The Vision
The CommUNITY of tomorrow reflects Tom's vision of a unified Reno, where the strength of our community lies in our collective unity. A true community is built upon a foundation of togetherness and shared values, where we harness the power of our collective abilities to prosper and overcome the obstacles we face. This is an aspiration we must diligently pursue with focus and intent. Despite modern America often overlooking this fundamental principle, it has been at the foundation of human existence for all of time. A truly united Reno CommUNITY will elevate all aspects of life.
"We cannot have a true community without genuine unity. I believe it is the duty of our leaders to create more opportunities to unite, as a city, for the betterment of us all as a group, both socially and economically. Social prosperity and economic prosperity are inseparable." TVR
PRINCIPLES
Tom's vision is driven by three core principles: evolve, empower, and elevate.
EVOLVE
"Evolution is essential for progress. While honoring our history and roots, I recognize the need for innovative solutions to modern challenges. Our city, like the universe itself, is in a constant state of change. By embracing fresh ideas and diverse perspectives, we can adapt and thrive as we shape the Reno of the future. Embracing change extends to our political representatives. We need leaders with fresh perspectives, dedicated to representing the people with authenticity, unbound by ties to their office. Elected office was never intended to be a career."
EMPOWER
"I believe in harnessing the power of our community to create meaningful change from within. Empowerment is at the heart of my vision. I aim to utilize the resources and collective strength of the people of Reno to address pressing issues, from improving our roads to supporting the homeless. Through active programs and opportunities for involvement, the campaign will provide clear pathways for individuals to make a tangible difference in our city."
ELEVATE
"The term elevate represents our collective journey towards a better tomorrow. It encompasses personal growth, community cohesion, and economic prosperity. Together, we aspire to elevate every aspect of Reno life, fostering a sense of optimism and possibility for all. The campaign is not just about change; it's about progress towards a brighter, more inclusive future for every resident of our resilient and rebellious city. Join me as we rise, evolve, and elevate together."
