“Today, Stockton has turned a corner, 我们的创新理念——从青年奖学金到全民基本收入计划——正在成为全国的头条新闻,” said Mayor Tubbs. “我们的努力使我们的城市成为十年来犯罪率最低的城市，并使我们成为全国财政最健康的城市之一。.”

In the Bay Area, Mayor Libby Schaaf created Oakland’s first Department of Transportation, 谁的以股权为基础的铺路计划是全国首个此类计划，将使以前服务不足的社区更安全，同时解决该市数十年的基础设施积压问题. Mayor Schaaf also helped launch KIVA Oakland, 为奥克兰数以百计的小企业主提供了零利息的众筹贷款.

“奥克兰对经济正义的看法侧重于所有居民的健康和财富,” said Mayor Schaaf. “Supporting residents through innovative no-interest lending programs, like KIVA, and forging an equity lens onto public projects – so all roads get paved, in all neighborhoods – ensures that we are moving toward a more fair, and just, community.”
