Fabian Robinson For Mayor of Oakland Rebuilding Oakland: A Plan to Restore the City's Greatness The community is fed up with what politicians have done to our city. We've had enough of reporters who endorse flawed candidates and try to turn them into superstars. Oakland is not blind to what's going on. My name is Fabian Robinson, and I was born and raised in Oakland. I have a four-point plan to restore our city's greatness. 1. Public Safety: Oakland has been plagued by crime for far too long. It's time to take action and hire more Oakland police officers. To make our city safer, we need to add 200 officers to the force. Additionally, we will prioritize hiring Oakland residents for all city jobs, including law enforcement positions. If there are no qualified candidates locally, then we will look to other cities, but Oakland citizens will always have the first opportunity. 2. Economic Growth: Part of my plan is to bring a casino and convention center to Oakland, which would generate $1 billion annually. This will help pull the city out of debt and create over 6,000 jobs for the Oakland community. We will also work to bring a theme park to Oakland, providing new opportunities for our youth in a fresh and exciting environment. Oakland must become a hub for manufacturing. I will create incentives for manufacturing companies to set up shop here, and I envision Oakland becoming a manufacturing powerhouse in the U.S. Finally, I will collaborate with the new owners of the Oakland Coliseum to bring a professional sports team back to the city. 3. Ending Homelessness: Homelessness is a critical issue in Oakland, and we have many empty buildings that have been abandoned for years. To address this, we will hold slumlords accountable—if you don't fix up your property, you will be pushed out. Every Oakland resident deserves a roof over their head. I will work with housing expert Shawn Danino on a plan to end homelessness, making Oakland’s housing affordable, accessible, and sustainable. We will build more low-income housing and ensure no one is left behind. As mayor, I promise no new housing taxes—this is a commitment I will keep. 4. Mental Health: Mental health is a priority in my plan for Oakland. I will bring 4 to 5 new mental health clinics to the city, ensuring that residents have access to therapy and medication when needed. We must work together to create a healthier Oakland for everyone. Vote for Pastor Fabian Robinson for Mayor of Oakland. Together, we can build a safer, stronger, and more prosperous city for all. [1] |
