Kaur faced criticism from Mario Bravo over her work as a consultant for charter schools.

The charter school issue wasn’t the only one targeted by Bravo. His litany of attacks also included the assertion that Kaur “tried to reduce public safety” by backing Proposition A, a proposed charter amendment designed to expand the city’s cite-and-release program and decriminalize abortion and small-scale marijuana possession.
They argued that her values were all wrong for District 1. They contended that, if elected, she would damage the already fragile state of traditional public schools in our community.Ultimately, these campaign attacks failed. Kaur ousted Bravo in commanding fashion, receiving more than 59 percent of the vote.
Second, it’s worth remembering that former Councilman Rey Saldaña spent nearly three years of his council tenure working as the chief engagement officer for the KIPP charter-school organization. Because charter schools have been expanding at a rapid rate in recent years, it’s perfectly reasonable to worry about the way they’re pulling revenue away from traditional public schools.
