Our perspective on the performance of Mayor Matt Mahan and the city council on issues that matter to us, and the people we serve and organize.

“Every person we work with can be an instrument for change, can fight for change and push for more resources and policies that protect them. I feel really grateful to see that power and that resilience from so many in our community to make that happen.”
