"Also among Menchaca’s primary opponents this year are Gonzalez, Delvis Valdes, an attorney and former community board member, and Chris Miao, a real estate attorney. (Carmen Hulbert is the Green Party candidate in the race, awaiting the Democratic nominee in the general election.)"

We, the voters of District 38, have the power to change our community. We must stand up and embrace our civic responsibility of voting for elected officials who will fight on our behalf and who will be held accountable for their actions, statements, and votes. I believe that new leadership must be brought to our city and it must come from the people, not from leaders of Wall Street or established politicians. This city must be led by individuals with empathy and compassion.  And after much thought and contemplation, I put myself forward for your consideration to become your next City Council member from District 38.

 Here are Carmen's positions on the issues:

• Affordable Housing
• Strong Public School System
• Universal Health Care
• Living Wages & Green Jobs
• Strong Unions
• End of Police Abuse & Broken Windows
• Black Lives Matter
• Protection for Immigrants
• Comprehensive Participatory Budget
• Improved Transportation

Welcome to District 38
