Now it's time to focus on basics for people in our neighborhoods... and real ethics reform at City Hall.

In many ways, our campaign this year will be the same as last time: We're still going to focus on fixing up basics and cleaning up ethics at City Hall.

And we did it because it's time for City Hall to stop looking out for City Hall and start looking out for the people like you and me who are footing the bill.

There's still is a status-quo group at City Hall who likes things done the old way, behind closed doors.

In the year since we brought things into the open with a clean breath of fresh air at City Hall, we have learned about corrupt spending practices and unethical conflicts of interest that waste your money... and keep Dallas from being the great city of our dreams.

Others like City Hall the old way, when they could make deals behind closed doors with your tax money.
