Inició su carrera empresarial a los 29 años, fundando una compañía que emplearía a más de 3000 personas en 25 países. Esa experiencia la aplicó a lucro , better angels, y esta busca dar hogar a los desamparados de los ángeles.
Sandra cervantes nos presenta al candidato adam miller. Miller es empresario con trayectoria en el sector tecnológico y ahora busca la alcaldía de los ángeles con propuestas en economía, vivienda e indigencia.
Muchas gracias por acompañarnos, señor miller. Usted viene del mundo empresarial y dice saber cómo hacer crecer la economía.
Cómo se traduce eso en empleos mejor pagados y costo de vida más bajo para los angelinos? Living in have to lower the cost of rent and housing which means we must build more housing and more effectively i'm doing affordable housing with better angels with my non-profits.
I know how to get housing done faster and cheaper and that's the city. We also have to create more jobs.
We have to support small businesses. We have to bring big corporations back to l.
A. And we have to bring the entertainment industry back to all that can be done by somebody who understands business and knows how to get things done.
Mencionó el tema de la vivienda. Usted planea que la solución es aumentar la oferta y facilitar la construcción, pero eso toma tiempo.
Cuándo verían alivio las familias que hoy no pueden pagar la renta? Overnight this is a problem that's been perpetuate over a long time.
We can turn it around right away, though we can immediately. Get more housing built it might take a couple years for those homes to be completed, but during my administration we would be able housing by dramatically reducing the time it takes to get a permit by simplifying the way you get inspections done by supporting people from a financial perspective to build more housing and get more done at the same time.
We need to continue to protect renters and organization we created the most effective eviction prevention program in the city keeping over documented and undocumented angelinos housed who had already received an eviction notice and we were able to do it at 90 percent less than it would cost of those people were out on the street. Y considera que ese plan trabajaría a una escala más grande a nivel ciudad.
Absolutely absolutely. Scale up with better angels is doing by working with landlords to keep people housed by having better processes around how the city is managing evictions and the eviction notification process by giving people the resources and entitlements that they need and by having a because people when they receive an eviction notice don't have much time often they have fewer than seven days to find a solve that problem and we've done it over and over again.
Helping thousands of angelinos stay housed and that's what i've done as a private citizen. So amaury.
A la par también está el tema de la indigencia. Usted ha criticado cómo la ciudad maneja esta situación.
Qué haría diferente para mantener a las personas fuera de la calle? Number one we have to have more focus on prevention.
If your house is flooding the first thing you should probably do is turn off the fost and we're not doing that here in l. A number two.
We have to completely revamp how we're delivering services. So that they're not redundant and they're much more efficient in better coordinated with the county and number three.
We have to utilize our shelter beds much more effectively and build more shelter beds at much lower cost. There are proven programs that enable us to build beds at under ten thousand a unit under ten thousand and bed with tiny home villages and instead we're spending eighty five thousand dollars a year.
So the numbers are dramatically different. We could drive much more efficiency and get people off the street into shelter and get them the services.
They need by providing exactly the kind of services people on the street are mentally ill some have substance abuse they're addicted some are just coming out of foster care and they don't have any support some are senior citizens who need help because they can afford rent anymore. They all have different problems.
They need different services and we have to have differentiated approaches to homelessness and this exactly what better angels is already doing today. Otro tema que también le importa mucho a la comunidad es la seguridad pública.
Usted propone más oficiales en las calles y más tecnología. Por qué la gente debería creer que ese enfoque sí va a mejorar la seguridad?
Los ángeles as less than half the number of protocols of most other major cities. That's what if you call the police.
It takes a really long time to respond if they ever respond at all. We have to solve that problem.
We have to double the patrols part of the way to do that is to make it a major focus. Área part of the way to do that is to increase the number of officers.
We have from six hundred thousand in part of the way to do that is by technological innovation. Our department works like it was sixty the same is true of our fire department.
We have to bring into the twenty-first century. There's a lot of innovations that have happened.
Not just over the last fifty or 70 years, but over the can put into place. We see this happening in other major cities.
It works and we need to get it done in l. A.
Eso significaría una mayor inversión en este departamento. A lot of opportunity to get more money by getting rid of all the efficiency in the government.
I've been running businesses for thirty five years. I ran a public company.
I know how to manage finances and this city was a tremendous amount of money. What we need to do is be more efficient in the delivery of all the services that angelinos need and reallocate those dollars to the things people care about which is public safety and infrastructure those are the things that the government in the city is most responsible for the safety of all the residents and the infrastructure of the city and we're doing a terrible job at both.
We have to reallocate our funding to focus on both those areas. Esta ciudad también es de inmigrantes.
Los ángeles es una ciudad santuario. Si es electo alcalde, qué papel jugaría su administración frente a los operativos de ice.
Residents? Los ángeles is 37% latino los ángeles is a city of immigrants is how we became such have to protect that so i would upfold being a sanctuary city.
I would leverage every power of the mere to fight. The federal government theorizing our citizens and i would make sure that we're doing everything possible to protect all angelinos.
Con un mensaje para los los latinos votar por usted? Pienso que está a tiempo para algo diferente.
Yo estoy algo diferente. Yo puedo cambiar la
