Oaklanders have always overcome challenges by coming together. At this critical moment, we must not be a city divided, but a community united. With the support of Oakland Firefighters, business and labor leaders, and community I’ve made the decision to run for Mayor of Oakland – to unite our City; make it stronger and safer; and improve opportunity for everyone.
