It was a proud moment when I was elected to represent the people of District 2 on the County Commission in 1998. It has been my privilege to earn your trust and confidence as I fight for issues important to our neighborhoods, cities and the future of Broward County. During my tenure on the County Commission I served as Broward County Mayor in 2005 and as Vice-Mayor in 2004. My title may have changed from time to time, my goals didn’t!

My first priority continues to be my work as an outspoken advocate for protecting Broward’s quality of life. Whether fighting for a common sense approach to growth management planning, protecting our environment, securing fair wages for workers, doing what’s right in order to create attainable housing, or creating a public transportation system that moves people not cars; it is your home, family and neighborhood I am working to sustain.

I know that these are lofty goals, but by staying focused on building a better future for Broward I have made a lot of headway!
