Mayor Bob Filner: Make Poverty a Priority
Center on Policy Initiatives
I urge you to make the fight against working poverty a priority in San Diego. I will eagerly stand with you in this crucial mission.
Why is this important?
It's a tragedy that anyone in San Diego should live in poverty, especially those who work hard every day and still struggle to support themselves or a family.
Our city government can do much to combat working poverty, with policies that focus on living wages, access to affordable healthcare and creating quality jobs for San Diego residents.
When all working people can support themselves and have money in their pockets to spend at local businesses, the entire city will benefit and we’ll finally be on our way to rebuilding our local economy.
