Legislative priorities
1. I will focus on affordability, which is one of the top concerns expressed by my constituents. I will work to decrease wasteful spending in the county and continue to push the county to make fiscal decisions based on reasonable revenue projections.

2. I will continue to fight to ensure that county resources are applied equitably to all communities to invest in park and infrastructure projects – not just ones that are politically favored.

3. My office addressed over 1,000 constituent cases in our first two years, and I will continue to build relationships with community members in the newly reapportioned First District.
