Barbara Lee promises to make her hometown better by being sworn in as the first black woman of Oakland

While being sworn in like Oakland, the 52nd and first black female mayor of California, Barbara Lee promised to get her hometown “Back on the right way,” Politics Reports.

After the former Congress Woman lost its primary senate campaign and witnessed the fall of her predecessor, Lee supports the efforts to tackle rising issues in the city, such as crime and budget problems. Lee promises to bring hope back.

“We are going into a new era for Oakland. I know that this city stands for serious challenges – budget deficits, public safety, housing and homelessness – but I also know who we are: a city of Dreamers, Doers and Fighters. We beat our weight, and we appear for,” wrote 78, 78, wrote on X.

“As a mayor, I am dedicated to rebuilding trust, repairing services and delivering real results for our neighborhoods – from cleaner streets to safer communities to more affordable houses.”

Admittedly, the history maker – known as the first black woman who represents in the state meeting, the Senate of the State, the Congress and now the first black woman who serves as mayor of Oakland – is the history maker – known as the first black woman – against an estimate $ 87 million spending gap, on the edge of banks, at the top of a growing issue of homes. Political consultant Jason Overman said that budget problems might be the most important obstacle for Lee. “She is going to inherit everything, but is still expected to blow the magic wand that she has built up in congress in recent decades,” he said.

“This existential of a budget crisis has a funny way to shorten political marriage trips.”

Lee, however, revealed a plan during her sworn in ceremony instead of pointing out the guilt of past leadership. She insisted on investments in the city and promised taxpayer Dollars to spend more effectively with a commitment to transparency and accountability.

“I want to reinstall hope, you were clear about the willing of a government that you can trust to resolve our tax challenges, safety, housing and homelessness,” she said.

Congresswoman Lateeuwah Simon called Lee “a champion for human rights, the forgotten, for peace and democracy”, according to KTVU. Legumes supported that thOughts by emphasizing what she wants to do within the first 100 days of her term of office. Her team will bring in people “from all layers of life” to identify better ways in which the town hall can serve the capacity of the city and “a new era of prosperity and progress.”

Proponents on social media apparently have faith in the new mayor, who wish her well and hope for a better lay in the country. “Mayor Lee, I have always admired your conviction and a clear vision for what is needed to improve our society,” @funkybatdraws written. “As a former voter of your district, I pray that you can be an effective agent for a positive change in Oakland. It is a beautiful city, but it needs some loud medicine!”
