Why I Am Running for City Council

By MarthaAnne C. Viurquiz

Candidate for Council Member; City of Bell Gardens

This information is provided by the candidate
I'm running for office with our next generation in mind. I am ready to make practical decisions in the interests of the People of Bell Gardens. I will correct the problems our community is facing. I have the knowledge, experience and the know-how to lead and move Bell Gardens forward. I will work for $1 a year and will contribute my entire council salary to an education fund for the youth of Bell Gardens. I will give the money back to my community (This is my way of showing what public service is all about). To the People of Bell Gardens, "Vote for me and you'll see what I can do for Bell Gardens with just $1 a year."

It is time for "We the people" to take back our government. With over 25 years of public service and looking after our community, I see that my work is just beginning. A politician worries about the next election, a leader worries about the next generation.
