Position Papers
Strong Public Schools and the State Budget
As your councilmember I assure you that I will fight for our children and their education. I will use my office to make education a priority and work to preserve our education funds.
Crime & Public Safety
I am 100 percent committed to both the mayor's and police chief's commitment to increasing our police department.
In Support of Mass Transit
We must reduce traffic congestion on the Westside and in the Valley. Expanding mass transit (with the Expo Line and Orange Line extension) is one way to get started! I am for immediate remedies and common sense traffic solutions, such as more left turn lanes and synchronized lights.
