I ran under the clean elections process. I worked very hard to bring about clean elections, now we have shown that it works.
I have a strong commitment to community-based governance - I hold that elected officials are accountable to the electorate, not special interests.
As City Councilor, I will:
Ø Stand up for an open and honest city government;
Ø Work to make our neighborhoods safer by balancing traditional law enforcement with drug and alcohol treatment and prevention programs;
Ø Fight for better transit to address increasing traffic congestion and carbon emissions; and;
Ø Stand up for planned growth so that older neighborhoods aren’t subsidizing sprawl development
Rey has been a strong advocate for Clean Elections Legislation and Ethics Reform.
He's running clean because it's the only way to guarantee the elimination of conflicts of interests.
"The only interests I'm here to serve is the people's interests." - Rey
