I stand with our region’s climate advocates and youth leaders to demand what’s long overdue: polluters paying their fair share. If you profit from environmental damage, you should be responsible for the cost of repair.
In the face of a budget crisis, the city can right their priorities and move towards equity for our city’s most vulnerable and underserved neighborhoods rather than continuing to support the hoarding of wealth among our most affluent.

“Allowing such property tax relief to homeowners with homes that have an average market value of between $2 million to $4 million, and higher, is not only inequitable but highly unconscionable at a time of unprecedented budget deficits.” - Ricardo Flores

Wonderful to see this! So tired of every community meeting I attend being boomers complaining about density and bike lanes. Last night Bravo @ottaunited.
We joined a dozen students from @ottaunited & Associated Students who took time out of finals week to demand fair housing for University City & all of San Diego

Other members of the planning commission, including Chair Hofman, also shared their youth in community planning. “I apologize for what I saw, that was pretty appalling. And thank you for sticking up for yourselves and keep moving forward.”

Vice Chair Moden: “I know it’s very hard and it takes a lot of courage to go to those meetings at your age to begin with and then to be met with that kind of vitriol, it’s extremely difficult.”
We shared testimony and this video at SD Planning Commission https://t.co/2bcVy8bVvB
“I’m really proud of you guys … we need our younger generations to speak up, so thank you.” Thank you, Vice Chair @moden_kelly, for your inspiring words and support. We want to forge a future of housing and economic opportunity for all, and that takes all of us.
