I am a passionate supporter for reforming our criminal justice system, however, we cannot forget about the victims of violent crimes and that victims deserve justice. This isn’t justice for the transgender victim attacked recently at a light rail station.
“I am a progressive and damn proud to be one. I am also a pragmatic leader who believes we have to bring our community together to move forward together.”
