Let's start with Step 1 -- take a few minutes to learn about the Save Our Services Campaign! LEARN ABOUT THE CAMPAIGN The Save Our Services campaign is a project of Councilmember Pete Constant, the District 1 representative on the San José City Council, that asks you to voice your concern about the San José City Budget and the proposed service reductions by taking 3 simple steps: 1) Learn about the problem in just a few minutes, which you're doing right now. 2) Share with your family members, friends, neighbors and colleagues what the budget cuts will mean to them and help them get their voices heard! 3) Take Action by contacting City officials, such as the mayor, city council, city manager and union leaders. Initially, Save Our Services asks residents and businesses to simply: Build relationships with their elected representatives and City staff and share with them why our City services are critical to our community. Elected representatives and their staffs must know that they have constituents who care about the San José budget and its impacts on our neighborhoods.Beyond that, while we will want our representatives to change flawed policies and pieces of legislation, we want them to support a positive and hopeful future for San José by adopting budget policies that will correct the structural budget deficit once and for all! Our goal is to fully engage the community, neighborhood-by-neighborhood and business-by-business, in the public policy process. If everyone does their small part, then, together, we will change politics as usual and restore our faith in City Hall! |
