| - My plan will make Pittsburgh the City of YES. Yes, we will create family-sustaining jobs. Yes, we will ensure that all workers will have fair treatment and fair wages. Yes, we will lead the nation as the city of green innovation and green opportunity. Yes, we will revitalize small neighborhoods by empowering small-business owners. Yes, we will fight crime by providing real economic opportunities and real hope for the future. YES, I pledge to run an inclusive and open campaign. I will voluntarily adhere to strict campaign contribution limits. I will limit an individual's total contributions to $2,400, and I will limit a household's total to $4,800. I do this as a step to assure the citizens of Pittsburgh that each and every one of their voices will be heard. And YES, we will cast the chains of pay-to-play politics off from the Mayor's door. I guarantee that the door to my office, YOUR OFFICE, will always be open. Pittsburgh is the heart and soul of Western Pennsylvania and the industry based here is the backbone of this region. It is my goal to make it a shining example of what cities can be; a city of Yes. We will focus on:
* Public Safety -I will support our top notch police, fire, and emergency medical services, giving them the latest tools and technologies while supporting the individuals who risk their lives to keep us safe.
* Public Transit —We will strategically address public transportation to encourage companies not just to move here, but to stay here and to ensure that all neighborhoods have access to the transportation necessary to get work, doctors appointments, and everything they need.
* Public Trust -In my administration the door to the Mayor’s office will remain open to everyone, and the era of pay-for-play will be at an end. As Mayor, I personally guarantee that all City contracts will be awarded in an open, fair, and completely transparent manner.
* Public Investment -This is The City of Champions, not only on the field, but in our classrooms and boardrooms. We have world class universities and some of the nation’s greatest arts communities. As Mayor, it will be one of my core goals to invest in this intellectual trust, to keep young entrepreneurs in the City, and to support an arts community that enriches our minds and spirits. To that end, my administration will work with both the County and State to improve our tax system offering residents incentives to live, work, innovate, and build within the City’s limits.
* Public Empowerment -I pledge to run an inclusive and open campaign. I will adhere to strict campaign contribution limits in order to guarantee to the citizens of Pittsburgh that each and every one of their voices will be heard. I will empower every Pittsburgher, – Democrat, Republican, and Independent; my supporter or the supporter of my opposition; residents of every neighborhood across this great city – empower every Pittsburgher to be involved in government and to know that their City is working with them and for them.
