“I am committed to ensuring
equality for all our citizens. As
diversity is important to the
social health of a city, so is the
diversity of our economy. I am
proud of the strides this city has
made, from our success with
implementation of the Fair
Contracting and Employment
Strategy to specific programs like
the Sheltered Market Program. Of
course, none of this would be
possible without the support of
many citizens. So, I want to take
this opportunity to thank those
who have provided us their
steadfast devotion to doing the
right thing. With your help, I truly
believe that economic equality is
in our reach."
