Hello,
I’m interested in the DEI Commission.
I’m a first generation Hispanic and have been living in MLT since 2005. Currently I work as a Media Specialist and before I was the Publisher of the largest Latino newspaper in Washington.
Thanks,
Alvaro
Thank you Alvaro! I hope you reach out to the City Clerk’s office. I am excited to see what this commission can do, and hope to volunteer in support of events/round tables etc.
Don’t worry about Linda, she’s always like that.
Elaine, I can always count on you to comment on my post because you don’t like and approve of what I say.
Don’t worry about Elaine, she’s always like that.
I agree with Elaine. Pay no mind to Linda.
In these hard economic times, the city should not be creating new programs especially a PC program. We do not need a DEI program because no one is excluded from something if they want to be a part of it. We all have the opportunity to be included if we so desire. Such programs are not necessary and a waste.
