I worked on product development engineering projects for 30+ years. You need to do root cause analysis to solve problems thoroughly. Under Mayor Gainey, Pittsburgh has been doing that.

One pilot project to improve worker safety also saved $10M!

In Pittsburgh, the Democratic primary is the "real" election. If you vote by mail, your ballot is coming soon! The primary is 5/20.

We're flooded with unpleasant mailers, mainly by PACs supporting Corey O'Connor. They're using racist tropes & telling weirdly easily disproved lies.

1/5

CommUnity Good Morning 🌞

Thank you to everyone who packed Hazelwood Brew House last night to support my re-election!

This race is about whether our government serves the people or the powerful — I always choose the people.

But our work to build a city for all isn't finished.

This is what being principled Mayor looks like.
We need a mayor who stands up for EVERY student and their right to be safe and freely express themselves without fear of visa revocation and ICE detention.

Thank you, @gaineyformayor.com

I was really frustrated by Pittsburgh's URA in the past -- the landbank didn't produce any new housing for anyone!

Since Mayor Gainey was elected, we've seen a lot of movement from the URA, in addition to the Mayor's other work on affordable housing.
Pittsburgh launches initiative to protect housing affordability
The mayor said he's trying to counter predatory landlords that he says are destroying Pittsburgh's neighborhoods.

Doing work to advocate for mamas, especially Black mamas, has been one that means so much to me. I’m truly honored to receive this award from the PA Black Maternal Health Caucus🥹

I always say this work isn’t about the awards, it’s about SAVING THE LIVES of our mamas and babies.

I don't think I'm going to vote for the guy who my college slumlord wants to be the Mayor of Pittsburgh.

Mayoral candidates point fingers on developer donations and affordable housing
O'Connor's campaign fundraised with Walnut Capital, bringing in over $90,000, but Gainey's campaign accepted thousands from area construction firms.

If Corey understood his old council district, the mayor’s zoning legislation, or even the existing zoning code, he would know that Greenfield and Lincoln Place are almost entirely R1 and R2, so wouldn't be impacted by IZ hardly any, if at all. www.publicsource.org/pittsburgh-m...

In today’s political climate meeting with folks like this should be a HARD NO. Our elected officials are supposed to serve the people, and these guys are not for the people. There is NO EXCUSE.

Pgh! I’m joining PPS Board Director, Devon Taliaferro, for a fundraiser for @gaineyformayor.com!

There’s a choice in how Pgh will navigate in this political climate. I need a leader fighting & working to Keep Pittsburgh Home for the many, not the few. Don’t let the tropes & propaganda fool you!

CommUnity. I am proud to fight every single day to make Pittsburgh work for real people, not just the rich + powerful

I've taken on big fights against greedy corporations, union busters, gentrifiers, + so-called charities to make our city safe and affordable.

Excited to be on BlueSky to share more

First official post here: Good MORNING on this 3rd day of #BlackHistoryMonth. Feels good coming off of a great Sunday with Pittsburgh Mayor Ed Gainey’s doing the damn thing at the 14th Ward IDC Mayor forum + Queen Bey👑 & her AOTY win. Nobody is ruining this for me. Y’all have a great day on purpose✊🏽
