Record

Votes, not promises

A handful of votes and fights that show how she works. Each of these is a matter of public record — the meeting minutes are at citynmb.com.

Brought the water plant back under city control
Voted to return the city's water utility to local control, improving accountability over water quality and, by the campaign's accounting, saving taxpayers millions.
An officer in every school
Supported placing police officers in every school in the city and protecting that funding through budget cycles.
Funded body cameras and police equipment
Backed funding to update police equipment and to put body-worn cameras on officers — accountability and officer protection in the same vote.
Fiscally responsible policies and lower taxes
Supported a set of fiscally responsible budget policies that reduced the tax burden on residents.
Preserved parks and green space
Consistently voted to protect the city's parks and remaining green space from conversion and sale.
Pushed to investigate garbage service costs
Called for a hard look at what residents are actually paying for sanitation service, rather than letting the contract roll over unexamined.
