Housing Too many people are still living on the street, and the system is too slow and fragmented. We need a more effective approach that focuses on prevention, treatment, housing, and measurable results. I believe Alameda County must do more to help people get off the street and into stable, long-term solutions. Economy Families are dealing with rising costs, layoffs, and rapid technological change. County government should do more to help workers and small businesses adapt. I will support stronger workforce training, faster response to layoffs, and practical policies that help residents prepare for changes driven by automation and AI. Criminal Justice / Public Safety Public safety means more than enforcement. It means faster crisis response, better mental health and addiction services, stronger diversion and reentry programs, and better coordination so fewer people fall through the cracks. I will work for safer neighborhoods by improving the county systems that respond to crisis and support prevention.
