By signing this pledge, I commit to:

1. Putting Working Families First
Supporting policy that lifts wages, expands opportunity, and reduces barriers.

2. Supporting Housing That Reflects Local Income
Connecting public policy to the real wages of Merced residents.

3. Holding Corporate Actors Accountable
Ensuring that those who profit from Merced reinvest into Merced.

4. Strengthening the Local Workforce Through Public Contracts
Ensuring public dollars support jobs, skills, and community stability.

5. Prioritizing Transparency & Community Engagement
Respecting the public trust and building policy with community input.

I affirm that labor creates stability — and I commit to governance that reflects that truth.
