LA is HOT. But does it have to be this hot? Did you know shade from a single tree can drop temps by 20° or more? Yet working-class neighborhoods like South LA, East LA, and the Valley get the least tree coverage and bear the brunt of extreme heat. Let's change that and finally cool things down for everyone.

Angelenos have lost faith in the capacity of the city to spend their tax dollars wisely. To restore the public’s trust, we must reduce liability expenses, audit homelessness spending, repair broken infrastructure, and deliver on basic city services. We also need to bring back business investment. In 2019, DTLA was responsible for 40% of LA’s hotel, sales, and business taxes, despite being only 1.4% of the city’s land area. Six years later, 1/3 of DTLA office space is vacant. We must invest in making DTLA safe, clean and vibrant so that businesses invest again.

It’s not okay for anyone to be sleeping on the sidewalk in the world’s richest country. We can fix this. My promise: When I’m mayor, we’ll cut tents and encampments in half by the Olympics and bring everyone in tents and encampments indoors by the end of my first term.

When you call 911 to report a crime, you shouldn’t be put on hold. Many Angelenos don’t trust official crime statistics, because when responses are slow, crimes don’t get reported. On council, I’ve voted against contracts and projects pushed by powerful interests that have bankrupted the city and taken money away from basic city services. When I’m mayor, 911 calls will be answered immediately, and the right help will come quickly.

It’s moving, but where are the people? This project was supposed to open over three years ago and is almost $1 billion over budget. What went wrong? The project’s contractor, LINXS, has essentially been extorting the city for years. Now Mayor Bass’ Airport Commissioners are making YOU pay for it by tripling fees on Uber and Lyft rides.
