A second-time mayoral candidate, she credits the Fair Elections Fund with allowing her to create a more polished campaign.
Despite losing the 2019 mayoral race, Calderón picked up right where she left off once it was over: criticizing Hancock. As a staunch critic of the mayor, Calderón fit in well as chief of staff for Denver City Council repCalderón loves dogs and the outdoors; she's also a huge fan of dark chocolate and"won't eat the cheap stuff," she says.
We will also establish sanitation stations. Unhoused people deserve the basic human dignity of places to relieve and wash, and dispose of trash. In addition to helping people to care for themselves, this will reduce the interactions between unhoused people and law enforcement, and will also benefit tourists and residents who are also in need of accessing public restrooms and trash receptacles.The multiple crises we face in Denver share a similar root: economic and racial inequality.
However, our city has yet to be made whole by the ongoing COVID-19 crisis. One thing I will pursue as mayor is working to find ways to subsidize the rent of tenants who are still struggling to make ends meet after months of lost wages. I will also support efforts to ensure employers give workers appropriate sick time so as to not continue the spread of the virus in the pursuit of profit.
Particularly in communities of color that historically are denied access to public and private resources, public schools can fill that gap. With sufficient investment in public schools, schools can help alleviate long-standing inequities, and help alleviate poverty, community safety issues, public health challenges, and environmental justice in surrounding communities.Currently, Denver has less than three quarters of the recommended park space per capita.
We can also create more affordable housing by legalizing accessory dwelling units, which let homeowners build rental units on unused space and avoid displacement. We can also mandate new developments offer housing for low- and moderate-income families at or below 50 percent of the area median income . By including a 50 percent AMI—a lower AMI than currently utilized—we can expand truly affordable housing that is accessible to a broader population of low-income Denverites.
