"I gave my blood for the work I did, and my message to them is shame on them."
In a contentious Scottsdale City Council meeting, dozens spoke out against an ordinance that eliminates DEI programs and funding. One of those speakers was Don Logan, the previous Scottsdale Diversity Director. Logan was injured by a white supremacist in a targeted package bomb attack in the early 2000's. He and many others, including @AZNAACP, left disappointed and angry as the council approved the ordinance in a 5-2 vote ⬇️⬇️⬇️ @abc15

Slow Down & Save A Life: This heartbreaking story is motivation to drive slower, for people and animals--- especially at night. Thx to this mom's commitment, our wildlife tracking programs, & Southwest Wildlife: the kittens get a second chance at life. yahoo.com/news/dying-mountai…
Since 2021, Scottsdale has helped senior citizens and families/single moms transition out of homelessness. The bridge housing program has an 84% success rate & no calls for PD service. Safe, effective, good for Scottsdale & Valley. @scottsdaleazgov, @azfamily @alexisdomm

Scottsdale Water wants to hear from residents! 📣 Due to shortages, it's our goal is to reduce water use by at least 5% throughout the city. Share your thoughts about new ideas for water conservation. Take the quick 10 question survey at polco.us/svphek
Governor Hobbs signed SB1432 into law this week. I discussed the law w/@markwbrodie on The Show. The law ends the use of Scottsdale water in RVF & establishes an agency to secure water for these residents. Listen Here: youtu.be/7A8w7hlBdFg @kjzzphoenix @scottsdaleazgov

Public safety is our job, not optional. I will never spend $450,000 and waste 18 months to put public safety on a ballot. A job Council is obligated to do now and without added cost to tax payers. youtube.com/watch?v=Cf9WVVcc…
