What I like best about living in Santa Fe is the favorite waitstaff at local restaurants welcoming my dog by name (Bear); familiar faces everywhere, friendly smiles (in congested Cerrillos Road traffic, even); and giving back to the community that holds me here. To this end, I am a strong proponent of public banking. Imagine divesting from corporate giants and having the opportunity to invest in our city. This could greatly improve our infrastructure, fiscal accountability, and access to affordable housing as we strive to eradicate homelessness in Santa Fe. I urge my neighbors and colleagues to join in this effort to bridge the economic divide in the city we call home. We can make the difference in our City Different.
