Kevin Faulconer is not telling the truth about Terra Lawson-Remer

Lie #1: Faulconer says Lawson-Remer “missed over half” of her Board of Supervisors meetings.

The Truth: Lawson-Remer has attended over 95% of the Board of Supervisors meetings since her election. You can review this record for yourself HERE.

Lie #2: Faulconer says “Lawson-Remer never attended a meeting of the Regional Task Force on Homelessness”.

The truth:  Lawson-Remer is not even a member of the Regional Task Force on Homelessness.

Lie #3:  Faulconer had to admit he was lying about the Regional Task Force Board but said he was referring to a stakeholder subcommittee called the “Continuation of Care” (CoC) that Terra did not attend.

The truth:  Lawson-Remer consistently sent an expert staff member to represent her at the CoC meetings. The Supervisor or her staff were present at 11 out of 13 meetings over the past 3 years.

Lie #4:  Faulconer is lying to voters to distract attention from his own terrible attendance record. 

The truth:  An independent investigation by KPBS revealed “Mayor Faulconer missed 84% of SANDAG meetings”, missing dozens of key votes on major road repair, traffic, and transit issues. (KPBS, 5/5/16).  Faulconer also missed 97% of the San Diego Metropolitan Transit System board meetings.
