- REPRODUCTIVE RIGHTS ARE HUMAN RIGHTS. My experience serving on the board of Cedar River Clinics, who provide reproductive health, abortion care, and gender affirming care across Washington, underscores to me how vital it is to invest in ensuring that every person who needs abortion care can get it through reinforcing funding, services, infrastructure, and providers. More, we need to pay critical attention to Eastern Washington where services are scarce and the impact of hospital mergers as we work to scale up access to and use of long-acting reversible contraception within a context of comprehensive sexuality education. We need leaders with public health expertise and steadfast passion for defending our rights at this moment.
- PUBLIC HEALTH IS PUBLIC SAFETY. Everyone deserves to feel safe, and to be safe. We all want someone to come when we have an emergency. And we all have experienced OR born witness to the harm that over policing and police brutality can enact. As our work for accountability and reform continues, we face an impasse and an untenable workforce shortage. The State can and must play a vital role in making us safer. 1) Expand our understanding of what public safety is so that we address the connections between the many challenges we face, including homelessness, COVID-19, gun violence, and on. 2) Invest upstream to ensure a strong start in life. 3) Build a mental and behavioral health system to meet the needs of our most vulnerable.
- Our public education system in Washington State should be the best in the country, tapping the incredible braintrust we have across our State. As a Seattle Public School parent since 2008, my children have regularly had some of the most exceptional educators I’ve ever encountered - and yet our schools remain in crisis mode with parents propping them up, students falling through the cracks, students of color being left behind, and our teachers carrying an untenable burden. Strong public schools are the backbone of a strong society. Every student deserves excellence in education, and every student should have every opportunity to excel in an inclusive setting. Sustainable, stable, and robust funding for our schools is key.
My approach to leadership is about leading from behind, creating space for others, building a big table, and centering the most impacted – it is also about asking what people want as the starting point to frame the challenge, the need, the opportunity, and the priorities.
Through my work in HIV and sexual and reproductive health and rights, I know that we have the most transformative impact and durable solutions when the most affected are the ones informing the decision-making that affects their lives.
As a part of my work here at home and around the world – I am a convener, coalition builder, and as my friend/ colleague/ mentor named it – a transparent collaborator. I ask questions, listen, learn, and am not afraid to ask whether we are asking the right questions, and assess where the rubber meets the road for an old fashioned turn of phrase – is what we are doing going to lead to tangible change in someone’s life?
I follow the data, believe that you have to bring in those who see things differently, and hold accountability for my actions.
A fundamental pillar of this is a belief in the power of participation and true representation, meaning my job as a candidate and public servant is to represent the will of the people and to serve others.
Over my lifetime – I have witnessed the power of communities to lead and bring forward the solutions that transform their lives – this is the philosophy that I carry with me.
