Dear Friends and Neighbors: 

Please join me in our movement for a Stronger and United Oakland.

Time and time again, Oaklanders have faced our toughest obstacles by uniting to meet our challenges. At this critical moment, we must not be a city divided, but a community united.

Together, we will continue and succeed in the fight for Oakland’s prosperity and progress.  

Working together, we will provide shelter/services/programs to our unhoused residents, invest in public safety and violence prevention programs, and provide more housing, education, and economic development in historically underrepresented communities.

Working together, we can restore Oakland as a beacon for innovators and dreamers; for artists and builders; and for women, minority entrepreneurs, and small business owners.  

Working together, we will create opportunities that lift all families and communities.

I will be a hands-on Mayor who will address the structural challenges that impact everything from our budget to whether we can walk our streets safely at night.

Join me in building a brighter future for One Oakland. 

–Barbara Lee
