California Democratic candidates vying for RepBarbaraLee's House seat will have to address a surge in crime across multiple cities. California's 12th Congressional District is considered to have some of the most crime-ridden areas in state.
California's 12th Congressional District is considered to have some of the most crime-ridden areas in the Golden State, with Oakland consistently ranking as one of the most dangerous cities in the nation. A report this year from MoneyGreek analyzed FBI crime statistics from 2021 and ranked Oakland as the 11th most dangerous United States city to live in.
Simon was appointed by then-Governor Jerry Brown to serve on the Board of Trustees for California State University to discuss racial justice in education. In 2016, Simon was elected to serve on the BART Board of Directors for District 7, and she became president of the board in 2020. Tran said she will tackle the district's rise in criminal activity by having a comprehensive and coordinated approach to public safety, meaning she’ll work with multiple departments across different levels to address crime.
“And we want our police officers to do their job,” Tran said. “We want them to do their job in a way that doesn't reproduce the harm against our black and brown communities. And at the same time, the victims of violence are needing support and need support in an expedient manner.” Tran, who worked on the Oakland Community Policing Advisory Board, said many believe having police officers respond to nonviolent emergencies is extremely costly. Instead, Tran wants to address public safety through an environmental and community-building lens, ending the polarization between law enforcement and community members.
