I am proud to announce my campaign for Menlo Park City Council. Here's why:
We are surviving instead of thriving. The cost of living, threats to our democracy, and decisions about affordable housing and economic development have ripped our community apart. And the stakes are high: policy decisions made today will impact generations of Menlo Park residents to come. Menlo Park losing local control stops with me.
This campaign will bring our city back together to tackle the hardest issues facing us now and in the future. This campaign will lift our community’s voice to the powers that be to make sure we always have the final say. This campaign will fight for a future where we have the resources to support all of our neighbors, instead of a select few.
We can - and we will - make Menlo Park the best place to live life, do business, raise a family, and age in place. Join us and consider making a contribution today.
