Climate & Clean Environment

I'm a career scientist - not a career politician. During my time on the City Council, I have prioritized making Irvine a truly green city that leaves no one behind. I will continue to advocate for clean power with good-paying, long-term clean energy jobs. I will hold polluters accountable. We will have a city with clear air, clean water, a stable climate, and a well-paid, skilled, and trained workforce.

Equality and Safety

All of our community members deserve to feel safe and valued within our city. I am committed to fighting for the most vulnerable among us, including our immigrant and undocumented communities. I reject fear-based enforcement in our city, and stand firmly with every resident who deserves dignity, due process, and the right to live without fear.

Affordability

It is unconscionable that the people who feed us, teach us, take care of and love our children, build and repair our homes, and guard our health cannot afford to live in our community. I will continue to ensure that Irvine secures affordable housing to meet the needs of these working families, young professionals, seniors, and veterans. I support union labor on housing projects.

Expanding Irvine's Infrastructure

Irvine is one of the fastest-growing cities in the country, and our infrastructure must keep up. I will continue to fight for capital improvements, more retail and recreational centers, libraries, fiber networks, and multi-modal transportation solutions. I support project labor agreements, workforce agreements, and local hires.

Transparency and Accountability

Good government requires transparency and accountability. I will continue to act with integrity to ensure our community’s needs come first.
