My Top Issues

Education

Monica remains steadfast in her support of expanded educational opportunities beyond what the School Board provides.

Criminal Justice / Public Safety

Our MBPD needs to remain visible and diligent to make sure our residents and visitors feel safe.

Infrastructure / Transportation

Overdevelopment has significantly reduced much of the charm of our city. To change that, we must ensure our community receives more equitable and adequate public benefits from new development.

Infrastructure / Transportation

Our sanitation teams work tirelessly. We need to ensure that the private waste haulers do a better job.

Education

Our public schools are among the best in the district, but we must make sure they stay that way by investing in arts, culture, and tutoring programs.

Infrastructure / Transportation

We can achieve cleaner, safer, and drier streets through a simple program of regularly cleaning out storm drains and investing in infrastructure upgrades when needed.

Infrastructure / Transportation

We need to take real action to reduce traffic by enlarging our trolley fleet and supporting a robust park-and-ride program for commuters who live or work off the Beach.
