OPINION — Christian Serena’s op-ed is a list of things I didn’t do. I didn’t write SB 1543, lobby for it, or vote on it.

Every contribution to my campaign is publicly disclosed, and no one gets my vote for a check. I can’t control who funds Better Together or how it spends. 
Serena says follow the money. I agree, so follow all of it.

I share residents’ concerns about overdevelopment and have stated publicly that any growth needs to be responsible and follow the city plan. Anyone who has followed my campaign knows exactly where I stand.
