关于弗洛博士

我是一名注册民主党人竞选市长，因为我从小就经历过最好的和最差的制度。我想吸取我在经历失落的孩子、目睹不公正待遇的青年、成年后以及公共卫生和政策倡导领域的在职专业人士时吸取的经验教训，帮助我们的城市改造，使未来每个人的需求都能得到满足。

As mayor, I’ll provide the leadership to solve our homelessness and housing crisis, make our streets safer, and create thousands of quality jobs while protecting our climate. As the four-term chair of Sacramento’s Measure U committee, which advised the city on how to spend revenue from a sales tax increase that people voted for, I pushed city leaders to spend our hard-earned taxpayer money in the ways that the public demanded: solutions to homelessness, and programs for our youth. When city officials failed to listen to the people, and refused to take real steps to solve the growing problems on our streets, I decided to run for office. With support from thousands of volunteers across Sacramento, we’re building a people-powered movement for change.

成长

我的父母在教初中时相识；妈妈教英语，爸爸教数学。由两位中学老师抚养长大，我对文学、艺术、体育和社区服务产生了热爱，同时也学习了批判性思维以及信任和尊重我的声音的重要性。

My parents often sat at the dining room table with their former students helping them with college admissions essays. Dad was a girls basketball coach, and mom brought me along to drive disabled seniors to their appointments. They taught me the importance of community and taking care of each other.

点燃我的火Fire

我在 11 岁时因充血性心力衰竭失去了父亲。他当时 47 岁。我父亲吸纽波特香烟是在烟草公司对已知危害撒谎并大量向黑人社区销售的时候开始吸烟的。他还曾在石棉受干扰的建筑物中工作。如果我父亲一生的政策保护他，他的死很可能是可以避免的。 That’s why today I fight for policies that enable us to live longer, healthier, and happier lives with our loved ones, like making sure we can afford a roof over our heads.

使用我的声音Impact in California

我的职业生涯始于加州公共卫生部门，担任加州流行病学调查服务研究员，后来在加利福尼亚大学旧金山分校研究女性预防性健康计划。

I used my experience and education to advocate for preventive services for women and access to free wellness visits, maternity care coverage, breast pumps, and birth control.

I transitioned to Senior Policy Director at Public Health Advocates to make a bigger impact for people across California. In my six years there, we have passed state and local policies related to marijuana legalization, community safety, nutrition, diabetes prevention, and racial equity.

I’ve seen firsthand how corporate lobbyists influence government to drive up healthcare costs. I’ve also seen how people can stand up together to make government work for all of us.

As a leader on Sacramento’s Active Transportation Commission, Mayor’s Commission on Climate Change, Sacramento County Sheriff’s Outreach Community Advisory Board, and the Measure U Community Advisory Commission I’ve advocated for policies that improve people’s lives in our city.

As mayor, I’ll collaborate with leaders across the city and state to reduce homelessness, improve our public transportation, make housing more affordable, and make City Hall serve the people.

在我的一生中，我曾帮助照顾患有慢性病的家庭成员，也看到了经济适用房的好处，以及资源有限对老龄化或残障人士带来的弊端。

California is estimated to be the fifth largest economy in the world today, just behind Germany, but larger than India. As the capital of the richest state in the richest country in the world, it’s outrageous that we have thousands of people sleeping in the streets. Our city has a huge budget that could be used to make our lives better, but it’s been woefully mismanaged.

As mayor, I’ll work with city council and leaders across the city to determine how we can spend our resources effectively to achieve our top priorities: reduce homelessness, expand affordable housing, improve public safety, and launch a Green New Deal to create thousands of great jobs while protecting our climate and improving our infrastructure.

Why should we trust the same politicians who got Sacramento into this situation to get us out of it? While I respect my opponents in this race, they had their chance in government to make a difference, but things kept getting worse. It’s time for new leadership in Sacramento. More is possible for our city. I look forward to working together to create a city where all of us can thrive.
