I’ve long been an advocate for making neighborhood pools as available for Tucsonans, particularly young people, as possible. 

The trouble has always been funding. It took a long time for our budget to recover from the Great Recession, and one of the ways we saved money was by not opening pools and keeping limited schedules for the ones we opened.

I’ve mulled over what to say about the mass shooting in Uvalde, Texas. Unfortunately, I’ve had to comment about mass shootings too many times while I’ve been in office, including one that killed and wounded several of my friends shortly after I was appointed to the council. 

I’ll leave the comments on this one to Steve Kerr, a person many of us in Tucson have admired for decades.
