Tania Solé, a Green Party candidate running for Assembly in D21, is the daughter of a Guatemalan immigrant and granddaughter of German Jewish refugees who came to this country to escape Hitler. She speaks English, French, Spanish and Hebrew. Before coming to District 21 thirty years ago, she lived worldwide in Central America, Europe and Asia. She is an environmental entrepreneur having worked for AirSpeQ in Berkeley and now BlueDesal in Sausalito. Her platform is focused on sustainability in everything including air, water, housing and healthcare. Sixty five percent of CA residents do not support SB9 as they understand that build, build, build does not in any way make housing more affordable. The pandemic has also made clear that anything other than universal healthcare really single payer healthcare is also not sustainable. She needs additional funds to support an advertising push that will allow her to place in the crowded field of primary candidates vying to represent D21 and continue to the general election in November.

  • SB 9 Does not solve the home affordability crisis - build, build, build is not sustainable!
  • Sustainable policies in air, water, housing and healthcare are critical!
  • In the midst of a global pandemic, universal healthcare is a must!
Golda Meir and Angela Merkel - While they didn't get everything right, they tried their best to lead and to create consensus among their citizens.
Babysitting as a teenager. I babysat for almost five years before I went to college.
Working relationship to further the wellbeing of the citizens.
No. Term limits are necessary and all citizens should be required to serve in government to better understand the issues it is trying to solve.
Sometimes. However periodically there is such a thing as right and wrong in which case compromise is not in the interests of the community at large.
