Public Safety for the West Valley
Too much of Los Angeles feels lawless right now: home burglaries, catalytic converter theft, street takeovers, graffiti, illegal dumping. LAPD has the fewest officers since the 1990s, serving far more people. West Valley families deserve better. Here's my plan.
Priorities in the Plan
The Path Forward
-
Zero Tolerance for Quality-of-Life Crime
Public drug use, vandalism, illegal dumping, illegal vending, party houses, street racing. These are the crimes that decide how safe your block actually feels. As a Council Member, I'll work with LAPD to make sure these crimes are prioritized.
-
Safe Parks, Safe Schools, Safe Houses of Worship
Our parks should be an oasis, not a place where kids walk past open drug use during a Little League game. The City has 18 park rangers for all of Los Angeles. They need real resources to do the job.

Stop Crime Before It Starts
Youth programs are one of the best public safety investments we have. I'm a strong supporter of LAPD Cadets, which keeps kids busy and builds the next generation of officers at the same time.
