Hello, and welcome to Love for Oakland, my run for the Oakland City Council! I am thrilled to have the opportunity to connect with you and share my vision for our vibrant city. As a proud resident of Oakland for 28 years, I am deeply committed to fostering positive change and building a thriving community that values safety, prosperity, and inclusivity for all residents.
In the heart of our Love for Oakland campaign lies a vision where safe streets, clean neighborhoods, and a thriving local economy are not just aspirations, but the norm. Together, we will prioritize key issues that directly impact the well-being and prosperity of our city. From addressing homelessness and workforce challenges to promoting business growth, enhancing public safety, and supporting arts and culture, I am dedicated to empowering Oakland through action and collaboration.
I invite you to join me on this journey as we work together to create a brighter future for Oakland. Together, we can build a community where everyone has the opportunity to thrive. Thank you for your support, and I look forward to the positive changes we will achieve together.
With warmth and gratitude,
Tonya
