An equity focused Austin is paramount to our integrity as a city. I would absolutely continue to work with social justice and equity focused organizations to ensure we address disparities in police reform and beyond. As a former executive planning member of the organization I feel certain that my relationship with AJC will be beneficial in collaborative efforts moving forward. The data is clear to support the need for added accountability and oversight in the deployment of law enforcement into our communities. That said- I feel equally committed to negotiations that fairly represent the interest of the first responders who protect and serve with honor and integrity.
