As such, the coalition will advocate for <br />reasonable public safety reforms, especially with regard to retail theft, burglary, and assault, <br />all while maintaining a lens of equity. <br /> <br />Economic Development <br />The Tri-Valley region is an innovation hub that spurs job growth, sustains a healthy <br />economy, and provides a high quality of life for residents and business.
