What We Might Learn from Mayor McLaughlin & the Richmond City Council:
	* Community gardens, bike paths, bay trail construction, and park renovations have created a healthy environment
	* Through advancing solar installation and creating a model green job training program, Richmond has graduated hundreds of residents now working in the green economy
	* As an area hit hard by bank speculators and foreclosures, the Mayor of Richmond has used the power of eminent domain and other tools to hold banks and financial institutions accountable.
	* City programs have strengthened local schools
	* A recently approved municipal ID for all Richmond residents, allows everyone-- including immigrant residents--access to services such as bank accounts
	* A progressive coalition has made all the above possible. 
Sponsored by: Sunnyvale Mayor Jim Griffith, San Jose Councilmember Ash Kalra, Affordable Housing Network, Community Homeless Alliance Ministry (CHAM), and Santa Clara County Green Party
