I am asking for your vote to represent you as an AD24 delegate.

 

I am currently an elected CADEM delegate, committed to a progressive party agenda and the success of Democratic candidates nationally, in California, and regionally. Locally, I am a member of the Peninsula Democratic Club, the Democratic Volunteer Center, the Dean Democratic Club, and the 21st Century Club. I have been active with fundraising and grassroots support for Democratic candidates in California and nationally so that we will return our nation to a path of progress based on justice and opportunity for all.

 

I am a former mayor and returning Palo Alto City Councilmember with a strong record of building consensus to achieve progress. I am deeply committed to social and economic equality. We need stronger action to safeguard the diversity of moderate- and lower-income residents who are the backbone of our communities.

 

I will support Democratic candidates with progressive programs to assure our region and state is socially, economically, and environmentally equitable including; stronger renter protections, living wages for all, gender and ethnic diversity and protections, equal pre-K-12 and higher educational opportunities for all, and environmental leadership. We need tax reform so that big businesses pay their fair share of investments in affordable housing, transportation, and social programs that enable equal opportunity.

 

The COVID emergency has shown that we are capable of transformative societal changes and financial commitments to address a big emergency. As we emerge from this emergency, we must pivot with a comparable commitment to solving the even greater crisis of climate change and economic inequities.

 

I would be honored to represent you.
