BUDGET EQUITY TOOL

ja_3-2.jpg

Today I co-sponsored my first ordinance — a budget equity tool, drafted by Councilwoman Keisha Dorsey.⁣

When this passes the full council next week all of our city departments will be required to have vision statements, SMART (specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, time-based) goals, and key performance indicators to show progress of racial equity.⁣

If government broke it then government needs to fix it, and our budget equity tool is about to start fixin'.⁣

Happy #BlackHistoryMonth
