Under the proposed legislation, drug offenders would be barred from certain areas of Seattle. The City Attorney (DA) of Seattle, has proposed new legislation that would prohibit drug offenders from certain Seattle neighborhoods. The proposed legislation (SODA) is a bill that would grant a judge the authority to prohibit defendants who commit crimes involving drugs and related offenses around designated locations in the International District and Downtown Seattle.
