before you little gremlins get at me about my voice, it& #39;s intentionally pitch raised to be non-threatening so I don& #39;t get arrested.

UPDATE: I reached out the Deputy Mayor about the incident. This is her reply, affirming they the city policy re: ID is still in place
